Battle Funeral Home has been honored for its time and service since 1933. In Phenix City, Alabama, in February 1933, W. C. Battle, Sr. entered the funeral industry. Battle and Battle Funeral Home continues to serve families in Russell County and surrounding areas of Alabama and Georgia. In June 1963, W. C. Battle, Jr. founded Battle Memorial Funeral Home as part of his vision to establish a professional funeral service for the African American community in the Bay County area and to build that legacy. It was first located at 605 East 10th Street, and later the family built a new facility at 1123 Cove Boulevard, a street since renamed Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard. Completed in 1972, this facility offers complete funeral services, including burial, cremation, and shipping throughout the U.S. as well as international shipping.
