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.
Someone you love has died. You are now faced with the difficult, but important, need to mourn. Mourning is the open expression of your thoughts and feelings regarding the death and the person who died. It is an essential part of healing. The following articles provide many practical suggestions to help you move toward healing in your unique grief journey.
Most of us are not prepared to plan and carry out a funeral ceremony for someone we love. And so much of the information available on this critically important subject fails to focus on what is most important: having a personalized, meaningful funeral that helps families and friends begin the healing process of mourning after the death of someone we love.
A formal or informal ceremony or ritual prior to burial, a funeral service often provides a sense of closure to family and friends. Although your faith or culture may dictate some elements of a funeral service, you may want to personalize other elements of the service. At a funeral service, a casket or urn is present, though you may choose to have the casket open or closed.

Our experience was awesome. Miss Coleman and Barbara Carr was the most amazing Ladies. That was the hardest time of our life loseing our mom and those two ladies was there every step of the way. And we really appreciate that because they went the extra mile to make sure that we had everything that we needed. Y'all just don't know how much that meant to us. We just want to say Thank you 😊

My mom and I wanted to prepare for her funeral arrangements, so we met with the folks at Alexander Funeral home. Everyone was so helpful and kind, we made all the arrangements and on the day my mom passed away the funeral home sent someone to get her body. He was very pleasant and gave us time to say our last goodbye. The professionalism of all the staff was beyond attentive. I was very pleased with everything. I will definitely recommend this funeral home to all my family and friends.
Thank you for a job well done!
Sincerely,
Carmen Scott

My husband passed away from COVID on February 28th. As he had a pre-need, it was established that he wanted Alexander to handle the arrangements, not only because of their legacy of service, but they understood that he wanted the Masonic Rites preformed at his visitation.
They handled all of my requests, including moving heaven and earth to schedule an early internment at Salisbury National Cemetery, as burial scheduling is usually two weeks or more due to COVID. I cannot begin to thank them for a service well done.
I can recommend them when you need a steady hand during your time of berevement

This has been the worst experience ever, working with Alexander Funeral Home. My brother passed away more than 2 months ago and, due to incompetence and slowness at their office, it took me 7 weeks to get his death certificate. And when I got it, they had submitted incorrect information! I dealt with two funeral homes thru this process, Alexander was responsible for the minimal - embalming, transport to another state for burial, and death certificate. I came to them within 2 days of his passing and paid them in full on that same day. First, (this part may be sensitive to those who have recently

I've been slack on my reviews for a while and this place is a big part of the reason why. Not in a bad way, mind you.
We unexpectedly lost my mother a couple months ago and I found myself in need of a funeral home. It was basically written in stone that we would be serviced by Alexander because that's just where my entire family goes whenever we lose someone. It's been that way for as long as I can remember. And now I understand why, in the best way possible.
