Up-front pricing, no hidden fees, and, while they offer a wide selection of services, they do not try to up-sell you. They give you all the information, let you make your choices, and carry out your wishes at the price they quoted right at the beginning. They are kind, and conscientious. They will work to accommodate your requests for your loved one. And they will follow through, every step of the process, to ensure that you are satisfied. I recommend their services wholeheartedly to anyone.

This is a local attraction that can easily be missed. It is located right off of a highway entrance…read moreramp and on the Historic Slave Trail. The grounds are well maintained and kept. It is opposite of the side that the Lumpkin Slave Jail is located. You can take an underpass to walk freely between the two sites. This was the first designated burial spot for the city's enslaved and free residents of African ancestry, dating back to as late as 1799. This one and a half acres was considered poor quality and had no other use but the cemetery. It was also the site of public hangings. Other names the site has been known as Potter's Field, were Burying-ground for Coloured persons, Grave Yard for Free People of Color" and Grave Yard for For Slaves You will find a memorial obelisk here with a plaque dedicating the cemetery. Their is also a spot with a couple of information placards that look likes a spot that people hold rituals and leave sacrifices/personal effects. The vast majority of the grounds is low cut green space. Additionally, there is a vacant and decrepit building there. I do not know what it was prior, but it looks historical. This is a nice place to visit. I would not consider it a long stop, so I would probably couple it with a visit to the old Lumpkin Slave Jail and other nearby attractions to maximize your time.

I would NEVER do business with Chile's funeral home and I don't recommend anyone else to neither…read more This was MY first time ever having to bury anyone. I did advise O P Chiles of this which he never acknowledged and I should've ended things there. He proceeded to only ask about the funding and kept pushing the payment due date ahead. In the contract it stated funds were due within 48 hours of service and when I asked him about this, he pushed the date back and stated "Just in case you want to make any changes." I said ok, so then once he printed out the payment contract, he pushed it up another day, so now he would've been getting paid almost a week before the services. He was very insensitive when I called to advise him we were having financial difficulties and stated to me "Didn't you think about that before you met with me yesterday?."Our circumstances changed and he was very rude about it. He also stated to me verbatim "If you don't want to work with me, you don't have to. He is such a nasty person for no reason. He lead me to believe my loved one's body was in his possession, which I didn't know a release form had to be signed, because as I stated, I was new to this and he didn't explain anything and was just worried about the money. I lost my only sibling and I initially went here for them to take care of my loved one, but I'm glad things went the way they did and we went with another funeral home.
