From the moment I set foot in Vickery Funeral Home I felt so comfortable. The care and compassion that Dan presented was so comforting to me. Dan was so nice and all questions presented to him were answered in a caring way. What a great funeral we had for my father and that was due to the Vickery Funeral Home. There is no better funeral home around. Thank you so much. Sincerely, DONALD A. JONES

When my mother passed they were very professional and sympathetic. They took very good care of her and even stayed open after hours so my daughter who lives 3 hours away could have time with her. They made a very hard time in our lives a little bit easier. Thank you.

My experience with Vickery Funeral Home and with Dan went above expectations. During the time of the passing of our father... Dan was the man behind the curtain...each and every detail along with comfort support was provided and just appeared. From the call of Dads passing to the grave site ceremony... all handled professionally and with sense of urgency. Even with details decided by the departed, there is much to decide and Dan facilitates with love and care... his heart shines through. Thank you. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend Vickery Funeral Home!
