Mercer Funeral Home & Crematory

Mercer Funeral Home & Crematory Since 1921, we have been a family-owned and operated funeral home, dedicated to service and compassion to others in their greatest time of need.

Mercer Funeral Home & Crematory is proud to be a family-owned and operated business that has served Mercer and McDowell counties in West Virginia and Tazewell and Bland counties in Virginia since 1921. In our small and close-knit community, we consider those that we serve to be our friends, neighbors, and family. We are committed to providing affordable services to all who place their trust in us.

As a small-town business, we understand the need to have services that fit every budget and situation. We offer many service and memorial options that gives each family flexibility in meeting their own needs. We also pre-planning and pre-gunning funeral arrangements. We offer many plans so that arrangements can be tailored to each individual's needs. We also operate a crematory on premises and offer a wide variety of service options for those families who choose cremation. We offer one of the largest and most modern facilities in the area with nearly 14, 000 square feet on one level. We are completely handicapped accessible, have a large chapel with five aisles for ease of movement, large visitation rooms with a home-like atmosphere, and ample parking. Our staff is available 24 hours/day to care for those we serve. "Our Family Serving Your Family...Because We Care."
