The ICCFA was founded in 1887 as the Association of American Cemetery Superintendents by 18 cemetery managers who wanted to improve their properties' look and operation. Over time, it grew to include a broader range of members. It changed its focus, becoming a national organization for cemeteries. In 1996, it changed its name to include funeral services and expanded internationally. In 2007, it added "Cremation" to its name to reflect the increasing importance of cremation in the industry. The ICCFA continues to help its members keep up with the industry and adapt to new trends.
