The original 1941 chapel at 5th and Pierce was Amarillo's first purpose-built funeral chapel, establishing the firm's long-standing commitment to dedicated funeral facilities.
The firm emphasizes personalized service delivery, with staff specifically named in reviews for hands-on attention to detail including makeup artistry, obituary preparation, and service coordination.
LaGrone-Blackburn-Shaw Funeral Directors traces its origins to 1901, making it one of Amarillo's longest-serving funeral establishments. E.M. Blackburn, Sr. arrived in 1918 at the invitation of his brothers Walter and Jeff, purchasing the Eakle Funeral Home that year and opening Blackburn's Funeral Directors on South Polk Street in 1919. The original building stood where Interstate 40 now intersects South Polk Street. As the business expanded, Blackburn relocated to 5th and Pierce, constructing Amarillo's first dedicated funeral chapel in 1941. Today the firm operates two Amarillo locations: the Coulter Street facility at 8310 S Coulter and a second location at 1505 Martin Road. The business maintains a 4.7-star Google rating from 35 reviews.
