Riverwood Family Funeral Service has been monitoring the coronavirus
disease (COVID-19) restrictions and we want to take a moment to update
you on what we are doing and offer the latest guidance.
Due to new guidelines from the CDC, public gatherings have been limited
to 45 people or less. We will comply with these guidelines for your
safety.
The health and safety of the families we serve is of the utmost
importance. We are ready, willing and able to serve you at this time.
Practicing good hygiene is always important, so please wash your hands
and use the hand sanitizer we provide as you enter the building, we also
have masks as you enter, please use one if you do not have one. We
encourage you to practice the fist or elbow bumps and refrain from
shaking hands or hugging and please stay home if you are sick, the
family will certainly understand.
We understand that mourning a loved one is made easier by the closure
that funeral services provide. Most funerals are recorded here and we
also provide a full obituary with picture on our website, where you can
leave your thoughts and comments for the family to review. If you cannot
attend a funeral, this is another way to show your love and support.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to us at 601-833-6680 with any
additional questions. We are here to serve you and will do so at the
best of our ability.

At some time in our lives, most of us will make or assist in making funeral arrangements. This can mean making many decisions at a very difficult and emotional time. Funeral directors are there to offer help and guidance during one of life’s most difficult times, but there are things you can do to help yourself:
- Be an informed consumer. Be familiar with the rights afforded to you by the Federal Trade Commission's Funeral Rule. Don’t be reluctant to ask questions.
- Today’s there are a variety of options to meet your financial needs and wishes. Be sure to discuss all available options before making a decision.
- When selecting a funeral director, choose one who is licensed and has a good reputation in the community.
- Be prepared! Avoid the burden of making decisions while under emotional stress by organizing details with your funeral director ahead of time. Remember…preplanning doesn’t necessarily mean prepaying.
- Plan a personalized ceremony or service to help you begin the healing process. Getting through grief is never easy but having a meaningful funeral or tribute will help.
Whether you have just experienced a loss, or are considering making your own arrangements in advance, our intention is to do as much as we can to assist you. If you have any questions which are not addressed here, or which have not been sufficiently answered to your satisfaction, please call or email us. We thank you for your interest and your trust in us.
Riverwood Memorial Park is designed to provide a beautiful place of interment for you and your loved ones. Riverwood Memorial Park is located on twenty acres of picturesque property, conveniently located for easy access from Brookhaven and the surrounding areas.
Our flat markers provide a continuity throughout the cemetery which cannot be accomplished with above ground markers. Our perpetual care adds to the peace of mind that the cemetery is a place you can visit at any time. We take great pride in keeping the grounds in top shape year round.
