I give Aikens Funeral Home 10 🌟 stars! They are very professional and were passionate to our family needs! Step by step. More importantly, they did not "rush" the service!!! I will continue to recommend them to family and friends. Thanks to the staff for being so caring to your customers needs during times like these.

At a time when I was at my lowest I was able to rely on the team from Aikens. From our first arrangement meeting to walking out of their doors on our service day, they were top notch professionals from the receptionist to the owner herself. The amenities they offered for our service as well as the clergy and musicians was exemplary. This is a first class business , I’m glad I chose Aiken funeral home.

Valzina Lewis

The entire Aikens Funeral staff was a blessing to my family. We never had to worry about funeral arrangements for our brother. The funeral home in Virginia coordinated with Aikens Funeral Home so my brother body could be flown to Tampa with no problems. Aikens did everything we asked of them with no problems. We admire how professional the Aikens staff handled everything. They treated us like family. I would recommend Aikens Funeral home to anyone that has loss a love one.

This was the hardest time in my life. Mrs. Eugenia was so amazing throughout this whole process. She was very patient with me. She was very knowledgeable, And willing to answer any questions I had. Sometimes it was the same question more than once, I just couldn’t understand, but she never got aggravated or upset. She also had a colleague, Miss Christina, who also really helped out a lot. Though this was a difficult time and everyone has to go through it, I would recommend you use Aiken funeral home. Everything was so beautiful everything went so smoothly. I really appreciate Eugenia and Christina at Aiken funeral home.

Their kindness, patience, compassion, and attention to every detail meant more to us than words can express. During such a painful time, they made us feel supported, cared for, and never alone.

Jevebia Bell

We would like to take this opportunity to sincerely express our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to Aikens Funeral Home for the incredible compassion, professionalism, and care shown to our family during two of the most painful and emotional times in our lives. We entrusted Aikens Funeral Home with the services for our beloved grandmother, Mrs. Mary Gatlin, and most recently our precious Baby Jadell, and both experiences confirmed exactly why this funeral home is truly one of a kind. From the very beginning, the staff treated our family with dignity, patience, understanding, and genuine compassion. During moments when our hearts were heavy and words were difficult to find, they stepped in and guided us with grace and kindness. Losing a loved one is never easy, especially the heartbreaking loss of a child, but the love and support shown by the Aikens team brought our family comfort during unimaginable pain. The services for Baby Jadell were beyond beautiful. Every detail was handled with such care, excellence, and professionalism. The setup was breathtaking, peaceful, and filled with so much love that it touched everyone in attendance. In the middle of our grief, Aikens Funeral Home created an atmosphere that honored Baby Jadell’s life so beautifully and gave our family memories we will hold close forever. We truly cannot imagine another funeral home providing the level of service, compassion, and attention to detail that was given to us. We would especially like to thank Mrs. Aikens, Tom, Eugenia, and Andrew for going above and beyond for our family. Your kindness, patience, comforting words, professionalism, and dedication did not go unnoticed. Each of you carried yourselves with excellence while making our family feel supported every step of the way. The genuine care you showed made a tremendous difference during one of the darkest periods of our lives. Because of the experiences we have had with your funeral home, our family has fully determined that Aikens Funeral Home is, and always will be, our family funeral home. That title is not given lightly. It comes from trust, consistency, compassion, and the unforgettable way you cared for our loved ones and our family. Thank you again for everything you have done and continue to do for families in the community. Your work is more than a service. It is a ministry of compassion, healing, dignity, and love. May God continue to bless each of you abundantly for the comfort and peace you bring to grieving families every single day. Sincerely, Ms. Bell

Awilda Velez

Something in my heart led me to Aiken Funeral Home. I wanted to give my son the most beautiful and respectful service which was a celebration of his life. From the first point of contact, the Aiken family and staff treated me and my family with the utmost dignity and respect. When I first viewed my son before the service, I was so pleased with the way he looked. He looked like he was peacefully asleep. I could not have been more pleased. Everyone who attended the service, said it was a lovely service. Thank you again to the Aiken Family and Staff for making this experience one I sincerely appreciate. Losing my son, is the worst thing any parent can experience. However, you took my son under your care and presented him to me and his family in a very loving and caring manner. God Bless Respectfully, Awilda Velez

Marilyn Washington

The entire staff have shown compassion, comfort, care and concern for myself and my family throughout the planning, viewing, burial and afterwards. They call, text and e-mail to check on us and to let us know they are available, if needed. This is what a family needs after everything is done and the owner and staff at Aikens do just that. I was surprised but oh so grateful. Thanks Aikens owner and staff for your outpouring sincere concern for the Washington family. We appreciate ya'll. May God continue to shower you all with blessings upon blessings.

Nicole Marshall-golden

I want to thank Aikens Funeral Home during a very difficult time. The entire team was compassionate, professional, and truly attentive to every detail. Eugenia was outstanding. She guided us through the process with care, patience, and genuine kindness. Her support made a lasting impact on our family, and we felt reassured every step of the way. I also want to recognize the Director of Operations, whose dedication to families is evident in everything she does. She treats each family with the same love, respect, and dignity as if they were her own, and that level of care does not go unnoticed. I am deeply grateful for the exceptional service and would highly recommend Aikens Funeral Home to anyone in need.

Rodnesia Berry

Althea provided exceptional care and support to my grandmother during my uncle’s service. From before the service started, throughout, and even afterward, she was attentive, compassionate, and incredibly kind. During such a difficult time, she went above and beyond to make sure my grandmother felt comfortable and supported. Her patience, professionalism, and genuine warmth truly made a difference for our family. I would also like to thank Joe for being so accommodating throughout the planning process. He was understanding and flexible with my grandmother’s changes, which meant so much during an already emotional time. We are truly grateful for both of them and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a team that genuinely cares.

Shaye Harrison

I’ve encountered a few cold & desensitized funeral personnel while trying to figure out what’s the most affordable for my family. I worked with Eugenia Jackson at Aikens and she showed me her heart and her customer service. She listened without interrupting and just allowed me to have a few moments grieving during this process. She gave me grace in a world of heartless people. Miss Jackson, thank you for being the best part of burying our loved one. Thank you for gently guiding me thru this process! Many praises to you, Aikens!

Leslie Roberts

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Aikens Funeral Home for their exceptional service and care during one of the most difficult times in my life. In November 2025, they handled the cremation arrangements for my mother, Dr. Arlessa Kubon, and I cannot speak highly enough of the compassion and professionalism they demonstrated throughout the entire process. From the very beginning, the staff treated my sister and me with patience, kindness, and genuine empathy. They took the time to answer every question we had, no matter how small, and provided thoughtful, professional guidance as we navigated the homegoing of our mother. Their support helped ease the burden during an incredibly emotional time. What truly stood out was their consistent communication and care. They checked in on us regularly, ensuring that we felt supported and informed every step of the way. In particular, LaCheryl Aikens-Guzman provided outstanding personal attention, going above and beyond to make sure our needs were met with compassion and professionalism. Their attention to detail and commitment to honoring our mother’s memory gave us comfort and peace of mind. Aikens Funeral Home provides an invaluable service to the Tampa, Florida community. Their dedication to excellence, combined with their heartfelt compassion, makes them a trusted choice for families in need. I highly recommend Aikens Funeral Home to anyone seeking professional, respectful, and caring funeral services. Sincerely, Leslie Roberts II Charlottesville,VA

Jerome C Thompson

Aiken’s funeral home did an excellent job handling the service for my mother’s home going ceremony. All of the staff were amazing with their acts of kindness and patience. They made everything so special and beautiful at the funeral home and the church as well. The limousines were luxurious, prompt and very clean inside and outside.

Carol Ader

I wanted to sincerely thank the owner and the staff for their kindness and compassion for funeral services for my mother. My brother and I thought my mother had life insurance. I discovered my mother's policy had expired and didn't have enough to cover the cost of the funeral services. Aikens allowed for us to have my mother's services on a Saturday and pay them the following week. They are very professional and compassionate people.

taylor adams

I want to personally thank Aikens Funeral Home, especially Ms. Sharon Thompson and Mr. Andrew Kinsey for the care and support they provided during my grandmother's funeral. This was the first time my family and I had to plan a funeral, and we truly didn't know where to start. They listened closely and gently guided us through each step. Their presence and professionalism made a very difficult process so much easier than I ever expected. I am deeply grateful for the comfort they gave our family and the way they helped us honor my grandmother's memory. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Hagins

Our family had to transfer our loved one from another state back to Aikens in Florida. Joseph Evans was our assigned director and every detail was handled with professionalism and thoughtfulness. He guided us through each step with patience and clarity, making a difficult time feel a little lighter and a lot more supported. The professionalism of the Aikens team allowed us to focus on celebrating my grandmother’s life rather than worrying about logistics. Joseph communicated promptly and clearly with me every step of the way, he was organized and just simplified every part of the difficult process of burying a loved one for our family. The preparation and presentation of our loved one was elegant and everything started and ended on time. If you are looking for a funeral home that leads with compassion, professionalism, and respect, we cannot recommend them highly enough. They helped us to give my grandmother a beautiful, meaningful farewell.

Aikens Funeral Home in Tampa went above and beyond during one of the hardest moments of my life. After my mother passed away, they treated her with the utmost dignity, respect, and care, and supported our family every step of the way. I want to give special recognition to Eugenia Jackson, who helped embalm my mom and handled all of the complicated paperwork and logistics needed to transport her to Lebanon for a proper burial. This process could have been overwhelming, but Eugenia was professional, and incredibly thorough. She made sure everything—from the documentation to the airline ticket—was completed correctly and on time, giving us peace of mind during an incredibly painful period. The entire staff showed genuine care, patience, and understanding. I am deeply grateful for their support and kindness, and I highly recommend Aikens Funeral Home to anyone in need of compassionate and trustworthy service. Thank you for taking such good care of my mom and our family when we needed it most.

Angelipa Stallworth

Aikens Funeral Home staff are top tier with professionalism, care and providing attentive service. I am not from the Tampa Bay area, and Aikens was referred to me, a family owned business that truly cared for people. My initial contact confirmed this was who I needed to handle my brothers arrangements. Ms. Bryt was amazing from the beginning to the end. The team assigned to our family on the day of the service supported me and the family the entire time. We were never treated just as customers but as a part of a family. The care shown during this difficult time and after goes beyond anything I could hope for. The Aftercare team has been phenomenal with checking to see if I am in need of anything from Aikens or any other resource. The family of James R. Terrell Jr. thank you and appreciate your dedicated service. I highly recommend Aikens Funeral Home to anyone who is In search of a compassionate caring Funeral home to handle your loved one's arrangements. I would give 10 stars hands down.

Marie Sweet Zeta

Akins Funeral Home was truly amazing during one of the hardest times our family has ever faced. From start to finish, they were professional, reliable, and incredibly supportive. Being a family-owned business, they treated us like more than just clients—they treated us like family. Every interaction made us feel supported and understood, never rushed or treated like just another “customer”. Every detail was handled with care, compassion, and respect, which gave us peace of mind when we needed it most. Their kindness and guidance made an overwhelming experience feel manageable, and we are deeply grateful for the comfort they provided. I would highly recommend Akins Funeral Home to anyone in need of compassionate and dependable service. Akins Funeral Home will forever hold a special place in our hearts. If I could give 10 stars I would!

To the staff of Aikens Funeral Home, the Harris and Boyd families would like to thank you for the top tier service provided to our beloved Xavier Harris. The planning of the arrangements and the care shown in handling Xavier were handled with such care. If we could give you 10 stars, we absolutely would. Many Regards, Reca B.

Kimberly K

Extremely disappointed with the services provided by Aikens Funeral Home. Despite arrangements being made, my great aunt's obituary was never placed in the Florida Sentinel, which caused distress to family members who relied on that notice. Additionally, the family paid $750 for livestreaming, yet the livestream did not begin until halfway through the service, preventing many loved ones from viewing the service in real time. We were also charged $1,200 for an escort service that was short-staffed, resulting in confusion and disorganization. Overall, the experience was unprofessional and poorly coordinated, especially during a time when grieving families deserve care, attention, and accountability.

Jennifer Woodley

The Aikens Funeral Home staff is very professional and caring. They were able to quell my stress and frustration when my family and I faced some issues with another funeral company. Mrs. Eugenia and her staff were able retrieve my mom’s remains and got my mom ready to be transported for the funeral services out of state in a timely manner. I would recommend their business to anyone who needs to make funeral arrangements for their loved ones.

Janette Brooks

I hear so many phenomenal stories about this funeral home but I received news from a relative that the professionalism wasn't so professional the service for the matriarch of my extended family.. we know it's a business, but let's keep in mind losing a loved one is the most difficult time and my cousins didn't feel the love and warmth she deserved while preparing to lay her mom to rest...

Joe and Stephanie were extremely helpful and compassionate during our time of grief. We are extremely grateful to Aikens

We recently had the sad task of handling the funeral for my mother. My family and I were extremely fortunate to have used Aikens to provide the services. They were warm and caring and we were extremely pleased with the services. I would definitely recommend anyone at need to use Aikens.

Jehnae Lester

If it wasn’t for Aikens Funeral Home, I don’t know how my family and I would have made it through such a difficult time. During our time of need, they were always there to answer the phone and offer support. They walked with us through every step after my mother’s passing with care, compassion, and professionalism. I truly appreciate everything they did for our family and would highly recommend Aikens Funeral Home to anyone.
