History

Davenport Funeral Home has been a fixture in Walhalla, SC, since 1949. The business was begun by the Davenport family and was housed in a landmark 1909 home on Main Street. The last of the Davenports passed away in 1991, leaving the business in the hands of long time employee, Larry Hendrix. Upon retiring, Larry Hendrix sold the business to trusted family friend and partner, Terry Woodall II. 

The Woodall family has been a part of serving the community for over 30 years. Terry Woodall has entrusted his sons, Trey and Zac Woodall, with the continuation of managing the family business, and all that is encompassed with Davenport Funeral Home.

Davenport Funeral Home offers three large parlors for visitations, and the chapel is fixed for seating over 240 persons. 

In June of 2007 Davenport Funeral Home purchased the Seneca Mortuary/Seneca Funerals and Cremations, integrating the business into our facility, and returned the longtime business back into local ownership. In April of 2008, Davenport Funeral Home completed construction on its own "state of the art" cremation facility adjacent to our main building. Currently, eight of our staff members hold Certified Crematory Operator status to help serve our families who desire cremation.
