Hixson Brothers Funeral Homes

Hixson Brothers Funeral Homes has been a cornerstone of compassionate care in Central Louisiana since 1907, when the Hixson family first committed to serving families of all faiths, beliefs, traditions, and cultures. With a deep-rooted history spanning over a century, the firm has grown to operate multiple locations across the region, including its flagship Alexandria facility at 701 Jackson Street, as well as chapels in Pineville, Jena, and Marksville. Each location is dedicated to providing personalized, professional, and empathetic support during life’s most difficult moments. The Alexandria location, which is the subject of this profile, is conveniently situated on Jackson Street and offers on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible entrances, and a wheelchair-accessible parking lot to ensure that all families can access services with dignity and ease. The funeral home is rated a perfect 5.0 out of 5 on Google Maps, based on 108 reviews, reflecting its unwavering commitment to excellence and community trust. Hixson Brothers offers a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet diverse needs. These include traditional funeral services, burial services, and cremation options, all of which can be personalized to celebrate the unique life of a loved one. The firm also provides a “Celebrating Life” program designed to honor memories in meaningful ways, as well as pre-planning services that allow individuals to arrange their own end-of-life care in advance, easing the burden on family members. Pre-planning can be initiated online through the funeral home’s secure portal, and the staff is available to guide families through every step of the process. Beyond the immediate needs of a funeral, Hixson Brothers is deeply invested in ongoing support for the bereaved. Their aftercare program, “365 Days of Healing,” offers grief resources, counseling referrals, and compassionate follow-up throughout the first year following a loss. The funeral home’s website features an obituary section where family and friends can share memories, express condolences, and send flowers through an integrated tribute store. Recent obituaries, such as those for Brenda Sue White, Jonathan Scarborough Forester, MD, and Randy Richard Humphries, demonstrate the active role the funeral home plays in honoring lives within the community. Hixson Brothers is not merely a funeral provider; it is a trusted partner in the journey of grief and remembrance. With a century-old legacy of service, a team of dedicated professionals, and a commitment to embracing all traditions, the firm stands as a pillar of strength and compassion in Alexandria and the surrounding areas.
