Founder & Owner | Licensed Funeral Director in Charge | Minister | Notary
Guided by faith, compassion, and dedication to service, Ericksen L. McConnell established Omega Mortuary & Cremation Services, LLC with a clear mission: to provide families with dignity, comfort, and care during life’s most difficult moments.
A licensed Funeral Director and Embalmer, Ericksen brings both professional expertise and a heartfelt commitment to the families of Jacksonville and the surrounding communities. A Georgia native, Ericksen relocated to Jacksonville in 2014. His journey in funeral service and ministry began at the age of five, as he watched his godfather faithfully serve families at The Dorchester Funeral Home—an experience that sparked his lifelong calling to serve others with compassion and excellence.
Ericksen is a proud graduate of Orange Park High School and Commonwealth Institute of Funeral Service, where he earned his A.S. in Funeral Services.
Beyond his professional achievements, Ericksen serves faithfully as a minister at New Bethel AME Church (Jacksonville, FL) and at his home church, Thebes AME Church (Midway, GA). His ministry reflects the same compassion, integrity, and leadership that define his work in funeral service.
Under Ericksen’s leadership, Omega Mortuary stands as a beacon of faith, family, and service—embodying its motto: “A Compass During Your Time of Sorrow.” His work goes beyond providing funeral services; it is a true calling rooted in helping families find peace, comfort, and direction during moments of loss.
Omega Mortuary & Cremation Services is proudly the only Black-owned, independently operated funeral home rooted in the Arlington neighborhood, serving families throughout Jacksonville and the surrounding communities with dignity and care.
As the youngest funeral home owner in the Southeastern region, Ericksen represents a new generation of leadership—one built on professionalism, innovation, and heart. Rooted in Jacksonville but serving families across Duval, Clay, Nassau, Baker, and surrounding counties, he continues to expand Omega’s reach with excellence and compassion.
When not serving families, Ericksen is active in continuing education, community outreach, and professional development. He is deeply committed to building generational wealth, empowering others, and leaving a lasting legacy of service, compassion, and excellence for future generations.
