Goodwin Family Funeral Home started serving families in 1944, when it was established as Flummerfelt Funeral Home. Ross and Mavorette Flummerfelt opened the home in their residence, the Raab house. In the 1950’s, they were joined by Jerry Goodwin. After leaving to pursue a degree from Indianapolis Mortuary School, Jerry went to Northern Indiana to complete his apprenticeship in 1955. He then returned Vincennes to work with the Flummerfelt’s once again.
