Moving into Montana: Rollings acquires Schnider Funeral Home and O’Connor Funeral Services
GREAT FALLS, MONTANA – NewBridge Group is pleased to announce the sale of Schnider Funeral Home and O’Connor Funeral Services to Rollings Funeral Service (“Rollings”). This represents Rollings entrance into the state of Montana as their 6th acquisition in 2021.
The Schnider and O’Connor funeral homes are well respected staples in the Great Falls community. They serve more than 700 families combined each year. The owners, Steve and Carla Schnider, built and opened Schnider Funeral Home in 2001. In 2010, they purchased O’Connor Funeral Services. It was important to the Schniders’ to find a partner who cares as much about the staff & community as they do.
Steve Schnider shared these comments about their recent sale, “My wife Carla and I are very grateful for being identified and contacted by the NewBridge Group as a high-quality, service focused funeral service business that gives back to the community. The NewBridge Group reached out and shared the fact that Greg Rollings, with Rollings Funeral Service, shares these same values, and cares about my employees. When I started this business in 2001, I did not have a specific exit plan. However, NewBridge was very helpful in explaining their valuation process and made a very comfortable, no obligation introduction to Rollings. I can now rest easy and be proud of my legacy with both Schnider and O’Connor Funeral Homes and their continued success moving forward.”
Rollings is a regional funeral home operator with more than 70 funeral homes throughout the Southeast, Northeast, and Midwest. The NewBridge Group, a full-service merger and acquisition consulting firm, assisted Rollings and Steve & Carla Schnider in the transaction.
