Strong Funeral Home

Hornbeak Funeral Chapel is a family-owned business located in the unique twin cities of Fulton, Kentucky, and South Fulton, Tennessee. We have been dedicated to providing the very best services to the families we serve for over 100 years. Our commitment to our chosen profession has remained steadfast, even as much has changed over the years.

Our family has been serving your family since 1873, with only five owners throughout our history. The business began as Joe Wade's funeral and furniture business, located in the area of the old Browder Mill's scales. After several moves and changes in ownership, Hornbeak Funeral Chapel moved to its current location at 302 Carr Street in 1934.

Our staff members are caring and experienced professionals who understand that each family is unique and has personal requests and traditions. These requests and traditions are of utmost importance to our staff of licensed funeral directors. Our team includes Kent Hutchins, Lisa Hutchins, Mike Lynch, Garrett Hutchins, Deborah Liliker, Valerie Cathey Bynum, Jordan Barnes, Eddie Crittendon, Chris Puckett, Cindy Tolley, Willie Alford, and Jean Weatherly.
