I called this place after my aunt passed on wed, planned funeral on Thursday and had it Friday. They did amazing. I don’t know how they pulled it off in such short notice but they did and for that I’m so grateful my aunt got the service she deserved. I dealt with David mostly but all the employees were helpful from the first phone call up until the end finishing up paperwork. If 10 stars was an option they would get it.

Absolutely amazing. They have handled 3 cremations and two funerals for my family since 2018, and did wonderful work each service. Not only do they handle everything in your time of need, they fully support you with open communication 24/7 throughout the entire process. David shows a level of respect to your loved one (and you as well) like they are his personal family or friends. I appreciate them more than they will ever realize. I will have them handle every service I need done until they eventually lay me to rest.

Jeff, Jimmy Rev. Harris & David, took the time to help my family plan my father's funeral every step of the way answering questions with a gentle kindness day or late evening. They made us feel like family coming to visit a relative instead of strangers planning a funeral and it made a difficult proccess that much easier. From the moment we walked in the door we were greeted with hospitality. We were placed at ease with Jeff's engaging personality and attention to details. I highly recommend Davis Funeral Home and appreciate the recommendation. I made one initial phone call and spoke to David and

David Bolyard and his team at Davis Funeral Home made a difficult and emotional situation--the death of my mother--bearable. They walked me, my sister, and my father through all the long distance preparations and took care of transporting my mother back to her hometown of Clarksburg. The facility was lovely and everything went well the day of the funeral. We could not have asked for better service and I highly recommend them to anyone who may need a funeral home. Thank you, David.
