We cannot thank Brown/Wynne funeral home enough for the outstanding care they gave our family after the passing of my husband and our children’s father. Hall Edwards took care of all of our needs in a very timely manner before and after the service. Hall even wore a red tie at the service to honor my husband. Many thanks to Brown/Wynne and especially Hall Edwards.
Mark Blake and the staff at Brown Wynne (St. Mary’s Street Raleigh) provided the kindness and compassion that every family dealing with the loss of a loved one deserves. They listen. Every detail was perfect. It was clear that Mark and his team are dedicated to that quality of care. We are truly grateful for their services.
I'd just like to chip in here with a positive review for Brown-Wynne. My father passed away recently and I can't imagine a smoother and more respectful process than I had with Brown-Wynne. Maranda was great for our family at every step of the way, explaining all our options, working with us to meet us where we were and what we wanted for my Dad, and following up to let us know how things were going on there end so we could plan for a ceremony at home appropriately. Again, couldn't have been a better experience in a difficult time to navigate. Thank you to all and Brown-Wynne and highly recommended.
