Caring, Compassion, Excellence.

Unlike some funeral homes in our area that are a part of a large corporation, our funeral home has been independently owned and operated by the Watson family for three generations of professional, dignified and caring services to the families of our community.

Our caring professional licensed staff is committed everyday to the assistance and personal needs of our friends and neighbors. The time of funeral is one where family and friends are sensitive; our funeral home provides a place of solace and caring. Each family we serve with compassion, dignity and most of all honesty.

Our commitment to the community is to serve families of all faiths. We provide our families with pre-arranging options that can be tailored to satisfy their individual needs. The Watson Funeral Home attention to details makes the difference because our “FAMILIES ARE FIRST”

Sincerely,
W. Raymond Watson III
