Our Prices
R. Hayden Smith Family Funeral Homes are proudly family owned and locally operated. This allows us to keep our costs reasonable for the families we serve while continuing to provide quality services and products. It is our goal to help loved ones learn to live with what has happened, as they keep their memories alive.
A funeral represents a purposeful opportunity to reflect on the meaning of a life that has been lived. There is no single proper funeral service. You and the ones you love are at the very center of the process, and the choices you make will determine its significance for you. As you participate in the planning of the funeral service, you help create a meaningful experience for everyone.
The following are meant to provide basic information and prices for the types of services frequently requested by our families; they do not take the place of meeting with our funeral directors to plan a personalized service for your loved one.
Remember....we help you explore options, but the choice is always yours.
* All services and merchandise are priced to accommodate persons under 300 lbs. In certain circumstances additional charges or other merchandise may be necessary.
