About Carothers Funeral Home
Carothers Funeral Home is a full-service funeral home in Dallas, NC operating under Dignity Memorial, a brand of Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral home chain in the country — families who prefer locally or independently owned funeral homes may want to note this distinction. They offer a range of services including burial, pre-planning, and services at Salisbury National Cemetery, suggesting some experience with military families, though at least one reviewer reported a serious negative experience involving a veteran's arrangements, including billing disputes and concerns about VA insurance acceptance. With only 14 Google reviews, it is difficult to draw broad conclusions, but their overall rating of 3.9 stars reflects a mixed picture — staff members like Mandy Williams and April Hernandez are praised by name for their professionalism and compassion, while the one flagged complaint about veterans' services describes feeling misled about costs and benefits, which is worth considering carefully if your family has a veteran. Pricing information was not available for this summary, so families are encouraged to request a General Price List directly, which funeral homes are required by law to provide upon request.

★★★★★Barbara Shelton
6 months agoOur preplanning contact with Dignity Memorial was April Hernandez. She was the quintessential professional. She was quite helpful with suggestions but never once did she try to push us to any decision. We are quite pleased with our final decisions and are able to rest assured that our loved ones …
★★★★★Sheena Thomasson
9 months agoAwesome experience to help me plan for the future. I don't have to worry about anyone trying to figure out how they are doing to pay for it. Very helpful and friendly. Super professional.
★★★★★Lee Ellison
a year agoIf you or your family are Veterans I would strongly suggest you find another place! This was the worst experience of my life! We were lied to several times! They were charging us for things we were told was complementary. They will not take the VA insurance (we were told they would). They wouldn't t…
★★★★★Rhonda McPeters
4 years agoMandy Williams was very helpful, caring and supportive during our difficult time of loss. All of the staff were so kind and polite and friendly during the receiving/service for the home going of our loved one. Thank you to everyone at Carothers for just being there for all our needs.

We were given this funeral home as a suggestion from friends and we would give the same suggestion…
