Services
When Ricky Barrett graduated from Gupton Jones College of Funeral Service, he came home to the people he loved of White County. It had been his desire to open a funeral home in the Cleveland area. With the help of his father, Clarence E. Barrett Sr., his dream became true and in May of 1976, Barrett Funeral Home in Cleveland was opened.
We understand that making the many decisions which come at a time of loss can be difficult. We offer our support by providing you with two options as you consider making immediate arrangements. Please call us at (706) 865-3101 to make arrangements in person with a caring professional. With online Arrangements, you can take your time to select the arrangements which are best for your preferences and budget.
Staff members of Barrett Funeral Home 'White County's Only Locally Owned Funeral Home' 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 of licensed funeral directors.
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.

Brian Alexander and his team (especially Whitney) are the kindest, most considerate people that I have ever met. 2021 has been the worst year of my life after losing my dad and my son.. Barrett made this sooo much easier to go through. I will continue to use them forever. There is nowhere else that you should go.

I came up from St.Augustine,fl Saturday to say good bye to my best friend and brother in arms Ralph Medlock.. I noticed the announcement booklet Barrett's handed out had a very obvious flaw in Ralph's picture.I find this absolutely appalling under the circumstances,and just had the overall feeling this was just another job to get finished.The building itself looked unkempt and just drab, and the final insult was when I asked to have a DVD of the pictures, it took them about 5 minutes to burn one on their computer. They put the same flawed picture on a cheap little DVD box and asked for 20.00 dollars

I've personally known Ricky Barrett for many years. Our family has used Barrett Funeral Homes Sevices on several occasions. Excellent staff, clean facility, staff has always been greatful and kind. You could not ask for better service. We are blessed to have a business and family of this nature in our home town.

Barrett Funeral Home was wonderful to my family in our time of need. We have used Ricky Barrett when our mother died six years ago and more recently when my brother Ralph died. We have known Ricky Barrett for many years and my father and my brother ate supper with him regularly. The staff was delightful, the facilities were clean, and the staff was very caring with my elderly father while burying his only son and my baby brother. Thank you Mr. Barrett and your staff for a job well done.

We had to call on Barrett's funeral home last week to take care of our mothers last request and we have so much graditude to all involved. They made us feel like family and we would recommend anyone needing these kind of services to call on Barrett's in Cleveland GA. We gladly give them a 10 in review of all their kindness. God bless them all.
