J. C. Battle & Sons Funeral Home

JC Battle and Sons Funeral Home went above and beyond for me after the untimely death of my younger brother. This amazing family-owned funeral home has been around 90 years and currently is guided by third-generation son JC Battle III. JC treats everyone with compassion, dignity and respect; furthermore, his calm demeanor and encouragement continues to help us during this difficult time. I was especially touched to learn of this funeral home's commitment to help Vietnam Veterans and their families and those of our heroes that succumb to the horrors of PTSD and mental illness. This family of morticians is exactly what you need in your corner during a loved one's passing. Highly and without a doubt, recommend!

I attended a home going service for my beautiful friend and upon reaching the casket I immediately smelled decomposition, which has never happened at Any funeral I’ve been to. I was blown away at all the stains on her dress and how unprofessional this was. The gentleman that worked there was rude and unfriendly At A Funeral and I would just like to know how you all store the deceased because this is unforgivable. Do not use this place they need to do better Quickly.

Yesterday, I was looking forward to watching the Home going service of my cousin. Unfortunately the funeral home had the family sit online for 30 minutes to watch nothing! Then they provided a new link, to again watch nothing! An hour of wasted time. I called the funeral home and was told they would call me back, of course they didn’t! A total waste of time! If you want this service for your family, don’t depend on JC Battle and Sons. It’s so hard to get good and quality service these days.

This has been by far the worst funeral experience of my life. Between the funeral home and my step dads sister they took it upon themselves to do whatever they wanted with my mothers funeral and lie straight to my face. Everything that my family had wanted done that was agreed upon wasn't done and what we were strongly against is what they had done; for example I didn't want them to sing I had told them I was getting songs together to be played and the funeral home people sung anyway. We didn't want them to speak at the funeral due to having our preacher doing it and they spoke anyway making it hard for pur preacher to do so. My mothers body was poorly done. She didn't resemble herself at all not to mention the fact they made my mothers chest 4xs the size it naturally is and made it look as if an 11 year old girl stuffed her bra with plastic shopping bags. They waited 10 days after her death to do anything and by the time we were able to have the funeral my mother was grey! There were many spelling errors to the program and not all were corrected. The obituary wasn't even done nor posted on their website until the day after we laid my mother to rest and it didn't mention anything about my mothers children or grandchildren like discussed in the face to face meeting. They didn't even get the casket I had chosen for my mother correct. They managed to get the lining color incorrect. They allowed someone to sign someone elses name and said it was ok due to the fact the directors brother was a notary and he could have him noterize the documents without question. I feel this place is corrupt and made a mockery of my family. I wouldn't reccomend this funeral home to my worst enemy. Noone deserves the things that my family had to endure from this facility.

They're a very shady business, no funeral home would start embalming a body before any payments were made also, no funeral home would start any type of prep before the will is read (it's illegal to). The staff is very uninformed about the process of embalming one of the works told me it was completely safe to embalm a body ( which is a complete lie). When it comes to make obituaries they do not know how to in chronological order.
