The doors of Hatfield Funeral Chapel were opened in 1970 to the people of Eastern Kentucky and Southern West Virginia, under the leadership of David & Kathy Hatfield. Since the beginning, the goal of the owners and staff has been to serve the residents of the area with quality preparation work, compassion, dignity, and outstanding service in a comfortable, family-like setting.Over the years, styles, interests, and personal preferences have changed, but the one thing that has remained unchanged is the dependable, quality, and personal service that the Hatfield Funeral Chapel was founded upon. We feel that it is our duty to treat everyone we serve with the utmost respect and dignity,regardless of the status that one holds in life. In the last several years, many family-owned funeral homes have been purchased and are being operated by large corporations with their headquarters in distant areas of the country. Often times, in situations such as this, families are seen only as a number or a business transaction. However, Hatfield Funeral Chapel has been family-owned since the beginning and we strive to assist and guide every family we serve as if they were our own family.At Hatfield Funeral Chapel, we offer a broad range of service options to meet the needs and wishes of the families that we serve. From the traditional service with one or two evenings of visitation, to immediate burial, cremation, or simple memorial service, our service options are unlimited. We are here to assist you in planning a service that meets your needs, and one that will bring you comfort during a difficult time.If your loved one should pass away in a different area of the country or world; and your desire is to bring them back to this area for services and/or burial, we can take care of the necessary arrangements and paperwork for you if you contact us as soon as possible after death has occurred. This will save you time, stress, and a substantial amount of money. This is also true should your loved one pass away here locally and you desire to send them to another area of the country.
