JAMES A. McALISTER

Funerals & Cremation


"Owned and operated by Jimmy McAlister"


As the preferred funeral home among families who expect a little more, we provide Charleston families with a premier level of service that is simply not possible in large firms. Your family will work with the same team members from the very first meeting until the service has concluded. We remain in touch with families long after a service has taken place and consider those we have served our dear friends.  

Our expertise and caring are extended to all families, regardless of religious affiliation. Our team's experience in handling services of all backgrounds and religious traditions ensures that your family will receive the highest level of caring service.

As Charleston's only Catholic-owned funeral home, we are equipped to provide unparalleled guidance to families planning a Catholic service. We are able to assist in all decisions regarding appropriate Readings, Music, Rosary or Vigil services, Prayer Cards, and other important elements of the liturgy. Our team will work directly with your parish priest and administrators in handling all important decisions for the Mass of Christian Burial. We are also able to assist you with the cemeteries of the Diocese of Charleston.

We are a single-location firm conveniently located on Savannah Highway in West Ashley. We proudly serve the families of Charleston, James Island, Johns Island, Mount Pleasant, North Charleston, Hanahan, Goose Creek, Summerville, and beyond. We are not affiliated with any other firm.
