In short - do not use this funeral home. They released my mom's ashes to the wrong person…read more I would strongly advise against using Parrish Funeral Home. They released my mom's ashes to the wrong person, even after I repeatedly confirmed who they were supposed to go to, and the director/owner agreed to this (and after I paid for the cremation myself). This wasn't just a simple mistake--it was a huge failure in responsibility, especially at such a sensitive time. The most upsetting part is that they didn't even offer an apology or show any accountability for their mistake, and zero empathy from the director/owner when I brought the error to their attention. Losing a loved one is hard enough, but the mishandling of my mom's remains only made things more traumatic. I really hope no one else has to go through what I did. Please think twice before trusting them with your loved ones.

Kinda morbid to do a funeral home review, but here goes…read more.. They put together a really fine service for my sister-in-law. One bump in the road was the problem of getting the memorial video up and running on the projector, but they eventually got it to work. Actually, that may have been on the church, so I won't dwell on that too deeply. Anyway, they seem as good as any other funeral home, but I have to say that the deceased didn't look much like how I remembered her when she was alive. But that's nothing. The body is just a shell.

Every question was answered, every need was met, and even BEFORE my family arrived, Mr. Tony personally called my parents and made himself available to them to be of further assistance. Walter Sanders truly goes above and beyond the call of duty; you can trust them to take care of your loved ones.

I am in absolute awe of the way we were treated and cared for through this process. The love and compassion that we received was incomparible. Mr. Tony and the team helped me to renew my faith in people and my community. In the most devastating circumstances, they had my family in their hands by trade but obviously in their hearts by choice. I hope I don't have to deal with them any time soon but when the time does come...I wouldn't choose anyone else. Thank you Tony and Walter Sanders team.

He was cremated here but we were planning on a Memorial Service in Four Oaks. The coordination between the home we used in DE cremation and R&G was so non stressful in a very stressful time for our family. Justin is who we dealt with primarily. He was very compassionate and professional. Pastor Eddie did the service and he did a wonderful job. He took his time meeting with the family to find out information about my dad. He incorporated all of our wishes. He shared the gospel of Christ. As a family, we feel incredibly grateful and blessed that the life of our husband and father was treated with so much respect.

And it's not like you have a lot of money saved up for unexpected tragedy. You are just getting over a truly life-changing loss and then suddenly you have to come up with like $10,000 with some other funeral homes. I'm in Boston and my girl was in North Carolina. However Mr Peterkin handled everything well and it was very reasonable. It's like you are Shell Shocked from the loss of your loved one and you just want everything taken care of for you. And that's what Mr Peterkin was able to provide me. Nobody's perfect but he was always in touch and it made a big difference to me during a very tough time and sadly, it doesn't get easier. But Mr Peterkin really did a great service for me handling everything and did a great job in a very reasonable price and he was completely understanding and nice.
