Being realistic, mourning death is for the living. With being that said, you are left with an obvious need for comfort and compassion after the passing of a loved one. The Frank Bell Family was flawless in providing the caring, comforting, and compassionate services we required during our difficult time.

Grateful for you,
The Briggs Family

The Lord is our strength and redeemer. Thank you Father for Frances and Frank R. Bell Funeral Home. The love and care for the entire family is evident.
Frances may the Lord continue to bless and keep you, your family and company.

First, we would like to thank our Most High God for leading us to call upon Frank R. Bell Funeral Home Inc. after the passing of our beloved mother, the late Harriet Houston. We were also blessed with having you all to serve my mother’s deceased husband, the late John Henry Houston in May 2000. During both of these times of bereavement, Frank R. Bell Funeral Home Inc. staff and the Chief Executive Officer, Frances Bell Henry, treated our family with love, respect, and dignity. During this time, we felt the love and comfort you all showed in preparation of our mother’s burial. We would like to especially thank Ms. Keren for the courtesy she showed as we asked questions. Her quickened response with answers was delightful in spirit. Ms. Olivia was very consistent with details and updates for our family. Last but not least, the Chief Executive Officer, Ms. Frances one whom we refer to as a guardian angel. The comfort, love, and encouragement will never be forgotten. We pray for continued blessings upon Ms. Frances, her family, and staff. Thank you for taking care of our beloved mother. She was cared for for by you all whom are people of God. Thank you for being there so closely and lovingly to our brother Alfonzo Forrest. For we could not be there, but you were. With sincere love, gratitude, and most of all with humbleness, Alfonzo, Lacrecia, Tonya, Jamel. (May 2020)
