why choose us
Where Compassion Meets Service
For over six decades, Bailey Funeral Home has been more than a place of service. We’ve been neighbors, friends, and family. Serving Elkhorn City and the surrounding area since 1968, it has been our honor to walk alongside generations of local families during life’s most difficult moments.
We understand that inviting us into such a personal time is an act of trust. That trust is something we cherish and work to earn every day through compassionate care, honest guidance, and a commitment to doing things the right way. Being family-owned means we serve personally, not from a distance, caring for each family as we would our own.
Our responsibility goes beyond planning services. It’s about creating a safe, welcoming space for every family who walks through our doors, supporting them through loss, and offering guidance long after the service has ended. That belief inspired Bailey’s Bridges, our free grief support group, led by Dr. Tiffany Bailey-Slone, PhD, a licensed clinical psychologist. It exists so no one in our community has to navigate grief alone.
Elkhorn City is more than where we work. It’s home. Many of the families we serve today are families we have known for generations. We’ve watched children grow, traditions continue, and families expand. Being part of those lives is a privilege we honor every day.
At Bailey Funeral Home, we are here for you with compassion, integrity, and care, not just in times of loss, but whenever you need guidance, a listening ear, or support.
Online Memorial
We can create a customized, online memorial for you to share with family and friends. The memorial includes the obituary and any photographs you wish to provide. It will serve as a place for visitors to post condolences, share memories, upload photos, and light candles in honor of your loved one.
Tribute Video
Tribute videos have become a heartfelt addition to the services offered by funeral homes. They beautifully blend cherished photos, video clips, and meaningful music into a touching montage that honors the life and cherished memories of a loved one. These videos offer a sense of closure and comfort during a difficult time, creating a lasting keepsake for grieving families and friends to share their grief and pay tribute. We excel in crafting these personal tributes, ensuring they capture the unique essence of the departed, providing a meaningful and comforting way to remember their life.
Ordering Flowers
We make it easy for friends and family to send flowers to your home or service to honor your loved one. We have partnered with local florists to offer the convenience of ordering directly from the obituary page of our website. You can also use this to select the flowers you would like at the service.
Sharing Service Details
We reduce the stress of contacting those who need the details of the service for your loved one. Through the online memorial on our website, we will post the dates and times of the service. You can then either share the memorial on your social media or copy the details from the site into an email or text.
