For you and your family's safety, only the closest of immediate family is permitted to gather for services. Per our governor's instruction, we are adhering to private gatherings and burials. Other family and friends may call our local telephone number (606)832-2191 and we will put your name in your loved one's memorial book. Thank you for your understanding through these challenging times. We are all trying to do the best that we can during this outbreak of covid-19. We are taking your health seriously. Anyone with fever, chills or other flu-like symptoms, please do not place others at risk by being in a private arrangements conference or a private family funeral gathering. A family may utilize FaceTime or other social media platforms to include other family and friends during service. NO MORE THAN 10 TOTAL PERSONS MAY BE ADMITTED IN OUR FACILITIES AT ONE TIME. 

If a loved one passes away at home, please call 911 immediately. Unless the person was under hospice care, it will be necessary for a coroner to be contacted. The 911 personnel can assist you with calling the coroner. The coroner or hospice nurse will contact us when they feel it is appropriate.

If a loved one passes away a long distance from their home, in another city or state, unless the death occurs in a hospital, nursing home or hospice, you should probably call 911. If the death has occured in a hospital or nursing home, or hospice house, someone in charge will ask you if there is a funeral home that you would like contacted. If it is the intention of the family to have the deceased returned to Letcher County-without any type of services where the death has occured-then please contact us directly. It is not necessary for you to contact a funeral home in the town or city where the death occured. We can make the arrangements to have your loved one returned to Letcher County from nearly anywhere in the world.
