About

Mattox-Wood Funeral Home in Terre Haute, Indiana, provides families with custom funeral and memorial services that celebrate their loved ones with personal attention. Our on-site crematory means that families who choose cremation have the assurance of knowing that their loved ones never leave our care. A flexible reception space allows you to host friends and family for a catered gathering at the funeral home.

Compassionate care

Our caring team considers it an honor to assist families. We know the burden of planning a service and will be there every step of the way. Our families receive support throughout the entire process—from deciding on a budget to writing an obituary, selecting floral arrangements to working with a 3rd-party caterer and more. All of our services are designed to provide comfort to grieving families and friends and help begin the healing process.

Personalized funerals and cremations

The team at Mattox-Wood Funeral Home is honored to help you plan a celebration that reflects the personality and passions of yourself or a loved ones. From photographs and keepsakes to food and music, a personalized funeral or memorial service can be as simple or elaborate as you desire. We can help you find inspiration almost anywhere—in a favorite song, hobby or even an iconic style—and turn that inspiration into a memorial filled with thoughtful and meaningful details.

Whether you are seeking a basic cremation with a heartfelt toast, a traditional funeral service with a cemetery burial, or a creative event complete with live music, a favorite meal, and funeral favors, we take care of every detail. Imagine it: From gardening to golfing, ranching to racing, dirt bikes to donuts, we take the things that matter most to someone and string them together to create a memorable memorial. We are here to help you and your family celebrate life like no other.

A private on-site crematory

Not everyone knows that there are many cremation options. If you are interested in cremation, the funeral home team can explain the process and the different memorial and burial choices. From a direct cremation without a service to a full funeral service before or after the cremation and more, we help you understand the variations in this increasingly common decision. Mattox-Wood Funeral Home has a private crematory on-site, which means your loved one is always in our care.

Providing peace of mind

At Mattox-Wood Funeral Home, we also recognize funeral arrangements and associated expenses can be overwhelming. In addition to assisting during your immediate time of need, our caring staff specializes in working with families to plan final arrangements in advance. By preparing these details ahead of time, you provide a sense of relief, peace of mind and comfort for your loved ones while ensuring your wishes are met to specifications. This option also provides you with a personal planning guide where you can record moments you want highlighted to tell your own story.

History

The Mattox family began providing funeral ceremonies for northern Vigo County families in the Fontanet community. Outgrowing the existing facilities, Mattox-Wood Funeral Home was built in North Terre Haute. In an effort to provide the Wabash Valley community with professional cremation care, a crematory was added. We continue to innovate and offer more ways to serve our families.
