Even though it has been more than 30 years since my father passed away and Whitehurst treated us so well, they are still helpful today when I tried to find out where to get another copy of my father's death certificate. I really appreciate that!

Whitehurst Powell was the best. I thought having to plan a funeral for the first time and having to do it from another state would be a true nightmare. Andy and his staff made it as simple as possible. My father passed in February and five weeks later my mother passed. Whitehurst Powell coordinated transportation with the funeral home in Georgia. We were able to handle everything over the phone and with one short meeting when we all arrived in Crestview. Daddy had a Military funeral and all the details were taken care of. No matter how we tried we just couldn’t throw Andy off his game. He hit

I highly recommend Whitehurst Powell funeral home to anyone needing help with the final preperations of the loss of a loved one. Andy and the entire staff treated my sister and I with the utmost respect and made us feel like family. They all were very helpful through every step of the process. They did everything in their power to ensure that every request we made was met. Andy was definitely a God send to my sister and I. He was even able to put a smile back on our faces a time or two during so much sadness. To me that speaks volumes.

Whitehurst did a wonderful job. I feel blessed beyond measure that we chose them to honor my mom. Ami kept in communication with me and made sure we knew what was happening step by step. They made a very hard time in life somewhat easier by being so professional and caring.

Our family has always used Whitehurst- Powell Funeral Home for funerals. They are so caring and considerate of the grieving family and so helpful and patient! We lost our Mother in January. Everyone was so helpful with honoring our Mom. They help with all the big and the little things ensuring nothing is forgotten. Andy Powell talked with my sister and I several times before Mom passed, while arranging the funeral and after to check on us. We told them this work is his calling because he is a Godsend to the hurting family!! Amy was so helpful with getting my Mom’s hair and make-up done and making

Whitehurst Powell was amazing helping with finishing up my parents' arrangements, both of which have died in less than 15 months from one another. Andy's helped my husband and I, as well as my sister, with our future arrangements. I highly recommend preplanning your funeral like my parents did, so their is less stress on the family you leave behind and I HIGHLY recommend Andy and all of his staff to help guide you thru this trying experience.

Andy and his team at Whitehurst Powell were absolutely amazing throughout such a tough time my family and I went through with loosing my mom to cancer. They were there 24/7 to answer any questions we had, they made this process easy and took care of everything but most importantly they really make you feel comfortable and truly care about your family and about the loved one you’ve lost. My mom was in the best hands from start to finish with Whitehurst Powell. The service couldn’t have gone any better and even in such a dark time with loosing my mom, I’m was so happy she was celebrated and
