"The night before my grandmother's funeral, my father said, "Let's go down and visit Mama Hoyle." We went to the funeral home, sat beside her casket, and spent a couple of hours telling Mama Hoyle stories. I shall never forget that night. We broke through barriers families build to keep from sharing grief with each other. We started a tradition that night that continues to this day. Anytime my family gets together, we tell those same stories. I not only know what stories will be told, I know the order in which they will be told. Because of this story telling, Mama Hoyle is still alive among us. No one is dead until they are forgotten. She is not dead."
- Doug Manning

 The primary reason for a funeral home website is obituary access and online guest books. We have tried to place the obituaries in one easy to click area so you can access what you need for an obituary. Any guest book entries are reviewed for proper content before posting - so some time can occur between your message and the posting on the site.
The directions page seems helpful to some - especially folks who were so used to the old funeral home location for so many years.
An often clicked page is the Our Story page which really functions as a Staff page area highlighting the gentlemen who are on call and work services.
The Facilities page has some neat photos taken to show different parts of the building and hopefully take a little of the mystery out of our business.
The Preneed page has attempted to explain a difficult topic.
The Questions and Answers page has attempted to candidly discuss things folks bring up from time to time.
There are some other helpful things and even the Accuweather portion is an often clicked area... thanks for visiting...


Obituary Information:
As the local newspaper continues to take diminshed role in the community and obituaries are appearing in a more brief form, we present the information on local radio station obituaries to assist you with finding out the latest information. Any funeral home's website is also the quickest route to updated obituary information.
