Adams-Foster-Ray Funeral Home

Adams-Foster-Ray Funeral Home The Barrow family established Barrow Funeral Home in the early 1900s near the turn of the century, and owned and operated the funeral home until 1955.

Bill Foster purchased the funeral home that year and later moved its location to the Faith Methodist Church building. Bill Foster served Jones County for many years, demonstrating great care and concern for families in need. In 1981, after 25 years of service, Mr. Foster sold the funeral home to Larry Adams. For nearly 30 years, Mr. Adams served the community of Hamlin with an emphasis on honor and respect, as well as great care and compassion. In 2001, Doug Ray joined the staff at Adams-Foster Funeral Home and worked and trained under Larry Adams. In 2009, when Mr. Adams was ready to retire, Doug and Lisa Ray purchased the funeral home. To this day, they carry on the legacy of the owners who came before them. The personal care and respect that Larry Adams always showed to families continues today through the compassion of Doug and Lisa Ray, De De Scifres and their knowledgeable, friendly staff.

Some love stays with us forever.
And what we’ve shared deeply can never be lost, it becomes part of who we are.

If you’re missing someone today, may their memory bring you comfort in quiet ways.

We hope you enjoy your special day, DeDe!

Grief is not something to fix, it’s something to honor.
The depth of our grief reflects the depth of our love, and mourning is a natural response to meaningful connection.
In this thoughtful article by Dr. Alan Wolfelt, he explores why our capacity to grieve exists because we first had the capacity to love.

For many, winter can bring a heavier emotional weight, especially for those carrying grief. The season slows us down, sometimes more than we’d like. Even so, some strength is built in stillness.

You may hear the terms viewing and visitation used interchangeably, but they can serve different purposes.
A viewing is typically a quiet time to pay respects in person, while a visitation is often a more open opportunity for family and friends to gather and offer support.
Both are meaningful in their own way.
