Edwards Funeral Service began when an unfulfilled need surfaced in our community, which was the need for families to have an affordable, honest and dignified choice in funeral providers. By keeping our facilities modest and our overhead to a minimum, we are able to provide the same level of service and personal attention to our families for several thousand dollars less than many other firms simply based on their business model.
We are as dedicated today as we were in our beginnings to providing the families we serve with exceptional service at an affordable price. We are proud to own and operate our own crematory. When you call Edwards Funeral Service to take care of your loved one they never leave our care. We are always here to help.

Services
A funeral represents a purposeful opportunity to reflect on the meaning of a life that has been lived and to determine the impact of that meaning for the family and friends. There is no single proper funeral service. It is a time for human sharing in its deepest sense. You and the ones you love are at the very center of the process, and the choices you make will determine its significance for you.
Many families today are choosing cremation as their disposition of choice. Although this option in the past used to be considered only a means of saving money, today people select cremation for different reasons. Families have shared with us that they prefer cremation because they feel it is simpler, cleaner, they like the idea of not being in a casket in the ground or a crypt, and there are many ways to still make services meaningful.
Edwards Funeral Service is here to treat your loved one with care and make this process as simple as possible for you. Use of Insurance Assignments is NOT accepted with this discount. This discount is only valid if paid in full at the time arrangements are first made, no billing of any third parties by the funeral home is accepted with this discount.
At Edwards Funeral Service, families are what matter. We not only strive to provide the best service before, during and after a need arises, but we also focus on another important aspect of the funeral arrangement which is the cost of your personal selections. Our Family Savings Program provides families peace of mind knowing they are selecting dignified care for their loved one at the most affordable pricing structure in the State of Ohio.
Funerals provide surviving family members and friends a caring, supportive environment in which to recognize the death of a loved one and to share thoughts and feelings about that person. Funerals are the first step in the healing process. It is possible to have a full funeral service even for those choosing cremation.

Jeff and the whole team at Edward’s funeral home were kind, caring, and respectful during a very difficult time for our family. I would without hesitation recommend their services to anyone in need. They are on the cutting edge of the industry and can provide options that no one else can.
My dad had very specific wishes to have his body aquamated via alkaline hydrolysis and Edward’s was the only place in Ohio that could facilitate this. My dad was a very unique individual and had his own patented method for ‘cremation’ that fell somewhere between body composting and alkaline hydrolysis

I lost my twin brother in death. He lived in Pike County. We contacted Edwards and spoke to Brittany. She quoted a price that she said included going to Chillicothe to get my brothers body and she said it included all paperwork. When my nephew went to pay her they upped the price $500. She said this was for picking up his body and paper work. We were shocked because I made sure when I spoke with her that everything was included in the first price of $900 and now they had his body and we weren’t going to get it back unless we paid them $500 more. To make matters worse they would not let me pick

The team at Edwards funeral service was professional and provided a very beautiful service for my Dad in March 2016. They are compassionate and caring. The services were priced very fairly and I had pre-planned and pre-paid (using a life insurance policy) for his service which made it less challenging for me when my Dad died. I recommend them to my friends and family. Jeff Edwards, Bridget, Barry and Andy were all helpful and kind.

During one of the most difficult, life changing moments in my life, my family and I stumbled upon Edwards funeral home. I cannot begin to tell you of the warmth, patience, understanding and aptitude of Edwards. Barry is one of the most thoughtful, precise, serene mannered men I have ever met in my life. Answering every question, dotting every I, he and Jeff moved mountains for us. I can't put into words the blessing your expediency was; Edwards met my families heartache with great aplomb, efficiency and the urgency it merited. When it came down to it, they got the job done right, on time. Dedicated
