General Info:
Barlow Bonsall Funeral Home & Crematorium is a family-owned and operated provider of quality, compassionate funeral and cremation services in Charleston, WV. The company was founded by the Johnson family in 1875, with a focus on being the most trusted team in Charleston and the Tri State area for dignified funeral services. Today, the business is operated and managed by third and fourth generation Funeral Directors in the family. Over the years the company has grown, the facility was updated, and funeral service options were expanded. However, the original values of the business remain the same. Making funeral arrangements can feel overwhelming, especially when a sudden loss occurs and you are dealing with many different emotions. The team at Barlow Bonsall Funeral Home & Crematorium is here and ready to help at your time of need. Just make the phone call, and we will take over and guide you through the rest. It is our goal to ensure you can focus on grieving and honoring the life of your loved one. We will take care of the rest of the details and bureaucratic steps, from paperwork and documentation, to coordinating with service providers, transporting and preparing the deceased, and performing services. We have a private crematorium, which gives families the comfort of knowing the deceased remain in our care throughout the whole process. Our cremation services are done with care by a Licensed Crematory Operator, with respectful handling of remains and an affordable cost. Some people choose cremation as a less costly option, since replacing a traditional funeral and burial with cremation can be much less expensive. Others choose cremation due to the flexibility of options it provides. We can help with low-cost direct cremations with no other service. There are also many options available to have a cremation with memorial services, graveside services, optional viewing, a reception, memento items and jewelry, and many other options. We carry a variety of urns, so you are sure to find an urn that meets the budget and look you prefer.
