The business was established in 1961, when business partners Derek Crosby and William Eaves began trading as joiners and undertakers 'Crosby & Eaves' from premises at Flatt Walks, Whitehaven. They moved the business to its current location on High Road, Kells, Whitehaven in 1970.
After Derek passed away in 1974, William continued to build the business, aided by his wife, Margaret, his father William Snr, then later by William's brother Richard. William's son Philip joined in 1992, followed by his son-in-law Mike in 2007, then his daughter Julia in 2008.
Mike, Philip and Julia now run the business, aided by Assistant Graham Hodgson and Funeral Director Michael Branney
