What makes a Denton funeral different?

Denton is a university town. Between the University of North Texas and Texas Woman's University, many of the families who call us are coordinating across generations and across the country — a student far from home, a professor, a family split between Denton and Dallas. We handle the Denton County filings, work with Denton's historic downtown congregations, and support university-community ceremonies when requested.

Serving all of Denton

We respond to at-need calls from every part of Denton, including Robson Ranch, Mayhill, Rayzor Ranch, Oakmont, Milam Heights, Downtown Denton, Providence Village area. Reaching Denton is a 36-mile run up I-35E from our North Dallas office, so we quote Denton families an honest 70-to-100-minute window rather than a promise we cannot keep.

ZIP codes served: 76201, 76202, 76203, 76204, 76205, 76207, 76208, 76209, 76210.
