Elliott Sons Funeral Home

Elliott Sons Funeral Home, located at 4255 Columbia Road in Martinez, Georgia, has been a cornerstone of the Augusta and Central Savannah River Area since its founding in 1896 by R.E. Elliott Sr. What began as a small operation above his furniture store on Broad Street has grown into one of the region's most respected funeral service providers. R.E. Elliott Sr. was a pioneer in the industry, being the first funeral director in Georgia to utilize motorized hearses, and his compassionate approach endeared him to countless families. Over the decades, the business moved to 11th and Ellis Street, then to Telfair Street, before opening its current Martinez location in 1994. The crematory, originally on Telfair Street, was relocated to the Columbia Road facility in 2003, allowing the team to provide seamless, on-site cremation services.

Today, Elliott Sons Funeral Home offers a full range of services including traditional burial, cremation, and pre-planning options. The Martinez chapel serves a diverse community, welcoming families from various religious denominations such as the Islamic Society, the Hindu Temple, and the Augusta Jewish Societies. The funeral home is also proud to serve the broader areas of Aiken County, Columbia, Evans, Grovetown, Martinez, McDuffie County, Richmond, and Woodbridge. With a Google Maps rating of 4.9 out of 5 based on 65 reviews, the staff is known for their compassionate, professional, and personal approach.

The funeral home specializes in creating personalized tributes that reflect the unique qualities of each individual. Families are encouraged to incorporate favorite music, hobbies, flowers, and philosophies into the service. The team assists with obituaries, photo displays, military honors for veterans, monument selection, and processional coordination.
