June 2, 2002 marked the 100th anniversary of Backstrom-Pyeatte Funeral Home's first recorded funeral in Siloam Springs. In the late 1800's funerals were still taken care of by the family and embalming practices didn't become prevalent in the area until the turn of the century.

He ran this operation until 1924 when brothers Ralph and Bert Pyeatte bought the business, named it Pyeatte Funeral Home, moving it to the corner of Mt. Olive and Jefferson Streets, where the Dogwood Medical Center is now located. Read more
