Conveniently located near our cemetery,
Hiwassee Memorial Gardens, as well as landmarks like Tennessee Wesleyan University and Heritage Park, our family-owned funeral home in Athens, TN, strives to put families first. Our Athens funeral home is a blend of elegance and comfort. As soon as you step inside, you’ll be greeted by our welcoming staff and the warmth of our fireplace. Each room is illuminated by an abundance of soft light, shining down upon home-like furnishings that will put you and your guests at ease. You’ll find helpful and homey touches throughout the funeral home, like a kitchen and multiple sitting areas. Our chapel is a perfect fit for services of any size, whether you’re holding a large community gathering or a more intimate farewell to your loved one. The chapel is filled with a mix of color and sophistication, thanks to the beautiful stained-glass windows and refined light fixtures overhead. Your guests can listen to music or hymns played on the grand piano, with elegant stonework as the backdrop.
We believe that gathering with loved ones during our most challenging moments can help send us on a journey toward healing. To begin this path, we offer funeral, burial, memorial, and cremation services in the Athens area that fit any faith, culture, or budget. Our crematory allows you to rest assured that, from when your loved one enters into our care to the moment they are returned to you, they will be respected and cared for by our knowledgeable, compassionate staff. We believe in the importance of allowing families and friends to come together, but we understand that not everyone is able to travel. While our spacious chapel and abundant parking allow your in-person visitors to gather, our webcasting technology allows those who cannot attend in person to still come together to honor the life of the one who passed.
Our funeral home in Athens is run by a family that’s long been proud to serve their community. The Cody family has helped thousands of families, both since Companion Funeral & Cremation Service opened in 2011 and even earlier when they operated the Constant Companion Pet Crematory. The Cody family and their well-trained, thoughtful staff strive to serve their community beyond the doors of their funeral home as well, through their work with local nonprofits, faith communities, and Athens events. Please contact our Athens, TN, funeral home to learn more about how we can serve your family.
