Reviews

★★★★★

Everyone at Curley Funeral home was amzing! They were so kind and helpful and never ever pushy or salesy I really believed they just wanted to help us make the right decision for us and our situation and as people planning an unexpected funeral for the very first time they were a god send. Tom, the funeral director, was there for us 24 hours a day and both he and his assistant, Julie, made us feel like we were the only people they were working with even though it was clear there were many other services going on. We feel so luck to have found them.

What a difference a funeral home makes!!!! Everyone at Curley Funeral Home was respectful, courteous, kind, and caring. We were able to focus on mourning the loss of our mother without the burden of listening to a sales pitch as we had done in the past with a different funeral home in the area.

Frequently Asked Questions

If the death is expected, contact the funeral home when you are ready and they can guide next steps. If the death is unexpected, call emergency services first as needed. When you call, be ready to share the person’s name, location, and any immediate timing needs.

Yes. Many families need a service planned on a short timeline due to travel, religious customs, or cemetery scheduling. The funeral home can help you focus on the most important decisions first, then finalize details like music, readings, and printed materials as plans come together.

Cremation can be paired with many types of gatherings, including a visitation, a funeral service, or a memorial service held later. Ask about timing, whether a public viewing is desired, and options for an urn or keepsakes. The funeral home can explain what is possible in your situation.

Common items include full legal name, date and place of birth, address, marital status, parent names, occupation, and military service (if applicable). You may also need Social Security information for paperwork. If you don’t have everything immediately, the staff can help you collect details over time.

Yes. The funeral home can help draft and place an obituary and share service information in a clear, respectful way. Families typically provide key biographical details, survivors, and preferences for charities or flowers. Ask about proofreading, timelines, and where the notice will be published.

Pre-planning documents your wishes so your family is not guessing later. You can choose the type of service, preferred cemetery arrangements, and people to notify. It also helps organize vital information in one place. You can update your plan as life circumstances and preferences change.

Most funeral homes regularly work with a range of traditions and can coordinate with clergy, celebrants, and community leaders. Share any specific customs early—such as timing, prayers, music, or attire—so the staff can help arrange the right setting and schedule while respecting your family’s practices.

If travel is difficult, ask about options such as live streaming, recorded video, or private online sharing. These tools can help distant relatives participate, offer condolences, and feel included. Availability can vary by date and service type, so it’s best to discuss needs as early as possible.

The right choice depends on personal beliefs, family traditions, cemetery plans, and practical considerations. Some families choose burial for a specific gravesite, while others prefer cremation for flexibility with memorialization. The funeral home can explain options without pressure so you can decide what fits your values.
