About George A. Smith & Sons Funeral Home
George A. Smith & Sons Funeral Home is a well-established Jackson-area funeral home operating under the George A. Smith & Sons name, though families should be aware it is owned by Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral home chain in the country, which can mean more standardized pricing structures and corporate oversight rather than independent, locally-rooted ownership. The funeral home offers full-service arrangements including traditional burial and memorial services, and the staff appears experienced in guiding families through the planning process. Pricing information was not available for this summary, so families are encouraged to request an itemized General Price List directly from the funeral home and compare it with other local providers before making a decision. On Google, the funeral home holds a 4.9-star rating across 80 reviews, with customers consistently praising the warmth, professionalism, and attentiveness of the staff — a staff member named DJ is mentioned by name in multiple reviews as particularly compassionate and detail-oriented — and no notable complaint patterns appear in the available reviews.

a month agoWe recently utilized Smith & Sons for my mother’s funeral and it was during an ice and snow storm. Even though the ice necessitated putting the funeral off for a week because the ground was too hard to dig, everything went really well and we were so blessed by the service. DJ was the best!
