Beers and Story - Palmer is a funeral home in the historic Depot Village neighborhood of Palmer, located at 1475 North Main Street. The funeral home operates from a building originally constructed in 1877 as a private residential home, one of the oldest continuously operating funeral home buildings in the region. Bert Beers established a funeral home on the property in the early 1900s; the current Beers and Story partnership was formalized in 1950. The facility includes a chapel that has received specific recognition in family reviews for its setting and atmosphere, and accommodates identification and private viewings.

Families in the greater Springfield area considering this location typically weigh proximity to Palmer and surrounding Hampden County communities, the availability of a chapel for services, and whether they require on-site cremation capabilities. The Palmer location does not operate an on-site crematory. Individual staff members are frequently named in reviews, which may be a relevant factor for families who value consistent personal contact throughout the arrangement process.
