About Tharp Funeral Home

Tharp Funeral Home is a full-service funeral home in Metairie that operates as part of Carriage Services, a large national corporate chain, which is worth knowing for families who prefer locally or independently owned businesses. Reviewers frequently praise specific staff members — particularly Stephanie Weigel — for their compassion, patience, and attention to personal details, and the home has earned a 4.8-star rating across 72 Google reviews. One reviewer noted that pricing compared favorably to other area funeral homes, though at least one customer reported a difficult experience when seeking a simple, low-cost cremation, describing a process that did not go smoothly after they clearly communicated financial limitations — a concern worth raising directly with staff if budget is a primary factor. Families with straightforward service needs and good communication upfront appear to have very positive experiences here, but those navigating financial constraints may want to ask detailed questions about costs and expectations before proceeding.

I could not have asked for a better experience. Stephanie made everything so easy, and showed compassion for what I was going through. She was patient and kind and I will never forget her. I wanted to honor my Dad because he loved the Beatles and she suggested we play them on Spotify in the backg…

We have used this funeral home to lay three other family members to rest, so when my father-in-law passed, we returned in good faith. From the beginning, we were very clear that there was no money available and that we only wanted a simple cremation and to pick up his remains. Unfortunately, the ex…

Tharp Funeral Home is absolutely, hands down, the best funeral home in Louisiana! Layla was so sympathetic and helpful, that she made this trying time easier than I thought it would be. She wasn't pushy and made suggestions that were readily accepted. The prices were better than most of the other fu…
