Rasmussen Harrison Funeral Home, located in Barryville, NY, has been providing personal and compassionate funeral services for over 122 years. Led by third-generation funeral director Patrick J Harrison and his wife Peg Harrison, their commitment to the community began in 1898 when Niels Peter Rasmussen, a Danish immigrant, recognized the need for professional funeral services in the area. With a rich heritage and dedication to service, Rasmussen Harrison Funeral Home continues to offer caring and competent support to families during times of bereavement.
Originally established by N.P. Rasmussen, the funeral home expanded its services in 1941 with the addition of an ambulance service, which operated 24/7 until 1969. In 1969, Niels' son Oscar Rasmussen built a second location in Barryville, known as Gray Rasmussen Funeral Home, which is now recognized as the Harrison Rasmussen Funeral Home of Barryville, Inc. In 1998, the third generation, Ronald and Robert Rasmussen, remodeled the facility to honor their 100th anniversary and ensure their commitment to service well into the 21st century.
