Cremation in Raleigh

Signature Dedication at Brown-Wynne Funeral HomeThere are many options for cremation in Raleigh—and they're not all equal. We specialize in cremation services that honor loved ones in personalized ways, and families love our all-inclusive pricing. With expertise in scattering ashes and a friendly team who pays attention to every detail, we provide service that is second to none.

More and more people are choosing cremation over traditional burial, but most aren’t familiar with the many options:

  • a cremation without a funeral or memorial service of any kind.
  • a funeral with your loved one present, followed by cremation.
  • a cremation followed by a scattering, cemetery memorialization or celebration of life—or all three.

"My mother was in the last days of hospice, and I was able to pre-plan her funeral. It helped not having to make those decisions in the days after her passing. Everything went smoothly and every person I worked with was amazing. Thank you for helping my family."
