Newcomer Funeral Service Group

We are pleased to announce that Goes Funeral Care & Crematory in Fort Collins, Colorado has joined Newcomer Funeral Service Group. Founded by Chris and Stephanie Goes in 1996, Goes serves Fort Collins and Northern Colorado area families with compassionate, professional care. “We created Goes Funeral Care because we felt there was a need in our community to offer funeral service in a different way,” said Stephanie Goes. Chris Goes shared that the couple’s dream “was to bring back the old-fashioned principles of funeral care where the funeral director is a trusted friend, and families can say goodbye in a way that reflects their loved one’s life and values. Over the past 30 years, we’ve been blessed to serve this community and build something even better than we imagined. Now, it’s time to pass the torch to a company we trust to carry on our mission.” As Goes Funeral Care transitions to Newcomer, the Goes family is confident they’ve found the right partner to carry their legacy forward. “Newcomer shares our values and our commitment to affordable, compassionate care,” said Chris. “They’ve been a respected name in funeral service for decades, and we’re excited to see them bring their expertise to Fort Collins while honoring the traditions we’ve built. This transition ensures that our legacy will continue with the support of another family-owned organization.” Goes joins Newcomer’s group of funeral homes, crematories and cemeteries serving the Front Range of Colorado and Wyoming from locations in Denver, Fort Collins, Cheyenne, and Casper. John Newcomer shared, "the Goes family and their team are held in high esteem by Fort Collins families for their integrity and compassionate guidance, and we are honored to welcome them to Newcomer." The funeral home will continue to operate under the same name, with the same great team, and the full support of the Newcomer organization.
