A simple, private option handled with clear communication and respectful care at every step, leaving families free to plan a remembrance whenever the time feels right.

Combine cremation with a memorial service, a celebration of life, or a traditional funeral beforehand, creating a gathering that reflects your loved one's character and beliefs.
Cremation Pre-Planning
Recording your cremation preferences in advance reduces future uncertainty for loved ones and lets you make informed decisions without the pressure of an immediate loss.
Compassionate Support Auburn Families Can Rely On
Jeffcoat Funeral Home has been a cornerstone of compassionate care for Tallassee and the surrounding communities since 1969, when Joe Jeffcoat purchased what was then Mann Funeral Home. That legacy continues today under Jo Ann Jeffcoat, a Tallassee native who has served local families for more than 40 years. We are locally owned and operated, which means the people who care for your family are your neighbors, not a corporation.
Our staff coordinates every aspect of the arrangements, including transportation, necessary documentation, and obituary assistance, and we offer a carefully selected collection of urns and memorial keepsakes so families can preserve cherished memories. Our team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
We take the time to explain every option clearly and honestly, so your family can make decisions with confidence and never under pressure.
About Auburn, Alabama
Auburn is a lively university city in Lee County, in the eastern part of Alabama, long known as the Loveliest Village on the Plains. Its heart is Auburn University, chartered in 1856, whose red-brick Samford Hall and clock tower are the city's signature landmark; at noon, the tower chimes the War Eagle fight song. A short walk away, Toomer's Corner, at the intersection of College Street and Magnolia Avenue, marks the edge of campus and the start of downtown, where generations of fans have gathered at the historic oak trees and at Toomer's Drugs, a fixture since 1896.
Just beyond campus, Jordan-Hare Stadium draws tens of thousands on football Saturdays, while quieter corners of the city include the Davis Arboretum, the Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art, and Chewacla State Park on Auburn's southern edge. Alabama Highway 14 runs west out of the city toward Notasulga and Tallassee, and Interstate 85 links Auburn to Montgomery and the wider region. Our funeral home at 255 Friendship Road in Tallassee is about 28 miles northwest, a drive of roughly 40 minutes.
Getting Here from Auburn
Our funeral home is about 28 miles northwest of Auburn at 255 Friendship Road in Tallassee, roughly a 40-minute drive. Most families follow Alabama Highway 14 west out of Auburn, through Notasulga and the Reeltown countryside, until the highway becomes Central Boulevard in Tallassee, the historic mill town known as the Treasure on the Tallapoosa. From there, Friendship Road is a short turn off the main route, and parking is available on site. Interstate 85 west toward the Tallassee exits is an easy alternative.
If the drive is a hardship for your family, let us know when you call, and we will make the arrangements as convenient as possible.
