Services & pricing
We surveyed funeral homes in the Columbia and West Columbia area and found that families who choose Cornerstone save thousands of dollars.
To complete the pricing survey, we requested a General Price List from each establishment and compared “apples to apples.” We focused on the cost of a funeral service, including transportation of the deceased into the funeral home's care, embalming and other preparation of the deceased, a service fee of the funeral director and staff, a viewing, a funeral ceremony, and the use of a hearse. We did not include pricing for a casket, burial vault, memorial package, or limousine.
While other providers may change their prices without notice and offer package discounts or discounts, we commit to ensuring that our pricing is always affordable, always accurate, and always open and transparent.
