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! 🙏🏼
