Peeples Family Funeral Homes

02/22/2026

We are thankful for our funeral directors and staff that work daily to serve the needs of our community!

Being continually misunderstood by the public and misrepresented by the media doesn’t stop funeral professional from doing praise-worthy work every day. It is not pride or recognition that motivates funeral directors, but rather a feeling of personal fulfillment after helping someone in need. Every single day, behind the door of a funeral home, a truly beautiful moment is taking place that demonstrates the power of remembrance. Most of these moments are private, unseen by others outside of the funeral service community and the families they serve. Just because there are no images of funeral directors carrying people from a burning building does not meant that they do not rescue people in turmoil on a daily basis.

Greatest Gift
"One of the greatest gifts my father ever gave me was help planning his very own death. About a month or two before he died, he sat me down at the kitchen table and he helped me make a list of everything I needed to do once he was gone. I couldn’t believe he was asking me to do this, but he was adamant, and so I sat there as he helped me to make a list of everything I would have to do. Call the mortuary, write an obituary, order death certificates, close bank accounts. I cried as I wrote things down, in disbelief of the entire moment.
But you know what? After he was gone, the first thing I did was get out that list and it was like he was still there with me, parenting me through his own death. I never would have had any idea about what to do, who I needed to call, or where to look for information about any of this. It was truly such a GIFT that my father helped me to prepare for these tasks."
