Bolivar | Shackelford Funeral Directors | Bolivar, TN

R. P. and Kathryne Hall Shackelford left their home in Savannah in 1932, moving to Bolivar to open the second Shackelford funeral home, a monumental task since there were six other funeral establishments in the community. Two years later, the business moved from the south side of the square to the east side where it remained until 1964 when the current facility was opened. R. P.’s sudden death in 1977 led his son Don to assume the role of manager, one he occupied until his death in 2000. Today the business offers a full range of funeral and cremation options under the oversight of Don’s son Jeff.
