J C Harwell & Son Funeral Home

I have visited many funeral homes in my life, and I have never been as pleased as I was when they did my grandfathers funeral this week. Tommy is a class act, he isn’t the pushy sales person that many other funeral home are and it shows. I have truly dreaded this day since I’ve been old enough to understand death. The day my mom has to face the passing of her dad. Her hero and best friend. Tommy’s initial phone call at 5am to ask questions about my grandfather, and plan for his removal was the nicest. She literally hung up the phone and said that guy is the sweetest. I had dealing with Tommy when my grandfathers mother passed 9 years ago, and remembered how great and real he was. He smiles, shakes your hand and makes a joke when it’s necessary. Unlike others that have cold hands and seems to of just sucked on a lemon before approaching you. All the staff are amazing from Tommy, Mary Evelyn, Mark, and Rob. They all understand great customer service, and strive to exceeds your expectations. Many Thanks to this team, Justin Snipes

We could not have had a better experience under very difficult circumstances relating to my Mother's passing. I am truly thankful for the people at Harwells and I appreciate the dignity, respect, and very caring regard by everyone who was involved.

While visiting the town of Covington, Georgia, my family was walking around the area. There are beautiful homes and friendly people....except here at this funeral home. My two girls needed a restroom. I THOUGHT that if this nearby funeral home was open, we might be able to use their facility. We aren't from around here and I didn't know what to do. This was the only business I saw at that moment. There was one vehicle in the parking lot. They were open. A lady came and graciously showed us where the restrooms were. While waiting, a rather large man came out into the corridor and asked if I needed any assistance. I told him that my girls needed restroom and a lady directed us to the facilities. He said, "REALLY," then shook his head and left me grumbling something. VERY RUDE! I thought there was still such a thing as Southern Hospitality. Not at this place of business. I later thought of how I could have done something differently. But, there was no noticeable place to go potty. And like I said before, we aren't from around here. We are out walking. Short of peeing in the grass, I really don't know what I Could have done differently. If ylu are in need of their services here, speak with the kind lady. But, beware of the large man. He doesn't seem compassionate & hospitable. Yes, I understand that they probably don't want to open their doors for public restroom use. I was just in a bind and literally didn't know where to turn. When you need compassion, try to find someone who REALLY cares.
