During our family’s time of shock and grief, Renaissance walked with us and were kind, compassionate and took care of everything we needed expeditiously and made us feel like we were the only ones they were helping. 10/10 recommend.

-Dawn Shriver

When my father passed, the people at Renaissance Funeral Home were wonderful. I appreciate that they are locally owned and not a big, thoughtless corporation. They were kind, compassionate, and their expertise was obvious. I would recommend them to anyone.

-Don Rasbridge

I would not hesitate to recommend this funeral home for your loved ones in the Raleigh area. I have used their services for both of my parents. They are thorough, efficient, caring, and very professional throughout the whole process. They also have great connections with all of the other services you may need in the area during this stressful time, which is very helpful. A special thanks to Heather for her incredible responsiveness and for taking the time to get to know the families and for observing the wishes of those that have passed.

-Rebecca Goldberg

In these situations, you need a careful balance of sympathy and professionalism, and that is exactly what we experienced at Renaissance. In particular, Aly was superb. A knowledgeable and caring person who really helped us throughout the process. The other funeral homes I spoke to seemed “corporate” while Renaissance was “genuine”.
