Ripley Funeral Home

At Ripley Funeral and Cremation Services, we have a long history of providing compassionate and personalized service to families in Tippah and Benton counties and surrounding areas. With over 90 years of experience, we have established a reputation for being family-owned and operated, with a commitment to caring for people like family.

Our Story

Ripley Funeral and Cremation Services began in 1925 as The R.L. Nance & Co. Hardware and Undertaking Company, filling an unmet need in Tippah County and surrounding areas by providing a hearse and stocking caskets in their hardware company located on the court square in downtown Ripley. In 1972, a group of local Tippah County residents incorporated Ripley Funeral and Cremation Services, designing a spacious funeral home and funeral chapel with dedicated and caring people to serve our area for future generations. We celebrated our 90th anniversary in 2015, marking another milestone in our journey.

Our Mission

At Ripley Funeral and Cremation Services, we believe that a well-planned funeral service warms the soul and illuminates the memory. We assist each family in creating a special ceremony that reflects the life of their loved one, whether it's by using special music, creating a video to be played during the ceremony, or having the funeral service at your church or at our Ripley Funeral and Cremation Services Heritage Chapel. Our goal is to see that you are 100% satisfied!
