For over 70 years, this building was a funeral home. Generations of local families gathered to remember, grieve, and celebrate the lives of loved ones at Marsh Funeral Home, later Marsh-Chamberlain Funeral Home. Today, it has a very different rhythm! As the home of Kava Haus, it’s a welcoming local coffee shop where friends and neighbors gather over coffee and conversation.

During Ohio Open Doors, you will have a rare opportunity to step beyond the areas open to Kava Haus guests and explore parts of the building that still reflect the Marsh and Marsh-Chamberlain Funeral Home past, spaces that served local families during some of life’s most meaningful moments.

Discover for yourself how a building that once provided a place for farewell has found a new life as a place for community, and share your own stories and memories.
