In October of 1958, Henry Demby, Sr. along with his only son, Henry Demby, Jr. started the business Demby & Son Funeral Home. Henry Demby, Sr. worked for a funeral home in Plaquemine, LA for many years and when he felt he knew the business well enough, he decided to start his own. Together they developed a huge following of patrons who felt the genuine warmth and compassion the Demby's showed them in their season of mourning. In Aug of 1989, Henry, Sr. died leaving his son to continue his legacy.

Shortly after in April of 1990 Henry, Jr. passed as well. The legacy of Demby and Son Funeral Home will live on for many years to come, constantly building relationships with the families in which they serve and providing dignified service to the community.

Today, Demby and Son Funeral Home is under the direction and management of LaBelle Demby, the wife of the late Henry Demby, Jr. LaBelle Demby began considering taking the head position at the funeral home after the passing of her husband in 1989. At the age of 65, Mrs. LaBelle enrolled at Delgado Community College in New Orleans, Louisiana. After completing the required courses and passing the State Boards, she is enjoying her life as owner and director of Demby & Son Funeral Home.
