Dunsford Funeral Home & Crematory

Our Story

At Dunsford Funeral Home & Crematory, our mission is to provide a compassionate and supportive environment for families during times of loss. We are deeply committed to serving the Augusta community and surrounding areas with dignity, integrity, and understanding. Our legacy of service reflects our dedication to honoring the cherished memories of those who have passed. We believe in treating each family with the utmost respect and personalize our services to reflect the unique life and wishes of the individual being celebrated.

Our Values and Services

We are guided by three core values: sincerity, kindness, and integrity. These values permeate every aspect of our service, from the initial contact to the final farewell. It is our honor to accompany families through this difficult journey, offering a comforting hand and a listening ear. We understand that losing a loved one is a deeply personal experience, and we strive to create a space where families can grieve, remember, and find solace.

Our comprehensive range of services is designed to meet the diverse needs of families. We offer traditional funeral services that allow loved ones to gather at the funeral home or a house of worship to share their memories, pay their respects, and celebrate the life of the deceased. These services can include eulogies, musical selections, and religious or secular readings, personalized to honor the individual's beliefs and legacies.

For those seeking a more intimate celebration, we offer graveside services that provide a peaceful setting for reflection and tribute. We ensure the cemetery setting is beautifully prepared with provisions such as tents, seating, and vaults, offering comfort and practicality for the gathering.

In addition to traditional funerals, we also provide cremation services, understanding that this is a growing preference for many families. Our on-site crematorium allows us to control the entire process, ensuring the utmost respect and care for your loved one. Steve and Dawn Shelley, the owners, personally oversee the cremation process, providing families with the peace of mind knowing their loved one is treated with the utmost dignity and compassion.

Providing Peace of Mind

At Dunsford Funeral Home & Crematory, we recognize that pre-planning funeral arrangements can be a difficult but essential step in ensuring your wishes are honored and alleviating the burden on your loved ones during a time of grief. Our team is dedicated to guiding families through the pre-planning process with patience, understanding, and expertise.

We also understand that families may choose to transfer pre-existing arrangements from another funeral home. Our staff is happy to assist with this process, ensuring a smooth transition and compassionate continuation of care.

We believe that making informed decisions about your end-of-life wishes is a vital part of securing peace of mind for both you and your loved ones.
