Lux & Schnepp Funeral HomeObituaries · Crystal, MI

Lux & Schnepp Funeral Home in Crystal is part of the Lux Funeral Homes family, which traces its roots to 1937 when William and Agnes Moody established Moody Funeral Home in downtown Alma. After operating the business together as a farming family from Forest Hill, the Moodys moved to 531 N. State Street in the early 1940s, where Agnes Moody continued running the funeral home herself after obtaining her funeral director's license following her husband's death in 1955.

The business changed hands to longtime employee William Wolfel in 1961 and became Moody-Wolfel Funeral Home until 1980, when Charles R. Lux Sr. and his newly licensed son Paul purchased it. The Lux family retained all previous owners' names, creating Lux-Moody-Wolfel Funeral Home to honor those who had served the community for decades.

Over the next 30 years, Paul Lux expanded the family's presence throughout Montcalm County by acquiring Dodge Funeral Home in Middleton, Schnepp Funeral Homes in Riverdale, Carson City, and Crystal, Whiting Funeral Chapel in Breckenridge, and St. Louis Funeral Home. In 2013, Paul's children Nicholas and Laura purchased Lux Funeral Homes, continuing the family's multi-generational commitment to the area.
