Imagine a setting so comfortable it could put you at ease even during a difficult time. Soft soothing colors, thoughtful design, every detail planned to make you feel at home. You may think that all funeral homes are alike - We would like you to know that they differ. At Gause Funeral Home, we pride ourselves on being family owned, residents of the community, and in business since 1928. We serve families located in Bartow, Mulberry, Bradley, Pierce, Ft. Meade, and all of Central Florida. From the beginning, our commitment to you, your family, and the community has been important to us. We are sensitive to your needs from the first phone call until long after the funeral is over. Your 100% satisfaction is our goal; anything less is not acceptable. At Gause Funeral Home, we can help you plan a service so special that the only thing you leave behind are beautiful memories.
We welcome you to tour our website. Enclosed, you will find all of our prices for your convenience. When selecting a funeral service, we suggest to our families the three most important items to remember: 1. every funeral is a dignified funeral; 2. stay in a price category that you can afford and, most importantly, 3. whoever is paying for the funeral, such as a surviving spouse, needs to maintain their same standard of living or better. When a family trusts us with their most valuable possession, we reassure them that everything will be taken care of with Dignity and Respect. Our policy at Gause Funeral Home is to witness the burial after the family has left the cemetery, and if the family wishes to stay, we will be there with them. If cremation has been selected, we will transport the deceased to the crematory and witness the entire cremation process.
