We will continue to provide online and phone arrangements for those who would feel more comfortable.
We ask you to refrain from attending services or making arrangements in person if you have been exposed or feel ill.

Grace Gardens Funeral Home and Crematory is one of thirteen funeral homes that make up Higginbotham Funeral Homes of Texas, Inc., a family corporation serving Central Texas since 1881. Our funeral directors and staff that work for us joined this profession to serve others. They have an innate desire to guide people through a journey of unknowns.

What about Pre-Planning or Pre-Funding our funeral?
We ask that you call and set up a time for a phone conference with one of our funeral directors or pre-need specialists. In most cases we will be able to drop off paperwork in person for signatures or send contracts through email that may be completed and digitally signed.
