Welcome to the team at VanInwegen-Kenny Funeral Homes

Monticello, NY & 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.

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.

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.

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.
