Tharp Funeral Home & Crematory is proud to be the most often selected funeral home in Bedford. Contact us for funeral and cremation arrangements.

We're not a big-city funeral home or a multi-location conglomerate. But, for many years now, we have been providing our community with warm, caring, compassionate service, respecting each family's decisions and performing each service with dignity, integrity and trust... All at a truly reasonable cost. We provide caring and respectful funeral services, funerals and cremations to both the proud residents of Bedford City and Bedford County, and also to those in the surrounding areas which include Roanoke, Lynchburg and Central Virginia. Our Commitment is Strong and Simple: Our funeral home is the result of listening to today's consumer and responding in kind. From the warm, home-like atmosphere to our reasonable pricing and dignified, compassionate service... We strive to deliver what YOU want.

No matter if a death is sudden, or if it something that was a long time coming, the loss of a loved one makes us feel emotional and overwhelmed. No amount of preparation can fully prepare you for the loss of a loved one. When you are in a heightened emotional state, even the most basic decisions can seem staggering.

Please feel free to browse our pages to learn more about pre-planning a funeral and grief support, as well as the traditional funeral and cremation services that we have to offer.

It's important to take the time to acknowledge the uniqueness of the deceased: the individuality of their personality, and the uniqueness of their life's path. Not just for them, but for you; it affirms the relationship, and leads to healing after loss. Honoring their life is truly an act of love – for the both of you.
