In 1888 James Randolph Weer opened the Weer Funeral Home on Spout Hill Road in Sykesville. His son C. Harry Weer joined the company about the turn of the century.

The business was moved to the main Street residence of Harry and his wife Beulah soon after their marriage in 1910. When James retired in 1932, Luther Haight started work at the funeral home, married Kathryn Haslup in 1933, and graduated from Eckles Embalming School of Philadelphia in 1937.

A Weer-Haight partnership was formed in 1951 and the Funeral Home was moved to its present location on Route 32 Near Eldersburg in 1958. Harry Weer Haight joined his father as an apprentice in 1960, while still in college.

Harry married Susan Doyle in 1963 and in 1966 he became a partner with his father, Luther. He currently serves as president of Haight Funeral Home & Chapel. Harry and Susan's son Brian Luther Haight started his apprenticeship in 1984, was licensed in 1987 and is currently a partner and vice-president of Haight Funeral Home & Chapel. After 113 years, this funeral home founded by a father and son continues in that same tradition.

Our funeral home has been serving Carroll, Howard, and Baltimore counties since 1888.

We are dedicated to providing professional, caring services to all families in times of bereavement. Now run by Harry & son, Brian, the funeral home is in its fifth generation.

Harry & his wife Susan, who also works in the business, also have two daughters: Paige Haight Herbert, formerly a Registered Nurse who obtained her funeral director's license in 1997, and is now a full-time director and Jacqueline Haight Guenther, who also works at the funeral home.

All of our family directors are members of the National Funeral Director's Association, the Maryland State Funeral Director's Association, and the Tri-County Funeral Director's Association, as well as being active in various church and community organizations.

Our funeral home has been recognized for excellence in the funeral industry, having been selected to the Order of the Golden Rule, an organization dedicated to preserving quality family-run funeral homes.
