Proud to be locally-owned and independent, Buchanan & Cody Funeral was created from two well respected, century old firms. The Gillham-Buchanan Funeral Home and the Cody & Son Memorial Home merged in 2007 to better serve families in west central Illinois. Planning is underway for the construction of a new state-of -the-art facility in Jacksonville during 2008 to serve as headquarters.
