McDonald & New Funeral Homes, also known locally as New Funeral Homes, is a family-owned and independently operated funeral home deeply rooted in the Owenton, Kentucky community. With a legacy of compassionate service, this funeral home is proud to be locally owned and staffed entirely by individuals who were born and raised in Owen County.

New Funeral Homes offers a comprehensive range of services designed to meet the diverse needs of families during their time of loss.
