Testimonials

On 12/27/2025 Dr. Ra'Shawn D. Flournoy had this to say:
When our beloved Church Mother, Mother Patricia Bell, transitioned from labor to reward, Magnolia Funeral Home stepped in with a level of excellence and compassion that reminded us that ministry doesn’t just happen in pulpits, it happens in how we care for people at their most vulnerable moments. From the first call to the final “amen,” their team operated with sacred intentionality. Every detail mattered. Every question was answered. Every concern was handled with grace. They didn’t simply provide a service, they shepherded us through a season of grief with patience, dignity, and unwavering kindness. Mother Bell was a jewel in our church, and Magnolia Funeral Home made sure she was honored as such. The presentation, the preparation, the atmosphere everything reflected care, class, and compassion. Nothing felt transactional. Everything felt personal. We are profoundly grateful for the way Magnolia Funeral Home stood with our church family during this time. They didn’t just handle arrangements, they helped us celebrate a life well-lived. Thank you, Magnolia, for serving with heart, excellence, and humanity.

The people here are simply incredible. Two kind gentleman came to assist us and the first thing they did- walked in, hugged me and offered condolences. It was a simple yet powerful gesture. We met with Vincent to confirm plans. The process was made easy and seemless. They were accommodating and beyond compassionate. Definitely a place to take care of your loved ones and the family grieving. Thank you for your genuine kindness. We are so grateful.

I would like to publicly thank Mr. Vincent for allowing me to take a tour of his facility and ask him questions associated with a class I am taking at my university. He was more than willing to help me and answer any questions I needed answer. He made me feel comfortable and welcome in his facility and we had great conversation. I will forever be grateful for this experience.

On 9/13/2025 Kim Pickens had this to say:
The Magnolia Funeral Home staff did an amazing job. It all started with the Director, Vincent Johnson, before the actual passing of my Godmother, Betty Ervin-Williams. The compassion and level of genuine concern for the family was exemplary. I am forever grateful for the care and attention he and his staff extended during our time of bereavement.🙏🏾

On 7/12/2025 Bonnie Williams had this to say:
Magnolia Funeral Home is a beautiful, modern and clean funeral home. We were very impressed with the facility. Magnolia thought of every detail in the visitation and funeral arrangements for my father-in-law that made this sad occasion doable for us. Vincent and his staff were so caring and compassionate to our family which meant so much to us after the loss of our father /father-in-law/grandfather. Magnolia and its staff exceeded our expectations!!! We highly recommend this establishment! Bonnie Williams Charlotte, NC
