We humbly ask for your nomination as the Best funeral home in the Daily Times Reader’s poll. Thank you. 🙏

We enjoyed our night at Mardi Gras benefitting the Blount County Community Action Agency. This organization is a true treasure in our backyard and we were thrilled to be able to come out and support them and fellowship with so many friends. We are blessed to live here.

We had the best time sponsoring the Chilhowee View Community Center Breakfast this morning. Over 100 people were served and we enjoyed fellowshipping with old friends and making new ones. This place is a treasure to our area and as a local family owned business, we were glad to help them towards their goal for a new pavilion. Until next time, friends! 🍽️🙏🏼

We were privileged to lay Mr. Donald “Donnie” Holbert to rest this morning in his ‘Allis Chalmers ‘ Casket- custom painted to match his beloved antique tractor. We were thrilled to help this dear family say goodbye in a manner reflecting his life and who he was.

By being a local, family owned funeral home, we don’t have to go up a corporate ladder and ask permission from a high level executive in another state or country like a corporate owned funeral home does.

We answer only to you; the families we serve and our community. And by being local, our costs to you are less.

If you’d like to have a conversation about a custom celebration or remembrance, we are here to help. We also offer Preplanning- so you can tell your family exactly what you want. Let’s talk! 🙏🏼

We thank you for your trust in us and stand ready to help when needed. 🙏🏼

Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our country with courage and sacrifice.

At Dotson Funeral Home & Cremation, we are proud to ‘go the extra mile’ for our Veterans to ensure they receive the honors and benefits they have earned. We coordinate these services at no additional cost to families.

Did you know- that we can direct funerals and graveside ceremonies anywhere in the State of TN?

So if you wish to be buried in your family plot many miles from Blount County, we can coordinate that- just like we were honored to do for the Arendt Family today in Piney Flats, TN.
