If your loved one served our country, Peebles honors that service with full military honors, including flag draping and veteran-specific ceremonies at no additional charge. When you select a traditional funeral or memorial service with us, the following items are included at no charge:

Peebles Funeral Home proudly displays American flags at the gravesites of men and women who served in the Armed Forces. We utilize local Boy Scout troops to help place the flags, and they receive credit for their service as well.

What's the difference between cremation and burial in Bartlett?
Cremation reduces the body to ash through high heat, with options for scattering, burial, or keeping ashes at home. It's typically less expensive and offers more flexibility. Our cremation services include direct cremation ($4,535–$9,150), cremation with ceremony ($6,045–$6,470), or memorial service only ($4,905–$5,330).
Burial places the body in a casket in a cemetery. It allows for a traditional graveside service and a permanent memorial location. Our traditional funeral with burial starts at $6,155 without grave opening and closing, or $7,140 with grave opening and closing.
Both are available for Bartlett families through Peebles.
