HISTORIA DE LA FUNERARIA MÓRTOLA Ciudad de Cababaran, Agusan del Norte

 

 

It was founded in 1971 by a Spanish - Filipino Gentleman, Cesar Mortola y Dagani, and his spouse Asuncion Cabonce Maraunay at Asis Corner Rara Streets in Cabadbaran, Agusan del Norte, the first funeral parlor in the locality that it has become one of the City's major reference points. The word "funeraria" to motorela (tricycles) drivers means La Funeraria Mortola (LFM) as passenger destination.  Presently, businesses along the area would cite LFM as the reference point of their establishments' location. 

Another funeral parlor followed later whose present owners under a new business name are now in partnership with LFM to share resources and limited operations as of May 2024.

 

Another mortuary service branch opened in Cabadbaran at the turn of the Century but closed down recently.
