Most of us plan for important life events, like weddings, our children’s education and retirement. Few of us prepare for the inevitable. When you plan final arrangements, you not only ensure a memorial exactly as you envision it, you also ease the emotional and financial burdens of those closest to you. These short seminars address the importance of making your final arrangements and give you all the information you need to take the next steps. Plus, enjoy a meal on us!

Our Story

Born in Richmond, Virginia, shortly after the conclusion of the Civil War, Henry W. Woody lived all his life in the city and established the Woody Funeral Home near Historic St. John’s Church in 1905. Due largely to his reputation of professionalism and integrity, the business outgrew the original facility and a new, more modern building was built at 25th Street and Jefferson Avenue in 1916.

By 1926, the funeral home had doubled in size and saw the addition of a modern, church-like sanctuary. Mr. Woody continued to serve families of the greater Richmond area from this location until his death in 1958.

Growing Business, Continuing Commitment

Woody Funeral Home was moved to Laburnum Avenue in 1966 and opened as Richmond’s first garden-type funeral home. Since 1966, 3 additional locations have opened, including Woody Funeral Home - Atlee Chapel. The funeral home joined the Dignity Memorial network in the early 1990s.
