About Greer-McElveen Funeral Home & Crematory

Greer-McElveen Funeral Home & Crematory is an independently owned, full-service funeral home serving the Lenoir, NC area, which may appeal to families who prefer working with a locally rooted business rather than a corporate chain. As a full-service provider with an on-site crematory, they are equipped to handle both cremation and traditional burial arrangements under one roof. Direct cremation starts at $695, which is generally considered a budget-friendly price point and may be a meaningful consideration for families managing costs. Their Google rating of 3.6 stars across 33 reviews is somewhat below the range many families look for, and the modest review volume makes it harder to draw firm conclusions — it would be worth reading through those reviews carefully to understand what experiences, positive or negative, are being described before making a decision.

My family member had the funeral expense covered in FULL then they proceed to saydue to inflation it's going to be 3000 more dollars, not only that but they put his money in THEIR bank and was drawing interest on it which would be more than enough to cover expenses. So not only charging more but em…

In 2018, I buried my husband, the staff at this funeral home were very kind, very considerate, and extremely helpful ,easing the many details with the lose of a loved one. A remarkable show of sincerity, was a card of rememberance on the date of the death a year later. Remarkable!

Absolutely the worst funeral home that I’ve ever dealt with. Disrespectful to say the least. They broke several state laws, including denying our family the right to see the deceased. On the day of the service, they acted like we were ruining their day. The lady who represented the funeral home sat …
