He was cremated here but we were planning on a Memorial Service in Four Oaks. The coordination between the home we used in DE cremation and R&G was so non stressful in a very stressful time for our family. Justin is who we dealt with primarily. He was very compassionate and professional. Pastor Eddie did the service and he did a wonderful job. He took his time meeting with the family to find out information about my dad. He incorporated all of our wishes. He shared the gospel of Christ. As a family, we feel incredibly grateful and blessed that the life of our husband and father was treated with so much respect.

It's a genuine pleasure to write this review. We recently utilized Bryan-Lee Mortuary in Raleigh…read moreto facilitate the burial of my Mother. There was a viewing here in Houston, then travel via Air to North Carolina, and lastly auto transportation to Wake Forest to bury. Through Bryan-Lee of Raleigh everything went without any issues! The average person will most likely be distraught when trying to arrange for burial or cremation. Fortunately for us, Bryan-Lee Mortuary in Raleigh has an extremely helpful staff. They set up everything for us with minimal efforts on our part. So, we could do what we needed to do, grieve and support with family and friends. Justin, Maria, Ed and the whole Bryan-Lee crew were in a word: Exceptional. Not only did Justin let us know everything that was going on in the process; he also handled any issues that came our way. Every time I called, Maria answered the phone! It was nice NOT talking or pushing buttons through an auto-attendant... Although I sincerely hope I do not have to utilize their services in the near future, but if I do, I will be returning to Bryan-Lee Mortuary in Raleigh in the future.

While it feels a little weird to review a funeral home, I want to share my family's positive…read moreexperience with Bryan-Lee. I hope this will help others who don't know much about planning funeral arrangements (as my mom, brother, and I did not), and perhaps it will lighten their burden a bit. My dad passed away two weeks ago. We did not make arrangements in advance because while we knew his terminal cancer was going to end his life, we could not anticipate it happening three days after the doctors told us there was nothing more they could do. So we were in quite the bind at UNC Hospitals at 2 AM when we had a body and no idea what to do from there. We were interested in a place near downtown Raleigh, and Bryan-Lee was referred to us. Do not let its Wake Forest Rd. address throw you off. It's located just past where Wake Forest Rd. and Person St. downtown turn into each other (near the Krispy Kreme). In fact, Bryan-Lee is located in the Historic Mordecai district, in an historical home, which my dad would have really liked. Bryan-Lee handled everything with ease: They made the arrangements with the hospital to pick up my dad's body. They handled the cremation as well. They gave my mom a financial information packet about handling bank accounts and the steps to take after losing a spouse. They gave us all of the instructions for writing an obituary. They submitted our piece to the newspapers we requested. One of them was a paper in South Carolina, where I grew up. Andy from Bryan-Lee e-mailed me the day after Dad's obit ran to tell me that he had called that paper after he noticed the online article did not contain a picture of my dad. They assured him that the print version did run the photo, and he wanted to be sure to write that to me before I looked and got upset. Attention to detail, consideration, and customer service like that made Bryan-Lee a great business to work with. The space itself, where my family held a visitation, is lovely. It reminded me of a country club and living room at the same time. By that, I mean it is formal and classy while also comfortable. There were chairs and sofas around the room (which was very large). They have a way to play music if you bring some (though we chose to play it from my brother's computer). They provide ample tissues, mints, and water. They also direct guests arriving to the proper room, take their coats, provide empty boxes so we can take flower arrangements home, handle all of the paperwork required, and other things I'm sure I did not notice. Overall, my family was very pleased with Bryan-Lee Funeral Home. They are friendly professionals who really make you feel safe and welcome when you are otherwise feeling sad, confused, and in a vulnerable position. I recommend them to anyone in need of their services.

My baby was born premature this summer and he passed away. There's so many positive things I could…read moresay about this funeral home. First, the stupid nurse at the hospital told me she would watch my baby personally until the funeral home picked him up. She did not. I called the funeral home the evening after leaving the hospital to see if they had picked up my baby yet, but they said they had never gotten a call from the hospital. Even still, they went and got my baby. It was late and they didn't have to do that. I literally cannot explain how much that meant to me that they went and got my baby after hours. I know I wasn't thinking straight, but knowing that my baby was in a funeral home that cared about him instead of the hospital morgue made me feel so much better. Also, the director and assistant director, and literally everyone we came in contact with was so sensitive and supportive of all of our wishes. We even asked if we could see our baby after he had been very warm and decomposing in my arms for a couple days. I could tell it made them slightly uncomfortable, but they let me do it anyway. That meant so much to me. They handled him as if he were a real baby and not just some dead baby doll, like so many others had treated him. Also, when my husband had called them a day after our baby was born, there was some miscommunication that happened, and his death date was wrong on his original grave marker. When I called them and told them that, they came out that same day and fixed it. I had even told them that it was fine if it took a few weeks to do that. But they did it immediately.

Many, many thanks again and I will surely recommend your funeral services in the future. Shaun also gave us a beautiful blanket with her picture on it and made a wonderful CD with all the pictures I had picked out of the family to show during the wake. We will treasure these items forever. Thanks again Shaun for making this day go so smooth.. the Brannan family appreciates you very much. Also, the presentation of our mom in the casket was outstanding.
