The building was built in 1936 and even though renovated, it still holds the ambiance of that era. Thomas (1946-2017) and Ann Mary Crafton founded Crafton Funeral home over 40 years ago to serve Franklin and the surrounding counties during times of loss and sorrow with personal and dedicated service.
Crafton Funeral Home offers the Life's Tribute DVD. This video is a collection of photographs chosen by the family that best depicts the life of their loved one - all put to background music and played throughout visitation.

Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.
Many who have undergone the emotional strain of arranging a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from their loved ones by relieving decision-making pressure at a time of grief and emotional stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice.
Someone you love has died. You are now faced with the difficult, but important, need to mourn. Mourning is the open expression of your thoughts and feelings regarding the death and the person who died. It is an essential part of healing. The following articles provide many practical suggestions to help you move toward healing in your unique grief journey.
Most of us are not prepared to plan and carry out a funeral ceremony for someone we love. And so much of the information available on this critically important subject fails to focus on what is most important: having a personalized, meaningful funeral that helps families and friends begin the healing process of mourning after the death of someone we love.

I would like to thank Patrick Crafton and the crew that comforted us when they came to get mom. Thank You all so much at Crafton Funeral Home, for all the kindness and caring and Ann Mary for the beautiful hair dressing that you did for Mom, it looked just like the way she used to wear it. You all did a great funeral with mom.
