Chestnut funeral home exceeded mine and my fiance's expectations for our son's celebration of life. The professionalism, care and timely handling of everything dealing with our loss has been amazing. Every question / concern we had was addressed professionally and ultimately with what was best or comfortable for our family. Mr. Rick's additional care of bringing our son's urns to my fiancee personally and answering any questions no matter how simple they were....was a blessing! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Charles Donald and the Donald family thank you for supporting our family during our time of loss!

I recommend Chestnut funeral home to anyone and everyone they are very personal understanding and they will work with you. They are very awesome. They sent me a message on my husband‘s birthday. Sending more condolences and hope I get through it which was very nice of them. I lost my husband not too long ago and they called and checked on me. They’re just awesome. I give him 1000 stars.
Although it was extremely difficult for me to function the same morning my mom died, Chestnut service couldn't have been more comforting. Everything was handled with care & professionalism. They effortlessly guided me through making both funeral & burial arrangements.
Thank you, Delores Perry
