Proudly Serving Lynchburg for Over 200 Years

For over two centuries, Diuguid Funeral Services & Crematory has been a steadfast provider of comfort and care to the Lynchburg community. Our tenure as the oldest funeral home in Virginia and the second oldest in the United States is a testament to our enduring commitment. Originating from humble beginnings, our founder Sampson Diuguid, a skilled furniture maker from Appomattox, transformed his craft into a mission of service that has stood the test of time.


Embracing both our rich heritage and the evolving needs of our community, we have recently undergone a full renovation. Our facilities have been meticulously updated to better serve families with modern amenities and comforts. The funeral home, easily accessible and a recognizable fixture in the area, now includes an on-property cafe for the convenience of the families we serve and ample parking to accommodate guests during services and visitations.


While we hold a special place in our hearts for veterans and the unique tributes they deserve, our services encompass a broad spectrum of options for burial and cremation, each tailored to honor the individuality of the lives we celebrate. Today, Diuguid Funeral Services & Crematory continues the legacy of Sampson Diuguid, ensuring that every family receives compassionate care in a setting that reflects our dedication to excellence.

Mr. Bartel and all the staff I dealt with at Diuguid were helpful, empathetic and a joy to work with through what was a painful experience for me … as it is for most people. I can’t thank Chuck and everyone at Diuguid enough.

I called Diuguid when my husband died. Dan answered the phone immediately and took my initial information. He then set an appointment for me for the next day with Chuck Bartel. Chuck was amazing. We went over all the necessary information and options. He even discussed some of the possible family complications that we thought might arise. After that initial meeting, I called a few more times as issues or questions arose. He handled everything with patience and compassion. While I hope bot to need their services again any time soon, I know that if I need funeral services, Diuguid will make things as easy as possible. I would recommend them to anyone in the area.

My mom passed away on April Fool’s Day. April 1. Sure wished it had been a joke. Mom had already pre planned her funeral arrangements with Diuguid. We met with Dan Mason who was absolutely amazing. It was easier meeting with him because he already had a background of our family. Dan was very kind, caring, truly knew how to comfort us in our grief. Diuguid did a wonderful job preparing mom. Hair was beautiful. Makeup was beautiful. She truly looked so beautiful and peaceful. Dan and his team made sure we had everything we needed for visitation and for the funeral itself. Dan also officiated the funeral. He did an AWESOME and BEAUTIFUL sermon. Mom’s home going was done with such care and dignity. Our family cannot THANK the wonderful employees of Diuguid Funeral Home
