A tradition of service, continuing today
“Sensitivity, Compassion & Respect” — the promise our family has kept for nearly two hundred years.
In 1830, the Burpee brothers established the tradition of service which continues today as Burpee, Carpenter & Hutchins Funeral Home. Since 1983, Walker Hutchins and staff have been providing Knox County families with quality, compassionate, personalized funeral and cremation services.
Our commitment is to assist families in honoring and remembering their loved ones. In a comfortable, home-like environment, each family receives our utmost attention to detail — and a level of service that many have come to appreciate.
Our staff family stands ready to serve — 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
