A welcoming setting for funerals and receptions

Navarre Funeral Home & Cremation Services, at the corner of Emmett Hutto Boulevard and Rollingbrook Drive, has a beautiful chapel with traditional pews and a reception room designed to bring family and friends together in casual elegance.

Our staff specializes in creating tributes that reflect unique lives. We start with your stories, then help bring them to life with meaningful touches—catering that ranges from coffee and cake to full dinners, decor that showcases personal passions, and moments like a butterfly release, mariachi band or military salute. Whatever your vision, we take care of every detail so you can focus on what matters most: being with family and friends.

Specializing in veterans services

Our staff is well-versed in the benefits available to veterans and their families. With respect, integrity and dignity, we will walk you through the steps of creating a veterans memorial that truly honors the life and sacrifice of your loved one.

Here for you

We believe saying goodbye is not only about mourning a loss but also about honoring a life. From thoughtfully designed spaces to attentive, full-service planning, we’re here to create moments of comfort, connection and celebration—because every life deserves nothing less. We invite you to visit us and see how we’re different. We’d love to get to know you.

History

Paul U. Lee Funeral Home opened in Baytown in 1923.

Jess and Clara Navarre moved to Baytown from Dayton in 1967 with their three children, Mike, Chris and Judy. In their new hometown, they established Baytown Ambulance Service, which they ran until 1994.

The family acquired Paul U. Lee Funeral Home in 1984. Jess and Clara had worked in the funeral business in Dayton, and when they purchased the Baytown funeral home, they changed the business name to reflect their own.

In 2018, Navarre Funeral Home & Cremation Services became part of the Dignity Memorial^® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers.
