Happy snowy Monday morning! We hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed the snow while staying safe.

We are looking to revive community events we used to host years ago, but would like to gage interest within the community before making commitments. We have the idea of hosting a Gospel Night every two or three months. We would like to invite the community, churches, and anyone who would like to come join us. ALL ARE WELCOME!

We would like to take these events and use them to benefit the community so anyone who comes and feels led to donate canned goods may do so as well. We will be distributing these to local food pantries.

Before we start this, we would love feed back from the community. Thoughts and opinions? Any questions, please feel free to also call the funeral home at 865-426-2158.
