Testimonials

Dixie Brooks
had this to say:
We have used Powell Funeral Home on several occasions for family members and have always been impressed with the knowledge and caring, considerate and respectful attitudes of all their employees and personnel.
They are always there during the process of making decisions and filling out legal paperwork, etc, even dealing with Insurance Companies.
Powell Funeral Home is very reasonably priced and attentive to every detail and try to accommodate all your wishes and requests down to the last detail of the service and beyond.
They will continue to be our choice and we are making arrangements to preplan our own future services to take that burden off of the ones we leave behind. Our deepest gratitude toward each employee for their themselves….

I was extremely pleased with Powell's Funeral home. In making the arrangements for my husband's funeral, they were very informative, caring and patient. I plan to go back in a few weeks to pre plan my own arrangements.

had this to say:
My spouse died during the night at a facility more than two hours away. PFH retrieved the remains, completed the cremation and processed all the necessary paperwork within four days. Although they worked at lightening speed their compassion and empathy were never compromised. They made a painful situation pleasantly tolerable.
