"I am so glad we chose Drum Funeral Home in Hickory to provide services upon my mother's death. From the moment we first contacted them to their phone call after the funeral to see if we had any other needs, the staff was compassionate and accommodating in every way. Duane Alexander guided my family through this very delicate process as a true professional who cared about honoring my mom and in making this process as easy as possible for us. He conveyed to us in everything that he did and said that my mom's funeral would not be looked upon as a 'number' from the many funerals he's helped to plan and direct, but that hers would be as special as she was to us. We could not have asked for a better experience during this most difficult time."
