On Oct. 11, 2021 my beautiful mother, Ms. Violet O. Ward Ridgeway, passed away at the age of 92. Our family completed all of our pre-planning with Preston Charles Funeral Home and had such a beautiful experience as we cared for our mothers end of life transition.
The first time I spoke to Preston I knew this was where we wanted to be. We set a time to meet for our initial engagement to discuss all the arrangements we needed to make sure my mother’s home going would be fit for a Queen. Preston was honest, patient, caring and professional, and he made himself available to us whenever we needed

Preston Charles has been in the funeral business for over 25 years and it shows by his knowledge on how to handle ANY type of circumstance your family may experience. He has funeralized many of my family members and we have set it up that he will do many more of our family. His concern for our grief is delivered with compassion this world does not see any more in this industry. His patience to explain how things goes in this time when a person can barely think was mind blowing every time he interacted with my family. While it is a sad time, he even knows how to lead you to smiling dealing with

€œIn times past I’d recommended the services of Preston Charles Funeral Home to others but when our family needed urgent assistance after the passing of my father-in-law. Preston Charles and his team stepped up in a tremendous way to attend to our family needs at a critical time. Through-out the entire process of putting our loved one to rest: from transporting their remains very early in the middle of the night from the home where he resided in, with the excellent advice and recommendations during the planning of the funeral, to utilizing thoughtful care and compassion while interacting with
