We offer a wide variety of services that include traditional burials, cremation, memorial services, monuments and markers, and pre-planning. The following are a brief description of some of our services because we want to ensure you are properly informed of your options so you may choose what service is right for you:

Best Funeral Home is able to conduct a complete traditional service with visitation and funeral service at our Middlefield location, any Place of Worship, or any other designated facility of your choosing.
Graveside Services
Best Funeral Home is able to perform graveside and committal services at any cemetery in Ohio. These could be with or without a formal visitation.
Full Service Cremation
A full service cremation consists of utilizing our rental casket and having the deceased present for a visitation and service. Cremation would then take place afterward.
Direct Cremation
Direct Cremation is also an available option. With this service, there are no formal viewings or services.
What can I do with cremated remains?
With a cremation, many choose earth burial, a columbarium, or scattering of the ashes as a final disposition. We would like to inform you of other options that may be of interest to you. Please select any of the following tabs to visit the websites of these options. We will be more than happy to help arrange any you may choose.
Please feel free to ask our funeral directors about any of these options.

Gary couldn’t be a nicer man! Cremation cost is half or more than most charge! He is friendly, compassionate & very accommodating. I would recommend him highly!
My family has trusted Best with caring for both of our parents and some pets after they passed away. I have a very high opinion of the care they give to the family at such a sensitive time. I would personally recommend them for a family member or pet when that time comes.
Gary is the best. The experience at Best Funeral Home was filled with compassion and professional service. Would highly recommend them and will use them again.
I want to thank Gary for his patience and kindness when my husband Bill passed on August 12. Gary wrote a loving obituary using information I'd given him.He helped with the necessary paper work details. He made the process easier and took away the stress involved.I appreciated his compassion. I'll always remember his calmness. Sandi Kovanes

I'm still in shock of the passing of my sweet caring lovable son John Joseph Miller who fought 17 years of a TBI from a car accident 04/15/2006. Gary and everyone were so kind and compassionate during our time of grief. They surely will be used "next time" God Bless Gary and all who helped me, my family
I cannot express enough how grateful we are in the handling of my dear husband during this very difficult time. Gary went over and above to accommodate all of my requests, questions, changes etc. and truly empathized with me for our great loss. I am recommending them to family and friends, when they have to make these difficult choices.
