About

Buffington Funeral Home in Shiner, Texas, understands the importance of preserving personal legacies in our historic community. We draw inspiration from the elements that make life vivid. A favorite color, beloved song or lifelong hobby can make a special appearance within a service to create a personalized connection.

Personalized funeral services

Each person's life is unique—and deserves to be celebrated in a unique way. At Buffington Funeral Home, our team excels at creating one-of-a-kind tributes that celebrate a loved one's passions and personality. Imagine a motorcycle processional with his treasured chopper leading the way. Envision a bridge tournament with a personalized deck of playing cards for each guest. From music and flowers to keepsakes and decor, we handle all of the details—no matter how big or small.

When you walk through our doors, we want you to feel at home. Our chapel welcomes guests from all backgrounds, cultures and faiths. We personally receive guests before and after each service at our chapel.
