About Tharp Funeral Home & Crematory

Tharp Funeral Home & Crematory is an independently owned funeral home serving the Bedford, Virginia area, which often means families can expect more personalized attention than they might find at a corporate-owned provider. As a full-service provider with an on-site crematory, they are equipped to handle both cremation and burial services, and having their own crematory can give families greater peace of mind about the care of their loved one throughout the process. Direct cremation starts at $3,845, which will be worth comparing against other local providers to get a sense of where that falls in the regional market. Tharp holds a 5.0-star rating on Google, though the 27 reviews on record represent a relatively small sample, so while the feedback is consistently positive, families may want to seek out additional firsthand accounts when making their decision.

When my Dad passed away I think we all were in shock. Tharp Funeral Home was there for us then, and now. My sister and I had never done anything like this before. They were gentle and kind and gave us as much time as we needed and assistance we needed. Dad had said he had everything taken care of…
