Our Mission
The Mission of Kissee-Schofield-Eakins Funeral Home is to provide guidance and information with the highest level of compassion, competence, professionalism and courtesy.
Company Overview
We are Committed to the utmost level of integrity to the families we serve, before, during and after the loss of a loved one. It is our goal to serve each individual family with quality professional service and value and to provide personalized funeral and cremation services to honor and celebrate the life of a loved one.
We are Dedicated to be the most ethical, professional, and attentive funeral service provider in our profession and to serve families as we would serve our own, with tenderness, dignity and respect.
As with the option of burial, cremation can occur after a traditional funeral celebrating the life of the deceased where the casket is present at one’s place of worship or a funeral home chapel. Often times the only difference between a funeral celebration followed by a burial and one followed by cremation, is that the body is taken to the crematory after the services instead of the cemetery.
The memorial service, like a funeral, is a service of remembrance, only without the body present. A family may choose to have the cremation process take place and then hold a service in a church or at the funeral home with the cremated remains displayed in the selected urn. The urn is usually placed on a table with a portrait of the deceased and a vase of flowers or other floral tributes.
Veteran or military burial services is an honor to be a part of honoring those who have served our country so bravely. We are deeply committed to providing families with exceptional veterans’ services and can assist you in securing military burial benefits.

I used KSE Funeral Home for my dad's service. They were exceptional in providing good service and care. They were very reasonable in price. Thank You for the great service and the attention you gave my family during this hard time.

Funeral home services are never something anyone wants to have to search for a loved one but KSE Funeral Home was the exact opposite of what everyone dreads about these services. No car salesman approach, but rather complete transparency in pricing and no pressure for any particular options. No coldness, but rather warmth and the utmost care from every single staff member. Nothing left to chance, but instead attention to every single detail in an amazing way. I can't say enough about how much KSE Funeral Home made a sad, stressful time so much easier to deal with by making the process so easy and providing a service that truly and amazingly honored my loved one's passing.

KSE Funeral Home was so attentive and personal. I felt as though they were family, so attentive, and personal. I never would have thought that this day would be a good day, as I put my mom to rest. Well, we had no stress and only focused on mom with great memories. We had pre-planned and I highly recommend it. Everything went wonderful!!! Thanks to all of you for your professionalism, and care during this time. Very happy!
