I was in a complete state of shock, the dog was barking, and I didn't have the slightest idea how the process worked. Mr. Snowden was wonderful with me! It was Friday night and I caught him out at dinner. He took my call and was so kind and gentle on the phone even though I was clearly giving him attitude for eating dinner when my mom needed to picked up. He spoke to my dad and and was so understanding. I waffled back and forth whether to use a different company because I thought the price was too low (I was in shock, please understand). Mr. Snowden never seemed annoyed or frustrated with me. He remained polite and empathetic everyt time I called him to check when they were going to pick up my mom (minutes felt like hours - in all, it took them 2.5 hours to arrive). When the two gentlemen arrived to pick up my mom, they were very respectful, especially a young man named Chambers. Two days later, my dad, sister and I went to the funeral home to meet him. Mr. Snowden had such warm and sincere energy he treated us all with the utmost respect. We were just having her cremated and having a few Death Certificates made, he never tried to upsell us on anything. They had her remains, Death Certificates and all her paperwork ready by Wednesday that week, and they included a beautiful plaque. The whole process cost half what one funeral home wanted. I highly recommend Snowden Funeral Home. Mr. Snowden, thank you so much for treating my mom, and my entire family with such care and respect.

It is not easy making this review and I am not one to critic a place of business, but I feel I…read moreshould share my experience with Snowden Funeral Home for families that are, unfortunately, looking for a funeral home for their lost loved one(s). To start off, initially when meeting the staff, they were very welcoming. Mr. Dooms is very good at what he does and seems very sympathetic; at least before you sign off on that piece of paper agreeing to the costs for services, which is very expensive by the way... Business is business, and I can understand that. My issue is not with pricing or the cost but with the actual service my family received. To say the least, the "makeup artist" did a horrific job. After confronting Mr. Dooms and the makeup artist about our issues, they were extremely defensive, unapologetic and quite rude. This was very shocking since they had been so nice previously. This resulted in having a closed casket ceremony in which we absolutely did not want. This was completely amateur and unacceptable. There isn't much we can do now but I want to share our experience with anyone looking for a funeral home. This is a horrible choice for your family. They made an already horrible moment even worse. It is all about the money for them. They should be ashamed of themselves.

I remember for my grandpa funeral a long long time ago there was a manager name Tracy who was really good and was super helpful during the process. Since Tracy has been gone the quality is declining and now the business is just gear toward money making. The interior is old but clean. The viewing room is very spacious. When it time to leave and drive to the cemetery the funeral home doesn't have placard card to put into people car in case you get a ticket from going past a red light. All in all, if I had a choice I wouldn't use this funeral home but it the only one in the area that is close to the all soul cemetery.
