For Families Who Want the Full Tradition, Done Right

A traditional funeral includes everything families have come to expect: preparation and embalming, a visitation for friends and family, a formal funeral service, and burial at the cemetery with our staff present for both the ceremony and the graveside service. It is the most complete way to honor a loved one's life.

We publish our prices so families can understand the cost before making a decision. Our traditional funeral package includes the services and merchandise listed below, with no required add-ons from our funeral home.

A full, time-honored funeral deserves the same honesty and transparency as every other choice. Nothing here is hidden, and nothing is inflated.

What Families Have Shared with Us

Over 14 years, we've had the privilege of serving thousands of families across North Carolina.

"I have been absolutely astounded at the kindness and professionalism of City of Oaks. They have made the hardest time of my life - losing my father - so much easier with regard to everything that comes after."
"City Of Oaks made a very sad and emotionally draining experience as easy as it could possibly be. Somer and her staff were extremely caring, informative, and made this process a smooth one. From the initial meeting, to the choices of services/products, and the final acceptance, we always felt our needs and feelings were the upmost importance. Also, all costs are set out initially, and there are no “hidden fees” or necessary add-ons."
"The compassion and kindness and generosity shown by Edward and Trey to my family and me during a really sad time made the cremation process more bearable. It was important to us to know that our loved one was being received and cared for in a respectful and loving way. They took time to let us share with them about our loved one and we felt comforted. They were very thoughtful with their suggestions and showed us they genuinely cared about how our loss affected each member of our family. They were truly a blessing to us!"
