About Rivers-Morgan Funeral Home

Rivers-Morgan Funeral Home is an independently owned funeral home serving the New Bern, NC area. As a full-service provider, they are equipped to handle a range of arrangements, though specific details about cremation, burial, pre-planning, or veterans services are not available here and are worth asking about directly. Their direct cremation starting price of $650 is notably affordable and likely sits at the budget-friendly end of the local market, which may be meaningful for families managing costs during a difficult time. With a 4.0-star Google rating across 9 reviews, the sample size is small enough that it may not reflect the full range of family experiences, so speaking with others in the community or asking for references could provide a more complete picture.

Very unprofessional, I called to simply see the arrangements of a long life friend and was replied with one of the coldest answers!! I would never use this funeral home or wouldn't recommend them!! Also he answer the phone and says "Hello" your a business and not on your personal line.
