Bennett Funeral Home emphasizes personalized service delivery, with staff noting that "each family is unique and has personal requests and traditions." The company offers both at-need and pre-need arrangements, with particular emphasis on removing decision-making burdens from families during difficult times.
Bennett Funeral Home traces its origins to 1897, when Alphonso Winston Bennett established Bennett Funeral Home and Livery Service in Richmond. The founder built the business on a foundation of ethical practices that the company maintains has "never wavered" across generations. Bennett insisted on using only the best obtainable products for burial rites, establishing quality standards he demanded exceed those of competitors.
The operation has expanded from its original single location to a four-chapel network spanning the Richmond metropolitan area. Charles D. Morehead serves as President and General Manager, leading a staff described as "local people who care deeply about the community." The business emphasizes personalized attention, with staff striving to provide care, privacy, and respect in creating what they term "lasting tributes" for families.
All four locations are handicapped accessible, and the company maintains active membership in multiple professional and community organizations.
