Landmark Funeral Group is honored to share that Mark Noll, founder of Noll Funeral Home and one of our valued Legacy Partners, has been named Beaver County's Entrepreneur of the Year by Beaver County Chamber of Commerce. 


A Legacy of Service 


Mark began his career in funeral service in 1986, and in 1998 he founded and opened his own firm, Noll Funeral Home, followed by Noll-Schwerha in 2000. For nearly three decades, he has served as owner, president, and funeral director, guiding business operations, supporting his team, and, most importantly, caring for the families entrusted to him. Mark's commitment to Beaver County extends well beyond the funeral home. He serves as President of the Fort McIntosh Foundation and as a Board Member of PUSH, and he co-founded two Beaver restaurants, Grumpy Beaver and Hash N Smash. 


Recognized for Excellence 


The Entrepreneur of the Year award recognizes an outstanding local business leader or founder who demonstrates exceptional innovation, leadership, and community impact within Beaver County. It honors individuals who drive economic growth, show a strong commitment to the region, and make their community a better place to live, work, and do business. 


"Funeral service taught me that success is really about people: showing up, listening, and taking care of one another. That lesson has guided everything I've done since, in business and in the community. I'm honored by this recognition and grateful to have spent my career serving my community alongside wonderful colleagues. This honor belongs to those who've worked beside me and to the families and neighbors who've trusted us."
— Mark Noll, Legacy Partner, Noll Funeral Home 


A Partnership Built on Shared Values 


Since joining the Landmark network of Firms, Noll Funeral Home has continued to serve Beaver County families with the same personal care and community commitment that has defined it for generations. This award is a reflection of the ongoing dedication that Mark has instilled in the business and continues to pour into the community today. 


"Mark embodies everything we hope to honor and support at Landmark: a founder who built something lasting by putting families and community first. We're proud to call him a Legacy Partner, and we're thrilled to see Beaver County recognize what his team and the families they serve and care for have known for years."
— Seb D'Appolonia, CEO, Landmark Funeral Group


Congratulations to Mark and the entire Noll Funeral Home team on this well-deserved honor.
