Your feedback

We are always interested in hearing from the families that we serve.  Please take a moment to let us know how well we served you in your time of need. We very much appreciate your feedback.

Thank you so much for the way you directed my dad’s funeral and service. What felt like the weight of the world was made bearable because of how you handled everything—with eloquence, distinction, and honor. From the smallest details to guiding the multitude of people and cars in attendance, everything appeared seamless, though I know it was only possible through your careful guidance and dedication.

Our family was blessed to have my dad as our patriarch, and it was clear he also meant so much to so many others. Your efforts in directing his service allowed us to walk through the process, lay him to rest with dignity, and grieve while remaining open and vulnerable to the greater community.

Dad will be deeply missed, but I am thankful to God for the years we were given with him. I am also profoundly grateful to you for the essential role you played in this final act of love and respect.

With heartfelt thanks,
Julie Ozley-Rotanelli

My mother, Deborah Dial, would have never forgiven me had I worked with anyone other than Tommy Davis and his staff. She had worked with him for years, and he is fully trustworthy. Tommy is a local, and he has tirelessly worked to be a compassionate person for families during their bereavement for many years in Newton County. His experience is unmatched. Everything was lovely, and I was made to feel at ease during a very stressful time working closely with Brandy. My family and I are very appreciative!

Tommy and his staff took excellent care of us in my Mother’s passing(Martha Chambers). He had answers for our questions before they were asked. We thank God for their guidance in this sad time of our lives. Tommy we love you and thank you greatly for your servant heart in times of broken-ness. May God richly bless you is our prayer.

Thank you for the kindness and care shown to my family with the passing of my father. Every moment was perfect. From meeting with my mother and sisters to the graveside ceremony, you made sure my dad's wishes were honored. We felt respected and cared for. In this time, you became family and that meant everything.

The sudden passing of my beloved Debora left me in a complete state of shock. A local
merchant/friend recommended Harwell's...for which I will be eternally grateful. Mr. Tommy, his wife and staff guided my family and I through the worst days of our lives. My 41 years of marriage did not prepare me for the needed decisions from clothing to final resting place. The firm hand of experience guided us through each decision point to a successful and loving conclusion. Thank you seems inadequate and shallow but it's all I can offer. Thank You.
Respectfully,
