If you’ve spent some time living in Kinston at any point during the past century, you probably know of Edwards Funeral Home. According to Jim Eason, who became part-owner of the business in 1986 before spending 30 years at the helm, it's the oldest funeral home in town, and it's been sitting on the same stretch of North Queen Street as long as he has known it existed. And to celebrate its 100th anniversary, current owner Justin Smith is wrapping up major renovations.
