Just some of our latest Yelp reviews

Yelp reviews:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Bubba T. – Baxley, GA
“Came to bury my Uncle Ray, left with a full heart and a fuller plate. The pastor was speakin’ and I was crunchin’ cucumbers—powerful stuff. Ranch was a little runny but so were my tears. Would grieve again.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Crystal M. – Hinesville, GA
“I thought this place was a joke until I was mid-eulogy with a deviled egg in my hand. Somehow it worked. Knocked off one star ’cause the sneeze guard fogged up when folks started cryin’.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Dale F. – Waycross, GA
“They handled Mama with dignity and my salad with tongs. That’s all a man can ask for. Bacon bits were plentiful, which Mama would’ve appreciated.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️
Tammy L. – Statesboro, GA
“Service was beautiful but someone mixed up the memorial flowers with the salad garnish. Pretty sure I ate a chrysanthemum. Still… nice crunch.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ricky J. – Jesup, GA
“Preacher said ‘ashes to ashes’ right as I dropped croutons on my tie. Felt symbolic. Potato salad tasted homemade, which I respect deeply.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Brenda S. – Tifton, GA
“My husband said it was ‘inappropriate’ but he also went back for thirds so who’s the hypocrite now. Only complaint: the olives ran out before the graveside service.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️
Keith W. – Pooler, GA
“Good concept, poor ex*****on. I don’t want to hear Amazing Grace while a teenager refills the cherry tomatoes. Boundaries matter.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Loretta P. – Vidalia, GA
“Y’all ever been sad and hungry at the same time? These folks get it. I cried into my macaroni salad and nobody judged me. That’s Southern hospitality.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Shawn D. – Savannah, GA
“Funeral was tasteful. Salad bar was aggressively cold. Not sure if that’s intentional or spiritual.”

⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Earl ‘Big E’ H. – Metter, GA
“I ain’t never had closure and coleslaw in the same building before. 10/10. Told my wife this is where I want my send-off. She said ‘over my dead body,’ which felt ironic.”

“Please put up bigger signs explaining this is NOT a buffet for unrelated customers. Awkwardest lunch of my life.”

We have been fielding a lot of questions lately so we wanted to post some of our Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is this a funeral home or a salad bar?
A: Yes.

⸻

Q: Why would anyone combine a funeral home and a salad bar?
A: Grief makes folks hungry, and we hate waste. Also… zoning laws was unclear.

⸻

Q: Is the salad bar fresh?
A: Depends on your definition of “fresh.” But we’ll tell you this—if it’s past its prime, it’s on the memorial table, not the salad bar.

⸻

Q: Are the funeral services and salad bar in the same room?
A: Mostly. There’s a tasteful rope divider. Please respect it. And don’t cross it with ranch on your spoon.

⸻

Q: Can I eat during the service?
A: We prefer you wait till the final prayer, but if Maw-Maw gets lightheaded, grab her a deviled egg. The Lord understands.

⸻

Q: Are the croutons homemade?
A: Yes ma’am. Fletcher’s cousin Randy bakes ’em out back. Sometimes too dark. Sometimes perfect. It’s a journey.

⸻

Q: Is the salad bar included with the funeral package?
A: Depends. The “Basic Goodbye” gets iceberg and Italian dressing. The “Heavenly Send-Off” includes bacon bits, shredded cheese, and a second trip through.

⸻

Q: Can we bring our own dressing?
A: You can, but if it’s that neon orange French stuff, we’re gonna judge you silently.

⸻

Q: Are the bodies ever near the salad bar?
A: Sir.
Ma’am.
No.
(But we appreciate your concern.)

⸻

Q: What happens if I cry into my salad?
A: That’s called grief vinaigrette. Totally normal. Napkins are by the pickled beets.

⸻

Q: Do y’all cater weddings too?
A: We’ll do weddings, reunions, divorce parties, and gender reveals—but if anything explodes, that’s on you.

⸻

Q: Is it disrespectful to go back for seconds?
A: Not at all. If the deceased was a good eater, they’d want you to.

⸻

Q: Can I take salad home in a to-go box?
A: Yes, but please don’t use the same box as Aunt Linda.

⸻

Q: What’s your slogan again?
A: “Where memories are honored… and lettuce don’t go to waste.”

This weekend here at Smith and Fletcher we had the pleasure of sending the beloved Mrs. Doris Schumaker home to the Lord. Her grandson Aldophus Schumaker aka DJ Aldo performed a loving caring song for his grandmother. If you are interested in having DJ Aldo perform at you or your loved ones funeral just give us a holler. He is fully open for the rest of the year. And always remember "Life must come to an end but our salad bar is endless"

We at Smith and Fletcher funeral home would like to apologize to the Williams family for the incident at last weekends funeral for Mrs. Gertrude Janice Williams. We had no idea that the raisins in the carrot salad had fermented and become alcoholic in nature.Nor could we predict that the cousin of the deceased Eddie "Rabbit" Williams would grab the flowers off of the casket and throw them wildly into the crowd and yell at whoever caught them that they were next like it was a bouquet at a wedding.we have discontinued all serving of raisin and raisin like items on our salad bar and offered a 2% percent refund to the family. We hope this doesn't deter future guest from visiting our location. Remember life must come to an end but our salad bar is endless.

We at Smith and Fletcher funeral home would like to dispel some rumors. We are not affiliated in any way to Mable Peabody's Beauty Parlor and Chainsaw Repair Night Club. We cannot however say that they haven't "borrowed" some ideas from "somewhere".
