About Carothers Funeral Home at Gaston Memorial Park

Carothers Funeral Home at Gaston Memorial Park is part of Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral home chain in the country, which is worth knowing as some families prefer locally or independently owned providers. Pricing and service details are not publicly available for this location, so families should plan to ask directly about costs for cremation, burial, and any other services needed. On Google, the funeral home holds a 4.4-star rating across 87 reviews, which reflects a generally positive experience among those who have shared feedback. Customers frequently praise individual staff members by name — including Jackie, Brittany, and April — for their compassion, patience, and attentiveness during an extremely difficult time; however, at least one reviewer noted multiple administrative errors on important documents, including a death certificate, which is worth keeping in mind as you ask questions about their quality-control process.

My mother passed away and Carothers Funeral Home took care of everything for us. Brittany, one of the workers, walked us through all of the details and steps that needed to be done.

If…

The staff was there supporting me as family members would. I felt they had known me and my wife personally. Everything was handled …
