Charles Carroll Funeral Home

Compassionate care for Ventura families

Charles Carroll Funeral Home is centrally located between the Pacific Ocean and the Ventura foothills, in the beautiful seaside community of Ventura, California. Situated on the corner of a residential tree-lined street formally known as "Candy Cane Lane," we proudly carry on the family values and warm hospitality established since our founding in 1954.

Personalized funeral services

Our mission is to help families create personalized funerals and memorials. This approach keeps us open to traditional religious rites as well as contemporary gatherings that deeply reflect a person's life. That means that whether you want a basic cremation with cremation remains scattered in a personally meaningful place, a funeral at the funeral home with cemetery burial nearby, or a modern Life Well Celebrated® memorialization with live music and a special send-off, we are happy to deliver. If you can imagine it, we will make it happen. 

We can also tailor our services to arrange for military honors at the funeral home, a cemetery or national cemetery. 

Cremation options

Not everyone knows that there are many cremation options. If you are interested in cremation, the funeral home team can explain the process and different options. From a direct cremation without a memorial service or a witness cremation to a full funeral service before or after the cremation and more, we help you understand this increasingly common choice—and handle all of the cremation arrangements. 

Planning in advance

At Charles Carroll Funeral Home, we also recognize that funeral arrangements and associated expenses can be overwhelming. In addition to assisting during your immediate time of need, our funeral directors specialize in working with families to plan your final arrangements in advance. By preparing these details ahead of time, you provide a sense of relief, peace of mind and comfort to your loved ones while ensuring your wishes are met to your specifications. We are here to discuss your funeral, cremation and cemetery options should you wish to do so in advance.
