Ray Funeral & Cremation Service

Ray & Allen Funeral Service was first established in 1938 by Jesse Ray, Sr. Mr. Ray served the funeral and burial needs of Western North Carolina families for over 56 years. In 1994, Jesse Ray, Jr. assumed management of the business and in 1996 the Ray family purchased Allen & Associates Mortuary to form Ray and Allen Funeral Service. Today, the Ray family serves the funeral, burial and cremation needs of families from many diverse cultural and religious backgrounds in Western North Carolina. At a time of death, you want someone who understands your needs. You can take comfort in knowing that our licensed and experienced staff will handle all of the details in providing your loved one with a final tribute that is meaningful to you and your family.

Ray Funeral & Cremation Service is well-equipped to display memorial or tribute videos of a loved one as they both offer video packages and have the means to display the tribute at the service.

Green burials, also known as natural burials, have been growing in popularity. Ray Funeral & Cremation Service is one of North Carolina’s few providers of environmentally-friendly burial options.
