I rarely write reviews, but Raymer-Kepner Funeral Home truly deserves one…read more During one of the hardest times in our family's life, their staff showed us incredible compassion and care. Erin, the funeral director, handled everything and guided us through the entire process with kindness and professionalism. She made a very difficult situation much easier for our family.

That moment meant a lot and showed how much they truly care about the families they serve. If you're looking for a funeral home that treats people with dignity, respect, and genuine compassion, you won't find a better place than Raymer-Kepner Funeral Home.

Heartfelt Gratitude for Harrisburg Funeral & Cremation…read more My sister, Debra, and I want to express our deepest gratitude to Harrisburg Funeral & Cremation for the compassionate care they provided for both of our parents. They took care of our father's cremation and final wishes in January 2022, and most recently, our mother's in October 2025. From the very beginning, they were extremely kind, understanding, and attentive to every detail with such care and love. Both Keshia and Tish were incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. They gave us time and space to grieve before taking our parents into their care, and the gentlemen who came to our home handled everything with dignity, sensitivity, and respect. Their shirts read, Heavenly Transport. What stood out most was that they guided us gently through each step with empathy, thoughtfulness, and honesty. We are especially grateful for the beautiful fingerprints they provided of our mother -- a keepsake we will cherish forever. Her box with the ashes turned out so beautiful too. See photo I uploaded. We are truly thankful for everything Harrisburg Funeral & Cremation has done for our family. Their compassion and professionalism made one of life's hardest moments a little easier to bear. -- Pamela & Debra

We were hurt, confused, exhausted, and dreaded making the funerary arrangement for my dad. But the thoughtful courtesy, kindness and impeccable professionalism of everyone we dealt with at Carolina Cremation made my father's sudden and sorrowful passing easier. Everyone we spoke with answered all of our questions with sincerity, were respectful of our requests and reactions, and put forth extra effort to help us out at every turn. The facility is immaculate as well. There really isn't a way for me to express how helpful and comforting they were, and I highly recommend them.

They were fine. The service was very fast-food and clinical. It wasn't hand holding and empathy and…read morehere's my card, ask me any questions, I'm here for you. It was strictly business. You came in, paid them the money, and left. They were a little brusque and determined to get that money upfront, as if they're used to being stiffed (no pun intended). They're one of the cheapest cremation services in town (even cheaper if you arrange it in advance), and you get what you pay for. They didn't screw anything up, they just give you the very basic service and send you on your way. Everything else cost extra. Even putting the ashes in an urn you brought in costs $40 or something that I considered annoying. Any way they can upcharge, they will, but It's not like they're pushy. They're just not friendly or charming or even particularly sympathetic, and it can be kind of hard for some people who are suffering from a loss to deal with someone who seems... cold. Additionally, they screwed up when we made the appointment and forgot to tell us we had to bring in various documentation (and that if there are siblings, more than half of them have to fill out the same form agreeing to the cremation, not just one person, even if that person is the executor), so it was a bit of a hassle in the beginning and we had to come back. Again, it was fine but I personally would've rather paid a little bit more money for real service and compassion.
