Hated everything about it. The funeral was yesterday and I honestly wish we can do it again. They started the service early and had to be told twice by family to please wait as more people was coming in. The pastor skipped 4 people’s name in the obituary. The lady who worked for the funeral home was very rude and unprofessional. When the girlfriend got up to view the body for the last time she insisted that it was too late and that it was the pallbearers turn. Way out of line because why would you ever think that she would not want to view his remains for the last time. Not to mention The funeral time to start was 10am and at 10:30am they were rushing the last viewings so that they can close the casket. Didn’t even give the family an hour’s worth of service and the pastor must’ve was new because he barely said anything. Just imagine this being the last experience with your child. Absolutely horrible! I’m sorry but that was really awful.

This review is quite late but it has been on my heart to do for quite some time. In September 2014, our family lost our matriarch and I was a beneficiary of the standard of excellence with which Boyd operates. I had just become a minister and my grandma's service was my first funeral, my nervousness was greatly diminished with the help of the lovely team of funeral directors. The Boyd Family lived up to their name and treated me like a member of their family from the moment my family and I walked into their beautiful property for the service, until the last amen was spoken. Not to sound cliche, but my grandmother looked like she was sleeping; her make-up was soft and gentle, nails immaculate, just everything was on point. The whole experience, including the dove release in the parking lot made such a great impression on me. I fully recommend this funeral home to anyone in need kind and compassionate service.

When my father passed, we were lucky to contact Boyd's Family Funeral Home. From the first phone call to every interaction thereafter, we were impressed by the team's kindness, efficiency, thoroughness. Mr. Boyd and the team guided us through the process and everything went exactly as were told it would. We are grateful for all they've done and highly recommend them.

We had a home going celebration for my father Warren Fontenette. My sisters and I were grieving tremendously. What made it easier was how well you took care of our father. He really looked amazing and the service was beautiful, heartfelt, and genuine. I speak for the entire Fontenette family when I say Thank you, to The Boyd Funeral Home and Staff. Carol Fontenette

The most amazing experience my family had during such a tragic time in our lives. Mr. Boyd and his staff are excellent and extremely professional. They treated us with extreme kindness and patience. The rates were very fair and reasonable. From beginning to end, Boyd was amazing. We are very happy to have entrusted them with the care of our loved one.

  • Jeanette Williams

My brother's funeral service was held at Boyd funeral home less than two weeks ago. I spoke wifh the funeral director about by wishes regarding my brother which wasn't addressed. I felt that the Funeral Director and staff got involved with family problems that didn' t concerned them which is unprofessional.

  • Noah Butler

Excellent service. Treats each customer like their a personal family member. Made my grandmother look like she had not been ill for 6 years. Made my father look like he was just asleep after a stroke. Excellence every time. The only funeral home I trust.

  • nikki brown

Horrible experience with owner. Doesn't return phone calls and charges a fee so that she can get her money from insurance immediately. Markup on caskets are riduculous!

  • Rachel O'Connor

Great experience with Linear! She was so sweet and kind. She was also very helpful in what we would need in the future. I would highly recommend her and her business.
