I can't thank Bradshaw Carter enough for taking care of my grandmother. Raymond and Tripp and their team are the best!! The funeral home is absolutely beautiful. Also so clean and warm feeling. I would recommend them to anyone who needs help in this situation.

My husband's last wish to be buried at Arlington National Cemetery lead to a search for someone experienced and that eventually led us here. We are awaiting the date from the GOVT of course, so we're not finished... However, I am very pleased to share that my reluctant journey down this path has been sweetly supported by Raymond and I could not imagine how it could have been better. Thus far, I am grateful! (To be updated...upon completion.)

My mother in law was so, so special to us, and we wanted to make sure she had a special ceremony. We reached out to Bradshaw Carter and Clay and Suzy and the entire team were just wonderful. Their attention to every detail, respect for the individual wishes of the family, and care and compassion were so appreciated during a difficult time.

Losing someone unexpectedly is devastating enough, to find compassion when you need it most while attempting to manage the business aspects of funeral services, is rare. Tripp Carter and his staff were efficient, professional, explained each detail with kindness. Although we had to arrange services from another state, I was kept informed of every aspect regardless. Thank you Mr. Carter for making this process go as smoothly as possible.

When my husband passed away suddenly, I felt overwhelmed with the number of important decisions I needed to make while grieving my loss. Choosing Bradshaw-Carter was certainly one of the best. Tripp and his team walked me through the process and guided me with utmost professionalism, patience and respect.
Even seven months later, Tripp has provided me guidance on transporting my husband's remains abroad. His knowledge and attention to detail have been invaluable and his compassion has shown through every step of the way.

Tripp Carter and his staff are the epitome of personal service and attention to detail. I have used their services several times and attended many services they have arranged. I am always impressed. Their home is beautiful, tasteful and one feels at home and among friends. I highly recommend Bradshaw Carter when you need care for your loved ones and family the most!

My husband passed away on Sept 4, 2021.
During this heartbreaking time EVERYONE at Bradshaw Carter showed me the utmost respect and compassion. From his arrival there to his cremation I knew he was safe.
When I went to sign the necessary paperwork I felt as if I was sitting in my living room. Clay and Suzy were so kind. They listened to me babble and cry. On
the day of his cremation I was able to
say my goodbyes. I will always remember everyone there. They truly are the best.

Bradshaw Cater is phenomenal to work with. During such a hard time for my grandmother Tripp Carter made things so easy for her. She can be demanding with lots of questions at times and he handled everything beautifully. He was flexible and always available when she had concerns. He would help ease her concerns and did so so much for her. He went above and beyond. Plus he is an absolute joy to speak with and get to know! If you are looking for services where the customer service leaves you feeling like they are one of the family to help lay your loved one to rest, this is hands down the place! Tripp

Bradshaw Carter is the BEST funeral home. When my father in law passed, they were with me every step of the way. They treated me like family! They paid attention to every detail. He was cremated at their facility and the best part was he never left the safety of the funeral home until his urn was ready to return to us. I felt relieved that I chose this company. The whole staff was courteous and very knowledgeable.
I would recommend them to any family that needs their services.

My husband passed away suddenly at the age of 54. Clay with Bradshaw Carter helped me with all of the arrangements needed.
He made the entire experience smooth, comfortable, easy and sounds crazy but enjoyable.
The facility feels homey. The accommodations are spacious and comfortable. For our celebration the staff was wonderful and moved about the crowd filling glasses and making our guest feel so comfortable. Everything was just perfect.
I have received so compliments on my husbands Celebration of Life and I only have Clay and everyone at Bradshaw Carter to thank for making this most difficult
