Kinchen Funeral Home, Inc.

In 1996, plans were made to further expand the funeral home. Eleven acres of property, not far from the original site, were identified and purchased. Approximately 3.4 acres were rezoned for the business. Construction began on the building in the spring of 2001 and this was completed in October 2002. The newly constructed building is 8000 square feet and contains an embalming room, casket room, office space, coffee and reception areas, and is surrounded by a spacious parking area. It also contains two viewing rooms, each with a seating capacity for approximately 200 people. These rooms can be converted into one large room that can seat approximately 400 people. Each room has a speaker system and a podium for use with funeral services. Since 2002 Kinchen Funeral Home has been located at 1011 North St. Antoine Street, Lafayette, LA.

Since 1938 Kinchen Funeral Home has provided the Lafayette community with professional, sympathetic and expert service. As the business grew, they built a full-service facility that included viewing, casket and embalming rooms. In the 1970s the facility was enlarged to approximately 3000 square feet and in 1987 the facility was remodeled. Join us Sunday November 12 at our Lafayette location at 1011 N.

Ernest W. Kinchen Sr. and Edna J. Kinchen helped found Kinchen Funeral Home in November 1938, and were the pioneers for why it's such an important part of the community even today. Armed with a mission to provide the citizens of the Lafayette community with professional, sympathetic and expert service, Mr. and Mrs. Kinchen used the space on one side of their home for wakes and viewing, and their embalming room was sectioned off from the garage. As the business grew, they built a full-service facility that included viewing, casket and embalming rooms. Over the years we expanded our Lafayette location to the 8000 sq. ft. that exists today including a second location in Abbeville, LA, Kinchen Funeral Home CM Butler Chapel located at 218 N St Valarie St.
