Services
Preston Charles emphasizes flexibility in service planning, particularly for cremation families who may hold memorial services at a later date. Their staff handles paperwork coordination with Social Security, Veterans Administration, and insurance providers.
Preston Charles Funeral Home operates two facilities serving the Greater Cincinnati area: PCFH-Lockland at 400 North Wayne Avenue and PCFH-Middletown at 918 South Main Street. Founded in 2017, the funeral home emphasizes creating "meaningful, celebratory and attainable" final arrangements. The staff positions themselves as available 24 hours a day, 7 days week for immediate assistance.
The funeral home's philosophy centers on the belief that "each life is truly unique" and that honoring and preserving the story of one's life represents their greatest responsibility. This approach manifests in their branding around "Celebrations of Life" rather than traditional funeral terminology. A January 2026 testimonial from Norma Hubbard's family specifically praised Mr. Preston's personal involvement, noting he "added a personal touch and care when we forgot something or were just out of it from the shock." The same family highlighted professional service from the limo driver through burial, describing staff as "attentive and so kind."
The business maintains active social media presence through Facebook, where they share video content and community engagement. Their website features extensive educational resources covering funeral etiquette, grief support, and veterans services.
