Sparkman/Hillcrest Funeral Home

Story

Sparkman/Hillcrest is a full-service funeral home, with a beautifully landscaped and maintained 88 acre Hillcrest Memorial Park. The park features private burial estates around the lake, a stately mausoleum and two garden mausoleums equipped with interior and exterior wall crypts and two chapels.

The spacious and gracious funeral home is designed for the comfort and convenience of the families in need. There are handsomely appointed staterooms, parlor walls of Venetian marble, visitation rooms with lush mohair furniture, exquisite marble floors and the L. N. “Bill” Sparkman Jr. Family Lounge for the perfect intimate gathering of family and friends. Every effort has been made in providing comfort and care to all.

Sparkman/Hillcrest Funeral Home and Hillcrest Mausoleum & Memorial Park radiate balance and excellent taste. Acres of green rolling berms encircle the grounds painted with the palettes of the seasons. Like a silken Persian carpet, summer is radiant with the splendid crepe myrtle reds, pinks and lavenders, and the beds of annual blues, purples, yellows and corals. Fall flourishes with an explosion of scarlet, mahogany and russet against a background of brown and taupe. Winter possesses its own subtle palette of live oak sage, gray and taupe. Spring reinvigorates the landscape with early redbuds followed by blossoming Bradford pears and dogwoods. On the south end of the property, the “Little Mermaid” lake shimmers like a cabochon sapphire reflecting this march of the seasons.

For 116, years the Sparkman family and Sparkman Hillcrest Funeral Home and Hillcrest Mausoleum & Memorial Park, have provided compassion, comfort and professionalism, as well as pride of service for families of all faiths who are wishing to honor their deceased with a celebration of life.
