Saint-Antoine inauguration

As a means of substantiating its regional presence and better serving its customers in the Lower Laurentians, Maison funéraire Trudel inaugurates its third location in Saint-Antoine in 1990.

Saint-Jérôme expansion

In 1955, Arthur, son of Hervé Trudel, takes over the business after having worked there since the age of 17. With his diploma from the Institut de thanatologie du Québec in hand, he purchases in 1959 the “Maison Nantel”, a heritage building, where he sets up the business. In 1978, Michel and Arthur Trudel undertake the expansion and renovation of the building while maintaining its original architectural charm. Maison Funéraire Trudel stands today as a welcoming, well-kept heritage building infused with history and character.
