Burthey Funeral Service

Truly a heart-centered, family owned business. The Burthey Funeral Service team (especially Mrs Burthey) provided my family and I with so much expert advice, insight, care, and support throughout the entire process of transferring my brother’s remains from another state to the service and cremation. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend them to anyone needing support for your loved one in the Durham NC area. Thank you again.

Burthey Funeral Services were beyond professional. They assisted my mother with services for my grandmother. Pam was very welcoming and professional from beginning to end. Your services were immaculate and I appreciate every gesture during this difficult time. Superb service
Thank you!

Probably the most honest review I will write. (My grandfather passed away on August 16th We had his service on the 20th.) This is the first time my family has dealt with anything like this & Burthey Funeral Home was recommended through family. I can’t even begin how much these people cared about our family & my grandfather’s dignity. They walked us through planning the services & followed up with us multiple times a day, every day leading up to the service.
I’ve been to very few funerals/viewings. I have anxiety & I never been to a service where the person was someone I was very close to. Burthey Funeral Home made this whole experience unbelievably peaceful. I didn’t cry. I didn’t feel anxiety, but I felt comfort. They also made sure COVID guidelines were followed. My grandfather: He looked amazing. As cliche as this sounds, He looked as if he was sleeping. My grandfather lost weight & I couldn’t believe how they made him look the same way before he got sick. I even touched him many times & he didn’t feel so cold. He felt as if he was under the A/C. My family & I even said he had a little smirk on his face because he looked very sharp 😂.. I miss my grandfather, but I’m so glad we were able to lay him to rest the way we did. He would’ve been soooooo proud. The staff felt like family. I forgot we were doing “business”. I can not thank them enough. ❤️ Thanks for all you do!

5 stars is not high enough rating. The team at Burthey were absolutely amazing. They made us feel as if we were the only clients that they had and our mother was in great hands. It's never easy to loose a loved one and they were very compassionate to my family wants and needs. And just a class act. Thank you so much..

The Brown Family

Our family was truly pleased with the services and support provided by the staff at Burthey Funeral Services. Pam did an excellent job of helping us with every detail of the planning and arrangements. Her attention to detail, prompt follow-up, and knowledge of local resources made the whole process run smoothly. We really felt supported by her and the staff from start to finish.

In addition to the funeral arrangements, the staff did a fantastic job presenting the body of our loved one. They requested pictures and they really made our loved one look as we remembered her. They are truly gifted in this area.

The day of the service, the Burthey staff was on-time, professional, and respectful of our needs and wishes. Grover did an excellent job facilitating the process and made travel from our home to the church to the grave site a smooth process. They ushered our family throughout the process so we did not have to think about anything but celebrating the life of our loved one.

We really could not have picked a better funeral service to plan and execute the services for our loved one. We would highly recommend their services to anyone who is looking for a professional, affordable, experienced, and well-run funeral service.
