This long-standing legacy speaks volumes about our dedication and commitment to serving our community with the highest standards of care. Family-owned means our business is deeply rooted in tradition and personal connection, translating into a more heartfelt and experienced approach to funeral services. 

Personalized and Compassionate Service 

At Fitchett-Mann Funeral Home, we understand that every family is unique, as are their needs and wishes. Our family-owned status allows us to offer personalized and compassionate service tailored to each family.

Comprehensive Services to Meet All Needs 

Family-owned funeral homes often provide a wide range of services catering to their community’s diverse needs. Fitchett-Mann Funeral Home is no exception. We offer a comprehensive suite of services, including personal meetings to arrange funeral or memorial services, preparation and listing of obituary notices, cremation services, traditional funeral services, chapel and church services, graveside burials, various religious services, and military services. Our all-inclusive mortuary services ensure that every aspect of the funeral is handled with care and professionalism, relieving families of additional stress during a difficult time.

Our commitment to inclusivity ensures that every family feels valued and understood.

This level of respect and personalization is a hallmark of our family-owned approach. 

Flexibility and Attention to Detail 

Family-owned Fitchett-Mann Funeral Home offers flexibility and meticulous attention to detail that more extensive corporate funeral homes might not provide. We understand that not everyone is interested in the traditional setting of a funeral home. Therefore, we offer accommodations outside of our facility, whether at your home or a location your loved one requested. This flexibility allows us to create a service that truly honors the wishes and personality of the deceased. Additionally, our attention to detail ensures that every aspect of the service, from floral tributes to catering arrangements, is handled with the utmost care and precision.
