Not Your Average Funeral Home

The staff works hard to create a bright, lively atmosphere, helping their clients feel more positive and like home, and perhaps even encouraging them to share a laugh while celebrating the life of their loved one.

The team at Dante Jelks Funeral Home welcomes people from every financial background and every ethnic background, and they make it a point to keep their prices fair.

We sat down with Dante Jelks, the owner of Dante Jelks Funeral Home, to find out why he does what he does and how Dante Jelks Funeral Home works to make the world a better place:

“I’ve been in the funeral profession my whole life, and I’ve been in a lot of funeral homes, working for them, managing them, etc. There are not a lot of honest people out there. Have you ever heard the phrase, ‘You get what you pay for?’ That isn’t true, actually. We believe EVERYBODY should receive quality service regardless of your background. We want everybody to feel loved and appreciated!”

Building Success by Following the Golden Rule

Dante credits his business’ strong online reputation to their commitment to following the golden rule, which is:

“Treat others with love and respect, and be fair in all that you do.”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Dante Jelks Funeral Home has grown through television commercials on major stations, Google ads, Facebook marketing and word of mouth. They’ve also handed out flyers at several local churches and contributed to many charitable organizations.
