"We made our prearranged funeral plans with Leonetta Prevo. She was so helpful, nice, and easy to talk to. Robert Murdaugh was the Funeral Director when my husband passed. He was so helpful and nice in all ways. All of my expectations were surpassed. Everyone that we met there was so nice and courteous. They provide the nicest Guest Book and Program that I have ever seen. I would highly recommend Southern Heritage Funeral Home to everyone."

"The cost at Southern Heritage are more than double the price of other places. I was pressured by the hospital to find a place for my mom fast so I chose the closet place to my home. Knowing what I know now I could have saved my family $2500 in cost."

"The team at Southern Heritage Funeral Home delivered outstanding customer service during a time of sorrow for the loss of my precious mother, Cathy J. Barnes. The funeral director, Deauna Wright, went above and beyond taking care of all details for my mother's service. This included working on and off the clock, answering any and all questions, as well as, making sure my family and I were comfortable at all times. Deauna has a compassionate heart and kind spirit that will bring a smile to your face. The family service counselor, Leonetta Brown Prevo, also delivered excellent customer service to my family and I. The funeral arrangements for my mother have concluded, and Leonetta is still taking care of our family, helping with details that are to be taken care of with the weeks to follow. Her kindness, compassion, and sensitivity to the matters of grieving a lost loved one are immensely helpful, and much appreciated! The ladies, at Southern Heritage, I had the pleasure of working with included: Deauna, Leonetta, Jessica, and Katie. Each one made this difficult time, more bearable by their positive attitude, respectful nature, and sympathetic hearts. They all exceeded my family's expectations, and my mother's services were Beautiful, and complimented by all who attended. Thank you to the team at Southern Heritage for everything you have done and are continuing to do for me and my family. I will forever be grateful! -Mary Sutphin"

She was very sensitive to the fact that we were hurting and tired and took care of everything. We were able to have a local service, held in our church, and they did everything to ensure that all went seemlessly. I would recommend the services of Southern Heritage.
