PRESS RELEASE:

In an effort to give ample notice and be respectful to the families we serve, Manning Memorial Services is announcing that 2026 will be our last year in the Town of Ashland. We have been blessed by all of the people and connections we’ve made here, but due to a huge demand, we will be moving our company and household to the Richmond area (and still maintaining in Fredericksburg as well).

There was always that one question asked by Ashlanders, “Ashland is a nice place,don’t you think?” Well our answer to that is, look at the government resources and the town’s ability to accommodate consumers,you don’t have to look far to know the answer…

Stay tuned over the next several months for updates.
