Since 1866, John M. Oakey & Son has provided caring service to Salem and Roanoke Valley families. We are proud to be an independent, family-owned firm and that our name is one that so many have come to trust over the years. Don't make the mistake of thinking all funeral homes are the same. We pride ourselves on providing caring, personal attention. It's the kind of attention reserved for friends and neighbors. We are Salem’s only locally owned funeral home.
