Price Mortuary
Open House Held
Open house was held
Satureday in the chapel of
Price and Son's Mortuary,
Highland Street, Summerville.
%"rank Price, owner of the
funeral home, said it took eight
years for him to complete the
chapel, which features exposed
wooden beams and a tile floor.
Price outlined the
chronology of the funeral
home:
“In 1970, the idea began to
;fgrow from a dream to build a
uneral home. I purchased an
old house that had been con
demned from Mrs. Naomi and
Mid Allen Jr. Remodeling had
to be done to preserve this
house. This was the beginning
of the Price and Son's
Mortuary.
“The idea of the chapel
began in 1976 when I flurchas
ed an old %{)ainery that was
part of 1,000-acre plantation
that had been built in 1816,
from W. M. Mitchell of Walker
County. The beams overhead
was part of this grainery.
TORN DOWN
“This building was torn
down and material was then
used to continue laboring on
the Price & Son's Mortuary
Chapel. For eight long years,
the {)abor continued by me to
build a chapel.
“A house was purchased
from Joyce Parker Johnson,
which was the old Parker home
on Highway 100. Materials
from the oldy Parker home was
used to build the walls of the
present chapel.
“Later, Mr. Tidmore of
Lyerly, gave a house to me just
for the price of tearing it down.
Materials from this house were
used to help finish the walls of
the chapel. Tile was then pur
chased from the scrap yard of
Universal Tile Co. in
Adairsville. This tile was used
in the flooring of the chapel.
HELPERS
**‘Some people who helped to
make this dream become a
reality were Sammy Wells, Joe
Johnson, Cleophus Martin and
many others.
‘*Ellmarie McCutchins,
while on her Mother's Day
vacation in 1986, made the
draperies that adorn the win
dows. Pictures and mirrors
were donated by Ramona
Hudgins, Interior decorations
were donated by Myrtle Price.
Mary Mosley and JoAnn Knox
also donated pictures. EOA
donated a wide brim hat. Ben
ches were purchased from
Cedar Springs Baptist Church
after they purchased new pews
for their sanctuary. Mr.
Jackson, Mr. Joe Brown, Mr.
Joe Pullen gave the rocks that
help to form the walls of the
chapel.
Mrs. Lillie Mae Walker
donated a fern tree and Mrs.
Hastie Adams gave a box
flower. The late Mrs. Leila
Adams, an aunt, assisted her
nephew in doing the ceiling and
in any other way she could.
Mrs. Ruth Starr assisted with
arranging all donated items.
VISION
“I never knew how the
finished product would look,
but the Lord would give me a
vision at night to try
something different. The next
day I would do whatever the
Lord told me. I always said,
‘Thank you Lord for this
vision.’
“The idea of building a
chapel was not only a dream,
but that on one particular day
when Price and g:m's officiated
a service, the church doors
were locked. This further in
spired me to build a chapel of
my own, so that the doors
would be open to me and
anyone who need my services
at any time,"" Price said.
