Everyone at Cody White was super sensitive while being helpful and precise. They helped move my loved one from out of state and they did it flawlessly. Britney, Amanda and Robert were amazing at keeping things moving on time while always being sensitive.

From the beginning of our interactions to the end of services with full Military Honors, the entire Cody White team was absolutely exceptional. Their wonderful service was greatly appreciated for a grieving family.
Sincerely,

Bethany at Cody-White Funeral home was the funeral director for a loved one and we couldn't be happier with her and her staff. From our initial meeting to the end of the funeral, she was extremely professional, respectful and compassionate. The preparation of our loved one way surpassed our expectations. She looked so beautiful and so at peace that it really touched our hearts and provided us with much comfort. We would highly recommend them.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cody-White Funeral Home
Do we need to have an obituary notice and what is included in one?
It is highly recommended to have an obituary notice that is either posted in a local newspaper or online. An obituary lets the public know that a death has occurred and provides them with information about the service. Obituaries generally include the deceased’s full name, age, city, and date of birth, as well as the city they were living in when they died. It also includes the name of the deceased’s spouse, along with the names of anyone else significant in their lives, such as parents, children, or grandchildren. Space may be limited in a newspaper obituary, but you might also wish to include a short sentiment on the life and legacy of the deceased. An online obituary or memorial website offers you the chance to add a lot more about the deceased.
Who are funeral directors and what do they do?
Funeral directors are in charge of all the logistics following a death. They complete all the necessary paperwork, make arrangements for the transportation of the body, and put into action the choices made by the family in regard to the funeral service and the final resting place of the body. Beyond all of this, funeral directors are there to provide emotional support and personal guidance in the wake of a loss.
