OUR HERITAGE

In 1940, Lloyd Solie announced that a mortuary would be built at 3301 Colby Avenue in Everett, Washington.  Lloyd and his father, H.J Solie, an immigrant pioneer of Everett, worked with architects Alvin Erickson and Howard Tollefson to draw plans and direct the construction.  Solie Funeral Home opened its doors to serve families early that same year.

Lloyd was well known for his good heart, kind ways, and his genuine tenderness to grieving families and the tradition continues with the second generation. Considered an Everett pioneer, he is well known for bringing his Norwegian heritage into the community.

In 1974, Lloyd became business partners with Paul Lorentzen and his wife Laura. Lloyd Solie passed away October 16, 1996.  Solie Funeral Home continues to be the only family owned and operated business in Everett providing hometown, traditional, and contemporary funeral services. 

Solie Funeral Home has been committed to serving the community's needs for funeral and memorial services for 70 years. If your family prefers a formal service with quiet atmosphere, you will find it with us.  If a more casual service in an intimate setting setting is preferred, you will find that too.  Our goal is to create a personalized, meaningful memorable service that provides comfort for family and friends.

Today, the staff and owners continue the tradition of professionalism and excellence that has been handed down from generations of commitment to family.

Our on-site crematory was built in June of 2000 and was designed to meet the needs and the comfort for the traditional witness cremations. We are the only independent funeral home in Snohomish County that owns and operates an on-premise crematory.  The families we serve take special comfort in knowing their loved one never eaves our care.
