Trust Family Owned and Operated
Thomas C. Strickland and Sons Funeral Homes

Business Profile

Funerals are for the living. It is through funeral arrangements and services that the emotional needs of the living are met by acknowledging the life and accomplishments of the deceased and allowing grief to be shared by family and friends.

It is important to choose a funeral director who will respect your personal and religious preferences as well as providing advice and counseling.

Despite misleading advertising, many of the funeral homes in this area are not owned and operated by people from this area. However, families would be wise to question who owns the facility and who will be handling their services.

Family owned and operated, Thomas C. Strickland and Sons Funeral Home in Springfield has been serving Effingham, Chatham and surrounding counties since 1971. Owners Thomas C. Strickland, Jr., his wife Terri, and their family are trusted for their history of helping families through difficult times. Tommy is a licensed funeral director and embalmer, and Terri is a licensed funeral director. Sons Trey and Ryan are both licensed funeral directors and embalmers and have worked at the funeral home since their early teens. Dwayne A. Duff, a licensed funeral director and embalmer, has worked with Tommy at the funeral home since 1980.

"Having been a family owned and operated funeral home for almost three decades, we have learned that families are best served when they are able to make informed decisions," said Tommy. The Strickland family offers information on all services, including prearranging funeral services, funeral services for every budget, arrangements for funerals in other cities, assistance with insurance and V.A. benefits, cremation, and custom designed head stones and monuments. The Strickland's also operate a perpetual care cemetery, Effingham Memorial Gardens.

Strickland's Funeral Home can provide information, counseling, and service. You will be assisted by the same staff of family members from the first call through funeral services and even in aftercare.
