Learn our story, from the beginning and into the future.
Ever since we opened our doors we have approached life (and death) differently. While some just see the end of a loved one’s life as a time for grief and mourning, we prefer to think of it as a time for reflection, appreciation and even celebration. This is evident in everything we do, from the way we conduct our services to the amenities we choose to offer. We are not a burial ground. We are a close knit community dedicated to honoring, sharing and preserving the amazing and inspirational stories that are life.
Why Us?
In a nutshell? Experience, professionalism, compassion, and empathy.
We've learned a lot over many years. Like how to present options without overwhelming. And how to meet the needs of many caring parties. People come to us in difficult times, and we respond kindness, calmness and expertise. Our goal is to create a beautiful occasion and make you feel welcome, always. We spend our days planning with families. We stay up to date with industry developments. And we make hard times a little easier.
Learn the legacy.
McClendon Mortuary opened its doors in the fall 2011 as a family owned and operated funeral establishment. Our goal is to make every family that walks through our doors to feel at home. We have over 50 years of combined bereavement experience in our staff and funeral directors. The staff of McClendon Mortuary is trained to treat every person with the highest level of dignity and respect. It's an honor to be able to serve our community and we at McClendon Mortuary view the funeral industry not just as a business, but as a ministry.
