Services
A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, and favor is better than silver or gold. The story of Fitchett Funeral Home started over 80 years ago in the early 1930's when Charlie Samuel Fitchett decided to take a chance on his interest in the funeral industry. Because of the lack of African American owned funeral homes in the area at the time, he envisioned owning and operating his own funeral home.
Staff members of Fitchett Funeral Home, Inc are caring and experienced professionals who understand that each family is unique and has personal requests and traditions. These requests and traditions are of utmost importance to our staff. We continue to serve the community with dignity and pride, as this is the Fitchett Family tradition.
Fitchett Funeral & Cremation Services is centrally located so as to serve all of Hampton Roads. We are on the corner of Liberty Street and Atlantic Avenue in South Norfolk. We are 5 minutes from the downtown tunnel, 20 minutes from Va Beach and we serve Chesapeake, Norfolk, Franklin areas, Petersburg, Moyock NC., Elizabeth City, Suffolk, Newport News, Hampton, Yorktown and surrounding Hampton Roads and Southhampton County areas.
When it comes to your final arrangements, shouldn't you make the decisions? The arrangements you make will reflect your exact wishes and desires. Pre-arranging your own service will help to ease the burden of your loved ones. It will also alleviate any questions, problems or differences, which can occur among family members.
The basic Military Funeral Honors (MFH) ceremony consists of the folding and presentation of the United States flag to the veterans' family and the playing of Taps. The ceremony is performed by a funeral honors detail consisting of at least two members of the Armed Forces. The Funeral Honors rendered to you or your veteran will be determined by the status of the veteran.

I just love the spirit of love and service that you receive from the very first moment. Not just a business. For them is a ministry. And you genuinely feel they care because they do. That's important.
