Sullivan-King Mortuary and Crematory A Reputation of Trust since 1923

Sullivan-King Mortuary and Crematory is the oldest funeral home in Anderson, SC. A less formal option is a life celebration.

Founded in 1923 by local families, Sullivan-King Mortuary and Crematory is an honored and respected provider of death care services in Anderson, SC, and the surrounding Upstate. With almost 100 years in business, they are widely respected, trusted, and honored in the community. The funeral planning team knows how vital the final goodbye is to those who attend the end-of-life service. They want to personalize the event so that patrons will gain adequate closure and remember the good times they shared with the deceased. In addition to standard funeral products, they also offer graveside markers made from granite, bronze, and marble to create the most admirable permanent memorials. Sullivan-King Mortuary and Crematory can accommodate all types of funeral services, including cremations at the on-site crematory. For traditional options, you may choose a funeral followed by a graveside ceremony. Direct cremation is cremation without a memorial service and is the most budget-friendly option. Families often gather on their own time to spread the ashes. Cremation with a memorial ceremony can be selected, and the memorial can be held months later if that is most convenient. There is not a strict timeline to follow as there is not a body waiting for burial. This party-like event can include music, dancing, art, hobby displays, a talent show, and more. You can customize any of the events to your liking to reflect the desires of the deceased. For those fallen who served our country, Veteran Services and Military Honors are included in the programs. Do not hesitate to make any request, no matter how out-of-the-box. The oldest funeral home in Anderson, SC, has been around this long because they put the families they serve above all the rest. Sullivan-King Mortuary and Crematory serves Anderson, Pendleton, Townville, Belton, Powdersville, Williamston, Piedmont, Pelzer, Starr, and Clemson. They offer products for sale through the home, including caskets, urns, memorials, vaults, niches, mausoleum options, crypts, and a variety of grave markers. Ask about grief resources that are available to help with the mourning process. If you have a funeral that is still years in the future, you can partake in the preplanning services offered by Sullivan-King Mortuary and Crematory.
