Downs Funeral Home is owned by Keith and Patricia Downs. There are no partners or share holders except the Downs. Our dedicated staff associates are also all local residents. In this era of corporate funeral homes with outside investors; we are proud to be truly locally owned and operated. Keith, a licensed mortician in both Texas and Louisiana, has 50 years of experience and over 40 years serving families in Harrison County.
Patricia served this area in the medical profession as a registered nurse, and as of 2009 is a licensed funeral director. Some funeral homes serve a very upper echelon of families, and some are more of a budget funeral home. Since our opening we have selected the middle market offering a superior professional service at a more moderate price.
