Rollings Funeral Service Announces Recent Acquisition of Tennessee Funeral Home

TYRONE, GA — Rollings Funeral Service is proud to announce the recent acquisition of Bilbrey Funeral Home & Cremation Service in Crossville, Tennessee. The funeral home, which has been serving its community for over 90 years, was formerly owned by Frank Bilbrey Bohannon.

Greg Rollings, president & CEO of Rollings Funeral Service, commented “Bilbrey Funeral Home has built a decades long reputation of trust and compassion when it comes to serving the families of Crossville. Like Rollings Funeral Service, Bilbrey Funeral Home has always been family run and I knew their values aligned perfectly with ours.” Rollings also mentioned that this marks his first acquisition in Tennessee.

Speaking with Frank Bilbrey Bohannon, he mentioned that with over 30 years in funeral service, he wanted to start looking at the next chapter in his life and the funeral home. When asked why he decided to sell the firm to Rollings Funeral Service, Bohannon said “Greg and Debbie Rollings are not like the big companies and they don’t have a one size fits all approach.” With the funeral home being in the Bilbrey family since its founding, family is something that was important to Bohannon in looking for the next owner. “They [Greg and Debbie Rollings] treated us like family and they’ll continue to let us serve our community like family,” Bohannon noted.

Annually, Bilbrey Funeral Home serves around 350 families.
