We're not just here for you at the moment, we're here for you always. Harper-Talasek has enjoyed growth from it’s inception; always willing to be the first to step up and be counted when it came to the good of the families they served or the community in which we live, worship and raise our families. Harper-Talasek Funeral Home was founded in 1964 by Mr. Dan C. Harper and Mr. Reuben Talasek on the corner of N. 9th Street and Barton Ave. in the historical area of Temple. From the humble beginning to now over forty nine years of serving Temple Harper-Talasek has become one of the premier names in the funeral profession today. Many of the areas funeral professionals got their start in the funeral business having worked at Harper-Talasek and then gone on to own and operate their own businesses. With their roots planted in Temple, Mr. Harper and Mr. Talasek expanded their and in 1965 they purchased the Chanslor-Young Funeral Home, located at North Gray and Rancier Ave. This location had been used as a funeral home and residence for many years. During the early years the funeral home also ran an ambulance service serving the Killeen area from the same location. Shortly after the purchase, plans were made to move from the downtown and build a new modern funeral home. This came to fruition in 1972. Two acres of land were purchased on 38th street just north of Killeen High School. Construction commenced in 1972. The new building along with a two bedroom home was completed and occupied with a community wide open house in may 1973. Our management and staff are all local residents and many are retired military. We are members of community organizations, veterans groups and local churches, serving on their boards and committees. Harper-Talasek has enjoyed growth from it’s inception; always willing to be the first to step up and be counted when it came to the good of the families they served or the community in which we live, worship and raise our families.
