Our Caring Staff
As a locally owned funeral home, our team at Haverstock grew up right here in La Porte, giving us a deep, personal connection to the families we serve.
Committed to assisting you in commemorating your cherished one, we possess extensive experience in serving families from all backgrounds. We are accessible around the clock, reachable through email or phone, ensuring continuous support whenever you need it. With patience, compassion, and unwavering professionalism, our team remains dedicated and readily available to attend to your needs.

David J. Holm
Owner
David is a LaPorte native (LPHS Class of '07!) who became an owner of Haverstock in 2025. A Ball State University graduate with a background in Communication Studies, David brings both a business mind and a big heart to everything we do. His main focuses are business operations and Haverstock's preneed program.
His approach to funeral service is simple: ask the right questions, listen carefully, and create a service that truly reflects a life well lived. "We work very hard to make sure each service is a clear display of a life well lived," David says — and our families feel the difference.
What matters most to David? Kindness. Every single day.
"If someone is interacting with our funeral home, they are likely in one of the most trying times of their life. We have to do all that we can to make that time easier."
When he's not here, David is out exploring LaPorte with his wife, kids, and dogs — or grabbing dinner at Bistro on the Greens or Drift on Pine. He's a golfer, a skier, a concert-goer, and a proud member of this community.
