Our staff is courteous and understanding. Our facilities are comfortable and immaculate. Our services are handled with dignity and respect. If you are not completely satisfied with any of our services or facility offerings, we will reduce or eliminate the charge. We are the only funeral home in the area to offer this guarantee.
Funeral and Cremation costs can be very confusing. Often times other funeral & cremation providers will quote what seems like a low price, but actually they do not give you the complete costs and there will be hidden add on charges after you have chosen to utilize their services. We have made it easier ...
I love you my dear sweet friend. I miss you and I long for the day when I will see you again. Squeeze her tight for me Jesus.

Praying for friends and family as you work through your loss. Our loss, heaven’s gain.
I am so sad to hear this news of Traci passing! I’m glad that she is at peace and free of pain now in heaven.
I’m thankful I got the opportunity to meet Traci & Kim at the KCC women’s retreat. Kim, I will pray for you & your husband and Traci’s friends and family.
I knew you for too short a time, Traci. But I fell in love with your free spirit, your sense of humor, and your stories. Miss you already, sweet friend.
Sending warm hugs to the family and to my dear friends, Kim and Brian Rhodes who were healing balm to Traci. She loved being part of your family.
Forever in my heart dear friend. I will forever miss our deep chats and the sweet friendship we shared. Fly like an Eagle, till we meet again on heavens shores…
