About Johnson Hughes Funeral Home
Johnson Hughes Funeral Home
Johnson Hughes in Herrin has served Herrin families since 1933 when Paul Johnson and Joe Gualdoni established the facility at 200 North Street in Herrin.
In 1935 the home was moved to its current location at 201 South 13th, just one block from Park Avenue and adjacent to the Herrin Hospital.
In 1938 Johnson became partners with John Moroni and the home became the Moroni-Johnson Funeral Home until Moroni’s death in 1949. The Johnson Funeral Home under the direction of Paul Johnson became an important part of the city of Herrin. In 1983 after the death of Mr. Johnson, Larry G. Hughes purchased the firm.
