Services
Smith & Gaston maintains a traditional service focus rather than emphasizing cremation-only or direct disposition models. Their military services capability suggests established relationships with veterans' organizations and understanding of VA benefit navigation.
Smith & Gaston Funeral Services has operated from its 102 6th Avenue Southwest location in Birmingham since 1923, making it one of Alabama's longest-serving funeral homes. The business has remained under family leadership across generations, with Paul G. Gardner currently serving as President and his son Eric A. Gardner as Vice President—both licensed funeral directors and embalmers.
The funeral home emphasizes personalized assistance, recognizing that each family has unique needs during difficult times. Their service model focuses on creating meaningful ceremonies that honor individual lives rather than offering standardized packages.
