Brown-Wynne Funeral Home & Crematory

Mark and his team are so compassionate and caring. Mark helped me navigate through difficult tasks to ensure my son’s service was beautiful. The location on St. Mary’s street allows for a beautiful and tranquil drive. The building has a historic charm with a chapel and separate reception wing that creates a feeling of peace when you walk through the door. Thank you for being there during my darkest hour.

This is a wonderful place to serve your loved one and to help the family through this difficult time. They make sure that your wishes are followed, and they help you in many other ways. Their caring and support couldn’t be better. We pre-paid our expenses and saved a lot of money that way. The prices are reasonable and there is no pushing on what to choose. No one pushes you to pre pay either. The directors are there before, during and after to make sure that everything is as perfect as it can be.
Brown Wynne on St. Mary’s Street is the one that we chose. I’m so glad that we did.

Marc, Mark and the entire Brown Wynne team were very supportive and professional. Our entire family was pleased by their efforts.

Staff at Brown- Wynne Funeral were very helpful in explaining options available to us. I had met with a pre- planning staff member several months before and she explained the process. When my husband died recently, the staff was very professional as well as kind & caring. I felt no pressure from any of the staff. The supporting materials they shared with us were an invaluable resource & guide.
We held the service at our church and they made all the arrangements about getting the ashes there & coordinating with the church staff.
I would definitely recommend their services.

My wife and I worked with Carol Whitmire and we found her to be extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and patient with our many questions. Everyone we worked with was extremely helpful and went over and above to make sure that we were well taken care of.

I would like to thank Hall and Brown-Wynne Funeral Home for the wonderful care and support they offered my family during a very difficult time. They took care of every detail, even down to the smallest touches, with great care and attention. I don’t usually post recommendations, but in this case, I would like to highly recommend Hall and Brown-Wynn. Thank you for everything you did for our family.

My wife's last rituals and the ultimate cremation were peformed very smoothly with no pressure whatsoever. I am pleased to the extent that I am prepared to do my own funeral arrangements with the same facility in advance.

Brown-Wynne Funeral Home gave my family outstanding service and compassion during our time of grief. I will always be grateful to them.

The staff is professional, knowledgeable and so kind during this difficult time for your family. They make themselves available at all times to answer any questions you have. You can feel confident that they have everything taken care of for you. I was so grateful for their support.

Hall Edwards and Brown-Wynne funeral home did a great job with my grandmother's funeral. I would highly recommend them to any one in need. They are extremely professional and experienced.

An outstanding team who demonstrated eloquence during a sad time. Your ability to bring care and understanding especially in helping arrange and support the funeral service was impressive. We were all touched with your peaceful send off which was eloquent. Our sincere thanks to all of you. Margaret, Peter’s wife

Marcus and his staff were amazing with the whole process from the day of passing to the funeral very helpful, supportive and made our family feel comforted through everything. Honestly couldn't have done this without them. This is the very first funeral I've ever had to plan and they made everything so much easier. I had the time I needed to go through my process and I felt comforted that they had everything else taken care of.

I can not imagine a better funeral home experience than we had with Brown Wynne when my father passed 11 years ago, but when my mother passed a few weeks ago, it was just me to handle it. No other parent by my side. I never could have imagined how much help and support and leg work that Hall Edwards did to make the process easy. He was straight forward and prepared me for every single step. Guided me with every decision the entire process and was available and made everything happen without any undue stress on me. He was available by phone at the drop of a hat and double checked on every detail for me. He helped with a reception too including slideshow, food and flowers and set up. Hall Edwards at Brown Wynne is the best.

We were again very pleased with the services of Brown-Wynne. We used the business in August 2021 when my dad died and again in February 2023 when my mom died.

Because our circumstances had changed, we had Mother's service here in Raleigh at Hayes Barton Baptist Church. It was really special having Mark Blake with us as he is also a member of Hayes Barton.

I could not recommend Brown-Wynne more highly because of the dedication and professionalism of every single staff member.

Thanks to all!
Susan Shinn Turner and family

I never had to deal with a death of a family member up close and personal. My brother died suddenly and I was unprepared for his death. This was the first time I had to do funeral arraignments. When I call them, Marc Scruggs gave me my options in a very professional manner. To say these guys were great is an understatement. The took care of my brother and kept me informed of the process every step of the way. I am very grateful for what Marc and his organization did for my family at at very trying time in my life. I highly recommend them.

Brown-Wynne took excellent care of our family when my father died. They took over the details immediately, they thought of everything, coached me and told me in easy-to-understand language what to expect. I recommend Brown-Wynne without reservation.

Brown Wyne Funeral Home in Raleigh, NC provided exceptional service during my father's Last Rites ceremony. The staff was cooperative and helpful in ensuring that all the Hindu customs and rituals were followed at their crematorium. The multimedia capabilities also allowed you to stream the memorial service on Facebook, which was a great way for friends and relatives to pay their respects to my father.

It is always difficult to say goodbye to a loved one, but Brown Wyne Funeral Home made the process as smooth and comfortable as possible. The facility was well-equipped to accommodate the customs and rituals specific to my family's traditions, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure that everything was done correctly.

Overall, if you are looking for a funeral home that will provide exceptional service and is accommodating to various religious and cultural practices, I highly recommend Brown Wyne Funeral Home in Raleigh, NC.

Brown-Wynne provides extraordinary care & service during the most difficult time of your life. The entire staff works to be certain you are cared for and try to anticipate your needs. They work with you & walk you through every step of the process with professionalism and kindness. They turn a terrible moment into moments of warm memories and assurance that you & your loved one have been treated with grace & dignity.

As much as I wish that I didn't need Brown-Wynne's services, I am incredibly glad that we chose Mark Blake and his colleagues to attend to arrangements following my brother's unexpected passing. Mark was respectful, compassionate, thorough, and transparent throughout, and my husband and I felt well-supported through a very difficult time. I especially appreciate that Mark expedited arrangements so that we were able to return to Maine with my brother's ashes...it will be a comfort to bring him back to my parents, who were unable to travel to Raleigh themselves. Thank you for caring for William...and for us!

Everyone we dealt with, both before and during the planning process for my mother’s funeral, was so compassionate and caring. We needed advice and input for several details, and they were more than honest and helpful in guiding us toward what would work best and please our family members most. They truly made a difficult experience as comforting as possible and called multiple times to check on us and to make sure we were still satisfied with our decisions. I highly recommend them.
