History & Staff
We have years of experience caring for families, from all walks of life. Each family comes to us because they know we are leaders in our profession, dedicated to excellence in service, and have the highest integrity.
Our History
The year was 2001. Philip Hardy and his wife, Debbie Tripp Hardy purchased Horne Funeral Home from the Horne Family. The Horne's had been in the funeral business since 1946 on College Street in Eastman.
Philip along with Jimmy Hendrix and others operated Hardy Funeral Home until 2003 when Hardy joined forces with Rick Towns of Towns Funeral Home in Alamo, Ga. They joined forces and operated both locations from then til now.
In January of 2009 Hardy-Towns Funeral Home moved to a new Funeral Home on Oak Street in Eastman. This funeral home is second to none, anywhere. We are very proud of our facility and our staff, as we can handle any service, no matter how large or how small it may be.
