Services
The Lake Avenue location features multiple chapels with flexible configuration options, including a large-capacity chapel accommodating up to 250 guests. The 2000 renovation created a separate Arrangements Center across the courtyard from the main funeral home, housing the casket selection room with both digital and physical display options. On-site amenities include a coffee lounge, reception areas for catered events, and audio/video equipment for tribute videos. The facility offers meeting space for corporate and organizational use in addition to funeral services.
The funeral home emphasizes personalized celebrations that reflect individual passions, whether families seek simple cremation, traditional services, or elaborate send-offs with catered receptions and live entertainment.
D.O. McComb & Sons Funeral Homes - Lakeside Park stands as the flagship location of Fort Wayne's most established funeral home network, celebrating 100 years of continuous service from 1925 to 2025. The Lake Avenue facility opened in 1928, just three years after founder D.O. McComb launched the business from East Lewis Street. Formerly superintendent of Allen County Schools, McComb brought community trust built over two decades in public education to his new venture.
Situated two blocks from Lakeside Park & Rose Garden and just north of downtown Fort Wayne, this location serves as the cornerstone of the company's five-location network. A major 2000 renovation expanded the central business office and created the standalone Arrangements Center across the courtyardâa dedicated space where families from all D.O. McComb locations make funeral arrangements. The facility joined the Dignity Memorial network in 2016, combining local heritage with national resources.
