I met with Mr. Joel Davis and finally met Emily with whom I'd spoken to on the phone many times. We…read moremet at the Crestview location. I love this place! It is immaculate, peaceful, and pure down home Southern country. Mr. Davis explained the details for arranging my own services in a pleasant, funny, casual, and very professional manner. Ms. Emily is an intelligent, professional, and extremely knowledgeable person. The prices and services offered are so affordable! Every single detail of legalities, medical, necessities, accommodations, and services necessary for such an elegant, beautiful, caring way to leave this earth are explained in detail. Do your loved ones a very caring favor and arrange details beforehand. Thank you, Davis-Watkins family and everyone!

I want to give a huge shout out and thanks to the team at Davis-Watkins Funeral Home in Ft Walton…read moreBeach, Florida. My mothers health crisis, and death was extremely unexpected and when I arrived at the funeral home, I was treated with the utmost respect by the staff. Justin, Malachi, etc we're all consummate professionals from the very beginning. Like many people that are confronted by the untimely decisions that come with an unexpected death..I was a bit emotional at the time everything transpired when I arrived at their business. They took the time to explain every decision to me, make sure I understood everything that I was signing, and helped me along with one of my friends pick out the stationary, the vault, casket, organize the services, etc. They and their staff were constantly available to answer any and ALL questions I had which took a huge amount of stress off of my shoulders. It was also extremely convenient how I was able to upload the selections of the songs that were played in rotation at the memorial, as well as the pictures on the website for the chapel services. After the graveside service by my moms chosen pastor they remained in contact to answer other questions that I had regarding followups about the death certificates as well. In addition, they worked to get the funeral done in a professional expedient manner despite the fact that it was a holiday weekend. They actually called Beal Memorial cemetery ahead of time - to make sure that the manager was on staff so I could set up everything there. I made it there with an hour to spare! If I could give both them and their staff 10 STARS I would.

After not being able to reach my brother by phone for 5 days, I requested help from his local…read moreSheriff department. They informed me that his landlord had found him, deceased, a few weeks earlier. This was crushing news. My brother's body had been sent to Peavy Funeral Home, cremated and stored for some time period (to see if anyone would come forward). I was very relieved to know that I could, at least, have his ashes. I asked what the cost would be to have them shipped, expecting around $100. The funeral director spouted off something around $3,500. I was shocked and confused. He explained that I would have to pay for the cremation, storage and shipping of my brother's remains. "What happens if I can't afford that?" He informed me that the remains would be disposed of and that the county would pay his fee. I am a schoolteacher on a very tight budget. It saddens me greatly that I have no right to my family member's ashes, unless I can buy them for an exorbitant amount of money.

Well, If all you want to do is shove your loved one in a hole in the ground, then Peavy funeral…read morehome is the place to go. Since Mr. Peavy Sr turned the business over to his son Travis and daughter in law...the compassion is gone and all they will do is shove your loved one in a hole in the ground. They will not honor their word, even when you have a written contract for pre paid funeral services. They will make excuses for why they can't. Travis will make excuses and belittle you for asking them to fulfill the contact and verbal agreements. Travis probably cares as much for grieving people and the deceased as much as he probably cares for a dead animal on the side of the road....maybe even less. My Mom was embalmed in a different state then transported to Peavy for internment services. When she left the funeral home here, she was neat, pretty and looked professionally "coifed". When I saw her next in Florida she looked like she fell out of the hearse and plopped back in the coffin. No one bothered to straighten her hair and clothing. See, we at first said we wanted a closed casket....but then some of my siblings asked if she could see her one last time. Travis didn't count on that...He thought he wouldn't get caught letting my Mom remain disheveled and uncared for. Oh and while I'm on the topic...at my Dad's funeral Travis stood in the back of the sanctuary laughing and yukking it up with some friends about hunting. I actually turned around in my pew so I could shoot him a dirty look to make him quiet down. Marlon Peavy was a compassionate gentleman. I don't know if the other funeral home in town is any better I have no experience with them. But I have to believe no one else in the funeral business could care any less than Travis Peavy. As for the value. I had a written agreement with Mr. Peavy's blood daughter for the cost of the funeral. Well, Travis and his wife ran her off, and then would not honor what the agreement was and additionally approved by Mr. Peavy Sr. They tried to tell me Mr. Peavy senior denied knowing what the agreement was, yet I have emails with his name all through it giving approvals. I prepaid for a specific casket...they told me that I could no longer have it, I was told some flowers were included in the package...no flowers came (other than the ones my friends and family sent). I was told, by Travis(ty) that they will not finish my moms grave unless I send them more money....yet the service was already paid in the contract. He's just muscling me out of more money for his pockets. No one, in all my conversations with his wife ever mentioned an additional weekend fee...until he got involved. I'll pay them the fee because he is holding my mother's grave ransom over $650.00!! Shameful...money grubbing behavior. Blountstown is a small town in which most everyone knows everyone else. I am not a local, but I have friends there. When I was telling my friend about all this, she (who is a local) stated the town is already talking that the son's behavior is ruining the business his father built. She further advised she has friends who have already chosen the other funeral home in town because they don't want to deal with Travis. Good luck Travis....I'm going to make sure I tell everyone what you said to me this morning...oh and when you hung up on me for calling you out on being rude to me. Yep...folks you read that right...he hung up on me when I told him his father would never speak to anyone the way he had just spoken to me...click....
