In 1910 two Denton residents W. W. Russell and B. I. Harrison founded Piedmont Furniture Company selling furniture and "Undertaking Supplies". They changed the Name around 1917 to Rex Furniture and Undertaking because a company in Lexington, the county seat, was using the name Piedmont. In 1919 the company was sold to Carl A. Hoover.

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.

If you are having your love one cremated please ba aware that you will not be picking up your loved ones ashes from the funeral home! YOU WILL BE PICKING THEM UP AT AN APPLIANCE STORE. We were HORRIFIED and had no idea this was the way Briggs handled the ashes of loved ones. Had we of known that this was the case we would have used another service.… Up until this point we had been totally satisfied with the care, compassion, and service, we had received. This was cold, unprofessional, and this task is passed of to individuals who are trained to sell you a stove, not the funeral directors
