Services
The funeral home operates from a single location at 1210 Ballentine Blvd in Norfolk, serving as the centralized site for all viewings and services. The facility is noted as handicapped accessible. No specific capacity figures, room counts, or renovation dates are provided in available materials.
Community Funeral Home structures its service model around advance planning capabilities and flexible service configurations. The pre-planning program allows families to make arrangements during non-emotional periods, with optional funding mechanisms to secure current pricing.
Community Funeral Home opened its doors in April 1970, founded by Eross Winston and the late Emogene B. Bennett. The business remains under original ownership with Winston serving as President and James E. Arrington, Sr. assuming General Manager duties in March 2017. The single-location operation at 1210 Ballentine Blvd serves as the central hub for all viewings and services.
The funeral home emphasizes what it terms "Dignity, Grace & Aged Experience" — a philosophy backed by 89 years of combined staff experience. Staff availability is positioned as a key operational feature: the funeral home maintains 24/7 service availability for families in immediate need. The business explicitly welcomes families regardless of race or religion, a commitment stated since its founding year.
