George Edwards August 06, 2021

My family and I just went through the hardest two weeks of our lives. On March 17th, we received the tragic news that our son passed away. Skip Young was there for our family from Day 1. When we first found out, he was available to answer any and all questions (he was on scene of the accident). When I was unable to get a hold of law enforcement, Skip answered his phone (no matter the time) and just provided a calming and knowledgeable view point throughout the entire process. Family Funeral home (name fits perfectly because they treat you like family) is very professional and knows what they are doing. You do not feel pressured to spend a certain amount of money, they just want to make sure you are comfortable with your decisions. Everything and everyone is organized, calm, and professional. From the viewing to the burial, they will be there every step of the way and made it seamless. No question is off limits and I can’t thank this funeral home enough. They were a blessing to work with. Even though we live in a small town, Family Funeral home is not running a small town operation. Thank you, Skip Young and team! We are eternally grateful!
