On behalf of the J.E. Washington Family and its employees, I welcome you to our on-line presence.

In 1981, the first J. E. Washington Funeral Services establishment opened its doors within the city of Youngstown, Ohio. Since then, families in Youngstown and its surrounding communities have been treated with the highest quality care and compassion as they have experienced the loss of a loved one. Our reputation, built on personal & dedicated service, is recognized in the northeast Ohio and western Pennsylvania corridor.

The funeral service is an expression that a death has occurred… but more importantly, it acknowledges that a life has been lived. Our commitment is to assist you by providing a meaningful service that honors and reflects the life to be celebrated.

Our experienced professional staff is an integral part of this community. We live here, worship here and serve here! J.E. Washington Funeral Services has a sustained commitment of service which is reflective in the community engagement of the staff.

While many funeral homes establishments are being purchased and managed as part of corporate franchises, the families which select J. E. Washington Funeral Services will experience a welcome difference. We remain dedicated to providing caring, compassionate and dignified service to our community.

Today, we serve families from our two tastefully appointed locations within the Mahoning-Shenango Valley area. The hallmark of our services includes our attention to details, the inviting facilities, and the genuine concern of our family and staff to those who call on us in the time of need.

With more than three decades of quality service to the Mahoning-Shenango Valley, we remain staunchly committed to meet and exceed the expectations of our clientele. The J.E. Washington staff is blessed to consider you a neighbor and friend.

James E. Washington

President

James E. Washington | CFSP/Supervisor

He is a member of Buckeye State Funeral Directors & Embalmers Association and the National Funeral Directors & Morticians Association. He is also a member of the Academy of Professional Funeral Service Practice. Only ten per cent of the nation’s funeral directors have earned membership in the academy and James is the first and only member in the city of Youngstown.

James E. Washington, CFSP, has earned the designation of Certified Funeral Service Practitioner from the Academy of Professional Funeral Service Practice Inc.

This is noted by the CFSP acronym, and this licensed funeral director must meet or exceed defined criteria annually to continue use of this prestigious designation. A select few have distinguished themselves among their peers within the funeral service profession as they continue their education to exceed the highest standards of care. This achievement is especially notable because James has voluntarily elected to participate in quality educational and service opportunities that far surpass what the funeral service licensing board in Ohio requires. James has committed to a program of lifelong learning to serve you and families in your community with the level of excellence expected of a CFSP.

To learn more about the value of working with a CFSP, please ask James, call the Academy at (866) 431-CFSP or visit us at www.apfsp.org. The Board of Trustees of the Academy of Professional Funeral Service Practice commends you for choosing to put your trust in the hands of a Certified Funeral Service Practitioner.
