The Minshall-Shropshire-Bleyler Funeral Home was originally founded as the Minshall Funeral Home in 1837, in the area of Boothwyn, PA. The funeral home was later moved to Chester, PA and finally to its present location at Middletown (Route 352) and Knowlton Roads in Middletown Twp., Media, PA.

Upon Melvin I. Minshall’s retirement in 1982, Norman and Gerry Shropshire purchased the funeral home. Both Norman and Gerry are lifetime residents of Delaware County.

The funeral home is staffed by trained professionals who will guide and carry out each family’s wishes in planning a meaningful service.

Traditional, as well as cremation funeral services, along with pre-arrangements are available. The Minshall-Shropshire-Bleyler Funeral Home continues to be privately owned and is the oldest established funeral home in Delaware County.
