History

Established in 2008.

Lige Sims Funeral Home was originally organized in historic East Point, Georgia in 1943. It wasn’t until 2008 that Lige’s grandson, Fernando, reinstated his grandfather’s business to carry on his family’s legacy. Having grown up just down the street from where his grandfather’s funeral home had last operated, and hearing colorful stories about Lige’s audacious personality, Fernando saw a need for quality funeral care in Metro Atlanta. Naturally he was drawn to picking up where Lige had left off. He decided to continue the legacy of his late grandfather and reopen a funeral home under the Sims name.
