What Families are Saying

August 2, 2025

We lost our dear mother in early October. We called Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow to help us through this difficult time. They were spot on every step of the way - they took care of mom like she was part of their family and they handled the entire process, making it easy for us in a difficult time. They answered all of our questions from the first consultation at their funeral home. In closing, if I were to describe our experience with Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow it would be they treated our family with true and sincere compassion, including following up to see if we were alright or needed anything.

Everyone at Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow were caring. They took excellent care of my mother. From the beginning all the way to the graveside. They provided excellent transportation for my family and myself to the cemetery. I felt that everyone treated us with the upmost respect and care. I couldn't have gotten through everything without them. Thank you all very much.

Absolutely amazing people at Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow. They made everything beautiful and went above and beyond ALL of my expectations. Not to mention the whole process was so smooth and completely seamless. I could not have asked for anything to have been done any different. Everything was perfect, including my Lovely Mom. Thank you to everyone at Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow, y'all are amazing at what you do. If I could leave you guys a 20 star review I definitely would.

My Dad recently went to be with Jesus in August, 2023. After a most unpleasant, deficient funeral home experience elsewhere in Gainesville after my mom passed away in 2018, it was critical that I find another option for my dad. He had even said to me, “Please don’t let my funeral be like that.” Rhonda was my first contact with Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow in Gainesville, and she was friendly, understanding, and kind. She introduced me to Russell Carney, our funeral director who was kind, patient, accommodating, and professional. After Russel gathered the info he needed, he handled every detail with precision and professionalism. I cannot say enough about the relief I experienced. My dad’s funeral service was as hoped and planned and we were all very pleased. I know my dad would have been pleased as well, that it was organized, planned, and executed in a compassionate, humane manner. Russell, Jordan, Tommy, and Ryan managed the funeral service, the graveside service, and the lowering of the casket into the grave. Their professional, kind, and quiet mannerisms did not go unnoticed as they did not miss any detail to make the experience as smooth and stress free as possible.

The care and handling of my husband was amazing. He was treated with the upmost dignity. On the worse day of my life, the Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow’s team was compassionate, caring, helpful and gave me all the time I needed to say goodbye to the love of my life. During the “after” process, Russell walked me through evert step. If I needed a minute or two he graciously stepped aside. The entire staff was always available to answer any questions I might have. A wonderful group of folks who truly care about their clients and the departed family members in their care. Thank you - your staff made everything so much simpler.

Russell and Rhonda were very helpful, patient, and friendly just like they were part of our family during a difficult time for me. They did an excellent job with everything for my dad, Larry Emert. It was my first time doing this, and I appreciate their help and kindness.

I don't know how to explain the absolute best care I have received at Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow. Rhonda and Russell at the Gainesville home are a Godsend, both have went above and beyond to ensure great service for us in 2006, 2017, and 2 passings in 2022. They have helped us arrange traditional funerals and creations with Memorial Services. Also, a special thank you to Stuart, Don R, Chris, and Mr. Carney. They are such caring professionals as well. Thank you so much, Jan Wall

The level of a caring staff is awesome.Rhonda ,Russell and Chris have been so heartfelt and comfort for me thru 4 services over the years but so compassionate as 2 were within 2 mths of each other. I can not express my sincere gratitude for their help and Turrentine-Jackson-Morrows Gainesville and Whitesboro are 5 star plus! I would recommend either for a very comforting and special service they provided. Thank you all and God bless you and your families. Respectfully, Jan Wall

They are so very kind and gently help you through all the steps needed to care for not only your loved one but for you as well.
