Welcome to Our Website

Over the years Aderhold Funeral Home has built a reputation of commitment to each and every family we serve. At a time which is most difficult for each family, we strive to provide the absolute highest level of care.

Our philosophy can simply be described by our slogan, "Thoughtful Service... A Payne Family Tradition." The Payne family has been serving the West area for over 43 years. We feel as though serving bereaved families is much more than a service, it is a ministry. That is why each and every member of our staff is committed to providing the highest standards in quality, caring and thoughtful service to every family that we serve, whether it is before or after death occurs.

Because Aderhold Funeral Home is family owned and operated, all decisions are made at the local level. Our family will help your family celebrate the life of your loved one. We will help you plan a celebration of your loved one that reflects their own wishes.

Our new website is designed to help you learn more about us. In this site you will find information about our staff, about pre-planning a funeral service and about our grief support program. You will be able to view any of our merchandise selections, and be able to watch Video Tributes (with high-speed connection). You will also be able to look up information about local churches, cemeteries, grief support groups and charitable organizations. We hope that you will also take the time to watch our video found in the Tour Our Facility section (or you can click here) where you can meet our staff and view our new home.

Additionally, on January 31, 2008 Aderhold Funeral Home announced the purchase of Kotch Funeral Home.  If you currently have a pre-need contract with Kotch Funeral Home, please be assured that each of those policies have been transferred to Aderhold Funeral Home.  Every attempt has also been made to note each of your specific wishes regarding your pre-arrangements, but should you have any questions or concerns, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss these with you.

Please give us a call at (254) 826-5321 or you may send us an e-mail at rdpayne@aderholdfuneralhome.com to see how we can be of service to you or your family.

We encourage you to send any comments, questions or suggestions concerning our website to lwpayne@aderholdfuneralhome.com.
