I just wanted to say thank you to Travis and Malachi for making the experience of planning my grandmother’s funeral as easy and gentle as possible. They were very thorough and kind through the whole process, and when I had questions they were quick to respond. The visitation and the service were both beautiful and tastefully done. And thank you to Angela who greeted us and our guests at the visitation. She was so kind and compassionate. Nobody wants to have to recommend a funeral home, but I will be highly recommending Davis Watkins. Thank you all.

I am thankful to God for the staff and services provided by the Davis-Watkins team. They’re genuine concern and assistance in the planning of my mother-n-love’s transition from Cleveland, Ohio to her internment were unmatched. Joel, Casey, Ms. Hilda, and Chris, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking care of my family upon arrival to DeFuniak Springs until departure. May God continue to bless you and keep you is my prayer. Sherjewel Clark

I would like to express our appreciation to everyone at Davis-Watkins in regard to my mother’s funeral services. The whole staff was kind, considerate, and very caring during the whole process. Malachi and David were both very helpful and patient through everything. Even afterwards, your staff has continued to be very thoughtful. Thank you so much for your kindness and compassion you showed to my mom and our family. May you continue to be a blessing to many more. Family of Sharon Brock.

Dear Travis,

We would like to personally thank you again for all the special arrangements you made for our Mom’s funeral, especially your patience in dealing with us. It is too bad you don’t have a superior in the business we could pass this to!

We knew from our first meeting, you had an eye for details and would carry out our wishes. You took extra time to have the Doll House sign framed. This was above our expectations. You expanded her picture and had it framed. It looked just like our Mom. Mom’s hair and make-up looked like she had done it herself. She was beautiful. The service program was such a testimony to Mom. She was a very special woman and we love her so. Having Joel Davis officiate at the service was greatly appreciated and well done. The chapel was decorate and arranged beautifully. Bringing Mom home one more time was probably an unusual request, one you did not question, but simply honored. The burial was performed with much respect and dignity. You made a difficult time easier because we knew our Mom/Mother would be honored the way we wanted.

We thank yo so much and will not hesitate to recommend you to others. My mother would say to you, “Love, Love, Love, and Good, Good Kisses”.

Our Sincere Thanks,

Rusty & Suzanne Weenink

Dear Mr. Davis,

A simple “Thank You” just does not seem sufficient in describing the dedicated, personal attention which you and Mrs. Hilda Davis extended to me. The professionalism with which you handled every, and I do mean EVERY, detail with the passing of my husband certainly demonstrated your compassion and dedication for those of us “left behind”. All of you extended yourself well-beyond what would be expected and required of one in your chosen profession. You give so much n exchange for so little.

The services which you provide go unmatched by others. Your personalized, one-on-one attention to me and my family was so heartfelt in that you always found the time during your busy day to offer comfort in words, wisdom and sincere compassion (even after all the arrangements were finalized on paper). You have definitely found your calling and niche in life.

I had previously heard, through friends and family, the wide monetary range of what I might expect to pay for cremation services. During my time of morning and need, I was quite astonished by what you and Davis Watkins Funeral Home had to offer and provide for the least amount of money. Due to limited finances, I had expected to make use of the least expensive services. However you provided so much more in personal and product services for the least monetary compensation, that I was able to celebrate my husbands everlasting life in a manner in which he so deserved to be remembered.

In conclusion, I also wish to express my appreciation to Travis Watkins, your partner in Davis Watkins Funeral Home. His presence, with you, at the memorial service to commemorate the celebration of “Buck’s” life was very meaningful in that the service you provided did not end with a signature and eventual check as found only in a family owned and operated funeral home.

Joel Davis, Hilda Davis and the staff of Davis Watkins Funeral Home, are GOD’S gift to those of us in our time of need. May HE continue to bless you as you so generously give of yourself, your time and your service.

Very sincerely yours, Rita C. Swogger
