Funeral Homes
“Hickory Funeral Home is one of the long standing funeral services located in Hickory NC. We have had both our mom and dad's funeral arrangements made here by them prior to their deaths. Experiencing their deaths was hard enough, but knowing Hickory Funeral Home had pre-arrangements made by our parents made the hard decisions easy. Very professional and very caring with our family during the initial meetings, through the funeral and after. I would recommend Hickory Funeral Home to anyone.”
“My aunt passed away on May 14, 2024. Wesley was present at the home when we pulled up to be with my cousin. He was very gentle and comforting from the moment he met us in the driveway. I watched Wesley and his coworker lay my aunt on the stretcher, and they did it with such care and compassion. Wesley, then, came back and answered all the questions that I had. When we met with Wesley at the funeral home a few days later, he made the atmosphere lighter for us. Instead of funeral talk, we had conversations about other things, since I know his wife, in between the difficult parts of the conversations.
I was, even, able to reach out to Wesley on Facebook with questions and the picture that was used for my aunt's obituary. Yesterday was my aunt's memorial service. Wesley and Butch did an amazing job. Wesley met us in the parking lot and guided us into the church. He, then, guided us through what would happen during the service and, when it was time for us to walk to the front, I do believe he was singing "Amazing Grace". After the service, he made it a point to instruct each vehicle on how the procession would work, and then when we arrived at her interment, Wesley and Butch made every effort to make us comfortable.
I will forever be grateful for Wesley and Butch. They did a phenomenal job and we are blessed.”
