Our Story

Memorial Funeral Home was founded by Mr. William "Shorty" Kilgore and Mr. Howard White in 1961. After Shorty's passing in 1968, his wife, Mrs. Frances Brandon Kilgore, continued the business, eventually handing it over to her children. In 1998, Stacey Parker and his wife, Melinda Dendy Parker, acquired the business, ensuring that the legacy of compassionate service continued for three generations. Today, we remain committed to honoring the memories of those we serve.
