Our Sayler Park funeral home was started in 1945 by Glenn Seifert. He sold the business to Mr. Hardig and in 1998 sold the business to John C. Brater. John renamed the funeral home to Seifert-Hardig & Brater.

John and his wife Kathie operated both businesses until their retirement in 2011, when they sold to Jolene Winter. Jolene renamed both funeral homes to Brater-Winter Funeral Home. Jolene and her family live in the Harrison community and are members at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church. Jolene is active in Kiwanis, Rotary, Bright Lions and Greater Harrison Chamber of Commerce.
