Sturgill Funeral Home was established in 1954 when two brothers, F.M. and Ray Sturgill bought the Estes-Cecil Funeral Home. They continued to work out of that location until 1959 when they moved in the new building which is our current location at 298 Harrell Street here in Pennington Gap, VA. F.M. Sturgill passed away in 1979 and the business continued on with Ray Sturgill and his son John.
In January of 1994 the Sturgill Funeral Home was purchased by Ben Mullins. After 28 years of our ownership and our loyalty to the Sturgill family we will be adding Mullins-Sturgill Funeral Home. The firm is operated by Ben and his wife Brenda. Other staff members include Clyde Scott, Zach Dorton and Thomas Livesay.

Plan Ahead
Report
Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.
Why Plan Ahead
Report
Many who have undergone the emotional strain of arranging a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from their loved ones by relieving decision-making pressure at a time of grief and emotional stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice.
