Funeral Homes near Newton, NC

“I did not grow up in this area, so when my husband passed unexpectedly, I had no idea which funeral home to use. Someone suggested Bennett and I'm so glad that they did.Robbie, his wife and staff make you truly feel that you are the only person they are working with during the time of planning a service until it is over.Robbie went out of his way to meet with me at my location, he made sure every detail was taken into consideration, when I couldn't think for myself.During this time, I didn't even consider what this would cost because I was so distraught, however, when I received my finalized bill, I was pleasantly surprised by the total. I felt that my bill was lower than I would've expected. This is especially true because of the number of people involved in the arrangements from the beginning to the end.I can not say enough good things about the wonderful staff at Bennett's. I highly recommend them.”

“Aaron could not have been more helpful during the toughest weeks of mine and my families week. During the whole process of my fathers funeral Aaron was the ultimate professional while at the same time seeming more like a friend of the family then someone just doing there job! I hope to not have use his services for a very long time but he would definitely be the one I called!”

“Hickory Funeral Home is one of the long standing funeral services located in Hickory NC. We have had both our mom and dad's funeral arrangements made here by them prior to their deaths. Experiencing their deaths was hard enough, but knowing Hickory Funeral Home had pre-arrangements made by our parents made the hard decisions easy. Very professional and very caring with our family during the initial meetings, through the funeral and after. I would recommend Hickory Funeral Home to anyone.”

“My aunt passed away on May 14, 2024. Wesley was present at the home when we pulled up to be with my cousin. He was very gentle and comforting from the moment he met us in the driveway. I watched Wesley and his coworker lay my aunt on the stretcher, and they did it with such care and compassion. Wesley, then, came back and answered all the questions that I had. When we met with Wesley at the funeral home a few days later, he made the atmosphere lighter for us. Instead of funeral talk, we had conversations about other things, since I know his wife, in between the difficult parts of the conversations.

I was, even, able to reach out to Wesley on Facebook with questions and the picture that was used for my aunt's obituary. Yesterday was my aunt's memorial service. Wesley and Butch did an amazing job. Wesley met us in the parking lot and guided us into the church. He, then, guided us through what would happen during the service and, when it was time for us to walk to the front, I do believe he was singing "Amazing Grace". After the service, he made it a point to instruct each vehicle on how the procession would work, and then when we arrived at her interment, Wesley and Butch made every effort to make us comfortable.

I will forever be grateful for Wesley and Butch. They did a phenomenal job and we are blessed.”
