What Our Families Say About Us

Independent, Locally Owned & Operated

“As a minister I have done many funerals. This place is top notch. Family owned. Clean, prepared, professional, caring, and pleasant.”

Google ReviewVerified · Greenville, TX

“Cannot speak highly enough of this group of wonderful people. They truly give their all to their clients and families. From start to finish, they are attentive and caring. One of their staff, Brittany Sims, not only takes care of the community when she's at work but when she's not there. Raising donations for hurricane relief, elderly citizens in need, helping churches raise money, and spearheading Blue Santa to help children of Hunt County.”

Paige Sandlin

“There are few things harder in life than handling the passing of a loved one. However, from the moment I heard Brittany's voice on the other end of the phone I knew my family and I made the correct choice in choosing Coker-Mathews. No one can prepare you for the rush of feelings that overwhelm your body the second you step into a funeral home. As your world is forever changed, the gentle touch of Brittany's hand on your shoulder reminds you that you're not alone.”

“Brittany is such a nice person. I met her when my mother was involved in an ATV wreck; she was very caring for the situation we were in. I then saw her again when she held my grandfather's service and she was very kind and compassionate to my family!”

Erik Duncan

“Being in the funeral industry myself, I know that it takes a lot of compassion, work, tears, strength, dignity, kindness and many other traits to help families through their most difficult times. They go above and beyond to make sure all of their families leave knowing the doors are always open and they are now family to them.”

“This is an excellent place to go when you're at your most vulnerable moment, losing a loved one. They have the most professional team, and no detail is too small when it comes to having the viewing, memorial and graveside services. Our family has used their services to bury our parents and two brothers.”
