Welcome to the team at VanInwegen-Kenny Funeral Homes
Monticello, NY and Wurtsboro, NY — Milestone Funeral Partners is pleased to announce that VanInwegen-Kenny, Inc. Funeral Homes, serving the communities of Monticello and Wurtsboro, New York, have joined the Milestone family of funeral homes.
For generations, VanInwegen-Kenny Funeral Homes have been a trusted source of compassionate care and professional service for families throughout Sullivan County. The Monticello location, established at its present site in 1944, has long been recognized for its commitment to honoring lives and supporting families through some of life's most difficult moments.
Since the late 1980s, both the Monticello and Wurtsboro funeral homes have been owned and operated by the Kenny family, whose dedication to excellence and community service has helped shape the firms' strong reputation. Since 1998, Joe Kenny has managed both locations, continuing a tradition of personalized care while building meaningful relationships with generations of families throughout the region.
"We are honored to welcome Joe Kenny and the entire VanInwegen-Kenny team to Milestone Funeral Partners," said Josh Siegel, CEO of Milestone Funeral Partners. "Their longstanding commitment to serving families with compassion, integrity, and professionalism aligns perfectly with our mission. We look forward to supporting their continued success while preserving the traditions and community relationships that have made these funeral homes so respected."
Joe Kenny will continue leading operations at both locations, ensuring that families receive the same exceptional level of care they have come to expect. The funeral homes will remain deeply rooted in their communities, maintaining their longstanding traditions while benefiting from the additional resources and support available through Milestone Funeral Partners.
"Joining Milestone allows us to continue focusing on what matters most—serving families and our communities," said Joe Kenny. "We are proud of the legacy built by our family and grateful for the trust families have placed in us over the years. We look forward to continuing that tradition with the support of the Milestone team."
Milestone Funeral Partners partners with exceptional funeral home and cemetery operators who share a commitment to providing meaningful service, fostering strong community connections, and preserving the unique heritage of the businesses they serve. The addition of VanInwegen-Kenny Funeral Homes further strengthens Milestone's presence in New York and reinforces its dedication to supporting locally respected funeral care providers.
As VanInwegen-Kenny Funeral Homes begin this new chapter, their mission remains unchanged: to provide compassionate guidance, personalized care, and exceptional service to every family they are privileged to serve.
