“My family has used Woody Funeral Home services for decades, but this time it was I who had the task of getting my mother's cremation services request in place. Matthew Lowery met with me at the Parham Road location. He answered every question I had, introduced all options, and with professional courtesy and patience helped me arrive at a decision that accommodated my mother's wishes. His thoroughness and no-pressure approach put me at ease throughout our meeting. I also asked for several packets of information for myself and other family members, and I highly recommended Matthew's services.”

“The entire staff were incredibly kind and helpful. Brandon made the process of arranging the funeral feel smooth and reassuring during a difficult time. From the viewing to the graveside service, the staff took exceptional care of us and treated our family as if we were their own.”
— Annette Woolwine
“I was very comfortable speaking with Anne about my preplanning of my Celebration of Life. Being able to have a virtual, no pressure meeting was very convenient and informative. Although I hope to live for a long while, I am comfortable knowing that my children will not have to worry about making any final arrangements for me when my time comes. Never mind having to be concerned about the rising costs! Wonder customer service—highly recommend everyone to pre-plan their Celebration of Life!”
