OUR STORY

Three generations.

A family business built on dignity, care, and trust — for over seventy years in Tullahoma.

OVER SEVENTY YEARS IN TULLAHOMA

Three generations of the Welton family — one purpose, unchanged.

We walk alongside families during the most difficult moments of their lives — with compassion, dignity, and unwavering professional standards. The family who opened these doors is the family who answers your call today.

  3. Granddaughter, third generation, current owner

    Tracie Welton Burnett
