Here’s the truth: selecting a final resting place in advance makes a difficult time become solely about celebrating life and honoring who you are. The alternative is often confusion, disagreement and guesswork. So, it’s smart to make these choices now. That way they’re not made on your behalf, at an emotional moment.
The benefits to your family will be real and appreciated, ranging from spiritual choices to financial assistance. From selecting an ideal permanent memorial, to designing the service, to paying in advance, you can make the day exactly as you imagine it. And your loved ones will know they’re fulfilling your wishes. Which is exactly how they should feel.

What do funeral directors do?
Essentially, a funeral director is trained to anticipate your needs and guide you as you decide on the details of your service. They will notify proper authorities of your loved one's passing and assist the family with funeral arrangements and purchase of casket, urn, burial vault and cemetery plot. They arrange and prepare death certificates as well as provide certified copies of death certificates for insurance and benefit processing.

Our Story

Bateman Funeral Home was founded in 1914 by the Bateman family who owned and operated it until brothers Gene and Dene Bateman semi-retired in 1999. In 2010, two Oregon native Funeral Directors, both having homes on the Oregon coast and long time friends of the Bateman family, purchased the businesses from the out of state operators. Bateman is now a private company owned by local Oregon families. Their staff resides in both the Newport and Lincoln City areas, and are available to assist 24 hours a day.

Co-owner and managing partner of Bateman Funeral Home, Brian Norris is a licensed funeral director and celebrant who resides in Newport with his family. Brian is involved in the community as a member Yaquina Toastmasters Club, a member of the American Legion and the Lincoln County Historical Society. He is involved with the City of Newport Parks and Recreation Committee, is on the Greater Newport Chamber of Commerce board of directors, and is a member of the board of directors for the Oregon Funeral Directors Association. Brian's business partner, David Schroeder is also a licensed funeral director and a long-time Oregon Coast native, born and raised in Tillamook County.

Bateman Funeral Home is family owned and operated. Located in Newport, Oregon Bateman has a chapel and reception areas, and operate the only two certified "on-site" cremation centers in Lincoln County. While other funeral homes are required to transport to a third party crematory operator and have little control over when the cremation takes place or when the ashes are returned to you, Bateman Funeral Home can assure no out of town transport costs and your loved one does not leave their care. With certified crematory operators, Bateman assures the highest possible standards right here in the Lincoln County community.
