Welcome to Hoskinson Funeral and Cremation Service

Locally Owned Funeral Homes as Close as Your Hometown


Welcome to the Hoskinson Funeral & Cremation Service website. We are honored to serve the great families living in Licking, Perry and surrounding counties through our chapels located in Newark, Kirkersville, Hebron and Thornville. We also operate our own Crematory called West Licking Crematory, located at our Kirkersville Chapel. Your loved ones never leave our care until we return their cremated remains to you.

Locally owned by Central Ohio families, we provide high quality service at reasonable prices. Our current prices are the lowest that are being charged by any funeral homes in Licking or Perry Counties.  We provide full service funerals and cremation services from our home-like facilities and pride ourselves at planning and scheduling customized services for each family that we serve. In doing so, this truly reflects the unique nature of each person, honoring their lives and creating healing experiences for their families.  

We are available 24 hours a day, every day of the year, to answer questions, offer advice, and give price information over the telephone in accordance with federal law.   

Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can be of assistance in any way.

Sincerely,
Rick Hoskinson and Staff

The Purpose of a Funeral Service

When we experience the death of someone we love, a funeral service fills several important needs.

  • Funerals helps us acknowledge that someone we love has died.
  • Funerals allow us to say goodbye.
  • Funerals offer continuity and hope for the living.
  • Funerals provide a support system for us, friends, family members and the community.
  • Funerals allow us to reflect on the meaning of life and death.
