In the heart of our community, Fiocchi Funeral Homes stands as a trusted friend to many families. Richard and Kathleen Fiocchi, with their daughters Ruth-Anne, Teresa, and Bridgett, have been providing compassionate care for over sixteen years. Rich, a Southern Illinois University grad, brought his expertise back home, taking over the former Jensen Funeral Home in Princeton in 2007 and expanding to Cherry in 2008. Here, amidst life's toughest moments, the Fiocchi family offers a comforting presence, ensuring each service is not just a farewell but a loving tribute to a life well-lived.
