Our Founding
In this age of constant corporate funeral home buyouts and takeovers, families are
comforted to know that there is still family owned and operated firms in the Abilene
area. Recently, a number of funeral homes in Abilene were aquired by the largest
funeral corporation in the United States - we are NOT one of them! Abilene Funeral
Home was founded in 1998 and stands apart as an independent and family owned business,
keeping its revenues in an Abilene bank, making for a stronger financial community.
In an effort to bring back hometown personal service to the Abilene area, Jack Fuqua
and Richard Cisneros founded Abilene Funeral Home, giving personal attention and
care to each family they serve. This care is given during the most difficult time
for any family. We distinguish ourselves with the capacity for understanding and
with the sincere desire to serve all the Abilene community, regardless of social
or economic condition. It is our pledge to the Abilene community to offer the most
thoughtful, appropriate and affordable service without compromising the integrity
of the funeral. We offer a tastefully decorated facility with a warm and peaceful
atmosphere and a professionally trained and experienced staff who understands the
many circumstances a family faces at the loss of a loved one.
