Robinson Funeral Home announces expansion to Spencer and breaks ground April 23rd

SPENCER, IA – Robinson Funeral Home, a cornerstone of compassionate service in Spirit Lake, is proud to announce the expansion of its legacy into the Spencer community. This second location marks a significant milestone in owner Korey Robinson’s lifelong dedication to Iowa families, signaling the growth of a locally owned, multigenerational institution.

A Legacy Spanning Generations

For Korey Robinson, this expansion is the culmination of over 30 years of unwavering commitment to the funeral industry in Iowa. Robinson’s career has been defined by the belief that families deserve seamless, dignified care.

The move to Spencer also heralds an exciting new chapter: the arrival of the second generation of the Robinson family, their son, Spencer Robinson, who will graduate from Mortuary School in August, will be joining the staff soon, the next generation ensures that the values of integrity and personal service established by Korey will continue for decades to come, solidifying Robinson Funeral Home as a true multigenerational, family-owned business.

“Serving families across Iowa for three decades has been the greatest honor of my life,” says Robinson. “Bringing the second generation into the fold as we expand to Spencer allows us to provide a unique promise of continuity. We aren’t just a business; we are a family serving families.”

Innovative Facilities for the Spencer Community

The new Spencer location is designed with flexibility and community needs in mind, offering features unique to the local area:

  • Expansive Chapel: A modern sanctuary with seating for 150 guests.
  • Exclusive Lunch Facility: This location will house a separate lunch facility, the only one of its kind offered by a funeral home in the community. * Versatile Capacity: The facility can expand seating by another 100 guests for a single large service or accommodate two separate families simultaneously with complete privacy.
  • Community Events: Beyond funeral services, this versatile space will be available to the Spencer community for private events and gatherings.

Total Continuity: Private Cremation Services

A key differentiator for the Robinson brand is their privately owned crematorium. Unlike many providers, Korey ensures that loved ones never leave the diligent care of their professional staff. This private oversight provides families with the ultimate peace of mind, knowing their loved ones are treated with the highest level of respect under a single, trusted roof.

Owned and operated by Korey and his wife Kerri, the firm combines 30 years of industry experience with the security of a private crematory.
