Shown here is the best black and white image of our first motorized hearse used in western Snyder County during the early 1940s. It was the first motorized hearse used in Beavertown and McClure during the day. The original funeral home was built in 1936, then burned down in 1939, was rebuilt toward the end of 1939 and put back in service.

Commemorative Davy Jones Memorial
Second Edition Candy Bar Wrapper
Karen's Sweet Celebrations has been named the official creator and distributor of a Davy Jones Memorial Commemorative Second Edition Candy Wrapper. The Davy Jones Memorial bars are still available but they will be a second edition of the bar with the picture of his home removed at the family's request and a photo of the Davy Jones Memorial Banner that was at the service on March 10 will replace it. The back of the bar also has a photo of flowers and other items placed at the church that day and facts about his life. These bars will have second edition printed on the back and will be numbered starting with the number 1. The memorial service was held in Beavertown, PA on March 10, 2012. The church which he wanted to make into a Davy Jones "Monkees" museum is on the front and also has the memorial service information on it. He was a member of "The Monkees" Band from 1966 to 1971. Each HERSHEY'S® milk chocolate bar is wrapped in foil, a numbered commemorative wrapper and put in a protective sleeve.
The bars can be purchased by emailing Karen Burns at this address: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Please put DAVY JONES in the subject line. The bars are numbered and can only be purchased through Karen's Sweet Celebrations . A portion of the proceeds will be given to the Beavertown Historical Society.
Please email your name, address, phone number and how many Davy Jones candy bars you want. Because of shipping chocolate in warm weather I'm also offering to use a keepsake (fake) bar in place of the chocolate bar. The price will be the same as the chocolate bar. When ordering please tell me which bar you want to order.
