On Dec 20th 2024 my husband passed away. Immediately, Pierce Funeral Home began the task of helping us with Ricks funeral. He was to be cremated. On Dec 28th Piece Funeral Home began to plan with the help of myself, the Police Dept and our church Kernersville Wesleyan one of the most elegant and beautiful funerals I have ever seen. I have received the same comments from many people that were present. I want to say thank you to each individuals involved. Rick would have been so proud.

Kirk and all the staff at Pierce-Jefferson were so professional and caring during the process for our mother’s funeral. The staff made sure they did everything we requested. They continue to check on us and provide us with resources to assist with grief support. We appreciate all their compassion and guidance during this difficult time.

This place was amazing. Very nice and friendly staff. Everytime I went by or called the whole staff was very helpful and answered all my concerns. Very organized and service was far and beyond. I want to thank Kirk and all the staff for making everything smooth and easy for me and the family. If the reader of this is wondering if this is the place, I would tell you most definitely yes. I really dont think you will be disappointed.
