My husband passed away on Sept 4, 2021.During this heartbreaking time EVERYONE at Bradshaw Carter showed me the utmost respect and compassion. From his arrival there to his cremation I knew he was safe.When I went to sign the necessary paperwork I felt as if I was sitting in my living room. Clay and Suzy were so kind. They listened to me babble and cry. Onthe day of his cremation I was able tosay my goodbyes. I will always remember everyone there. They truly are the best.

Bradshaw Cater is phenomenal to work with. During such a hard time for my grandmother Tripp Carter made things so easy for her. She can be demanding with lots of questions at times and he handled everything beautifully. He was flexible and always available when she had concerns. He would help ease her concerns and did so so much for her. He went above and beyond. Plus he is an absolute joy to speak with and get to know! If you are looking for services where the customer service leaves you feeling like they are one of the family to help lay your loved one to rest, this is hands down the place! Tripp was so assiduous from start to finish. If you can work with Tripp.. do.. you will not be disappointed. Such a blessing!

My husband passed away suddenly at the age of 54. Clay with Bradshaw Carter helped me with all of the arrangements needed.He made the entire experience smooth, comfortable, easy and sounds crazy but enjoyable.The facility feels homey. The accommodations are spacious and comfortable. For our celebration the staff was wonderful and moved about the crowd filling glasses and making our guest feel so comfortable. Everything was just perfect.I have received so compliments on my husbands Celebration of Life and I only have Clay and everyone at Bradshaw Carter to thank for making this most difficult situation so memorable and beautiful!

Bradshaw Carter is the BEST funeral home. When my father in law passed, they were with me every step of the way. They treated me like family! They paid attention to every detail. He was cremated at their facility and the best part was he never left the safety of the funeral home until his urn was ready to return to us. I felt relieved that I chose this company. The whole staff was courteous and very knowledgeable.I would recommend them to any family that needs their services.

I was so pleased by the compassionate and professional service I received at Bradshaw-Carter following my husband’s passing. Tripp helped me every step of the way making sure all of the details were handled at the service and helping me post announcements in the paper. It was a difficult time made much easier and smoother by people who know exactly what they are doing. I highly recommend them.

After losing my father, I searched far and wide in the Houston area to find the perfect place to lay him to rest. I can honestly say that this was the perfect place. From the wonderful and thoughtful staff to the beautiful ambiance of the funeral home, everything was what I wanted and more. I will recommend this funeral home till the end of my days.

The seventeen year old son of a close friend died recently. The family was devastated. I offered to help with the arrangements and they agreed. I had never done anything like this before. Thankfully, I found Bradshaw Carter. Tripp Carter and his team took care of everything, from the viewing to the church service. The funeral home is warm, inviting and beautiful. Tripp’s tact and taste are impeccable.

Unfortunately, we lost both my in-laws within 9 months. As you can imagine my wife was devastated. Tripp Carter and his staff made it a much more tolerable situation.Tripp handles everything with much grace and privacy. He made our entire family feel we were the most important people in the world. Tripps entire staff were calming during the days that lead up to the memorial services and never left questions unanswered.The day of the memorial services, Tripp made sure every detail was handled the exact way my wife had requested.Thank you Bradshaw Carter for making our difficult time so much easier.

Bradshaw-Carter was an absolute dream to work with. They spent a significant amount of time to understand our needs with our fathers passing. The facility is beatiful and intmate, and the staff were absolutely lovely. My family felt very well taken care of from the planning to the service to the burial. Every experience with Bradshaw-Carter was absolutely top-notch and I would fully and without reservation endorse them to anyone seeking end of life services.

Tripp and Raymond, along with the rest of Bradshaw Carters staff, were absolutely wonderful throughout our entire process. They were so kind and compassionate while helping us navigate through the funeral arrangement process and were always available to answer questions. Grief is hard and I cant imagine how we would have handled it all without them! Highly recommend them!

The facility and staff are the best I have ever worked with. They treated my family with such loving kindness and every detail was taken care of.

After the devastating loss of my father-in-law, we were overwhelmed with grief. Tripp and Clay met us with such empathy and kindness, answering all our questions and providing us with wonderful guidance in all aspects of planning the cremation and the service. They took care of everything, which helped us get through such a difficult time. We loved that we were able to stream the service for out-of-town guests who could not travel. We highly recommend them, they took such good care of all of us.

Dear sir, I wish I could say this was a mistake as you indicated in your reply message but unfortunately such is not the case. I did reach out to your funeral home twice the first person I spoke to was on a Sunday a gentleman by the name of Raymond and then I called back the next day Monday and spoke to a lady named Susie Smock. I attended a large service at your funeral home on Saturday, June 19, 2021, and wanted to share with you some feedback of what we observed and experienced as guests of how unorganized and unprepared things felt. First of all upon arriving we were waiting in line trying to find parking but were instructed that we needed to valet as the parking area you have was not enough for those in attendance. I asked one of the police officers on the street who directed us to the valet where our vehicles would be and he stated either across the street in your parking area which was almost at capacity or at the grocery store parking. We finally got in and could not find any seating in your chapel so we followed the crowd to a living room area where the service was being shown. The two gentleman who seemed to in charge of the service seemed very unorganized one kept coming up and making announcements about moving people and open seats. After they closed the casket the other gentleman climbs behind the casket to close the curtains and adjust them and then later on another lady came back up in what looks like a housekeepers uniform to tug on the curtains again to open them and almost fell over the flowers. Then the same two guys come back after everyone is dismissed and open the casket in the middle of people exiting and moving around. It looked very unorganized and not what I have experienced with other funeral homes like McCoy and Harrison or Troy B. Smith.

Such a peace of mind y’all brought to myself and the way y’all created the environment for so many of my loved ones around me to process the moment in time. Can’t praise or find words to express the job well done. Thank you Carter Bradshaw!

Bradshaw-Carter (no relation to this reviewer) has expertly handled arrangements for several of my familys funerals/burials in the last ten years. Each time, we were incredibly pleased with their sensitivity and professionalism. These good people have become our go-to for all things related to celebrating the life of our departed loved ones.

My mother passed in Houston but was to be buried in Arkansas, which requires a lot of logistics. Tripp Carter took care of everything professionally, quickly, and effectively. He and his staff also know just the right things to say at the time. I highly recommend Bradshaw Carter when you need them!

My father died unexpectedly on July 29th at only 67 years of age. I had no idea how to even begin to set up a funeral, as I was obviously struck with grief and shock. My husband found out about this funeral service company via Google, and gave them a call. They were incredible every step of the way. We had a beautiful service to celebrate my fathers life. They were even able to get a rabbi in short notice to participate in the service and lead the prayers. The most impressive part was that most of my family lives in Brazil, and they were all able to join in via broadcast. They livestream the services, which was very special. My dads brother, cousins, and nephews would not be able to make it to the USA with COVID, so thank goodness for Tripp and his team. My dads friends and family from all over the world, from Brazil to Paris, to New York, could all able to say goodbye to him thanks to the broadcasting service. They did an outstanding job securing the death certificate for me so I could start to handle my dads estate. They were quick, professional, and kind throughout the whole process of retrieving the certificates. I thought that the prices were reasonable, but the price for renting the casket (like over $1,000 I believe) was quite high in my opinion. However, I do not know much about the business, so I just went with it. Still, we are very pleased with the service. Thank you for helping me say goodbye to my dad.

When my mother died, l was ill-prepared for my overwhelming grief and clueless about funeral planning. Warmly welcomed at the door by Tripp Carter, l knew l was home. He gave me an overview of the arrangements, LISTENED to my concerns, walked me through the process, located a very old pre-need policy, and personally provided ivy for the casket arrangement because the florist did not have any. Her grave side funeral was everything it could have been, honoring her life and comforting family and friends, much to the credit of Tripp. He is a many faceted person: supremely knowledgeable, preceptive, understanding, and he is my friend.

I would strongly recommend Bradshaw-Carter as it is a wonderful place for loved ones who have passed on. The personalized services are second to none as they have staff on hand who are both compassionate and caring. They assisted me with both of my parents and I was extremely happy with the services and care. Tripp and his staff and second to none as they are with you to guide you through those tough moments.

Clay at Bradshaw-Carter took care of our every need! During what can be such a difficult time, he made the process easy and made sure everything was seamless from our side. It was a beautiful send-off for our loved one.

Our family will always be grateful to the team at Bradshaw-Carter for the caring and support they provided following my father’s passing. During a most difficult time, when everyone we normally rely on was heartbroken too, their professionalism and compassion lifted a burden and allowed us to focus on grieving his loss and celebrating his life. Their facilities and services are comprehensive and state-of-the-art (on-site crematory, live-streaming services), but have the feeling of being welcomed into a beautiful home. Bradshaw-Carter provides a service we never wanted to think about, but when we needed them, no one could have served us better.

Clay and the team at Bradshaw-Carter were excellent on handling our mothers arrangements on very short notice. She passed on Tuesday morning and I asked to have gathering in their facility on Friday afternoon. By Friday everything was arranged and the entire event proceeded without any organizational, technical, or logistical issues. Truly an outstanding team that I highly recommend based on my experience.

Bradshaw-Carter handled the funerals for both of my parents, one before the Covid pandemic in 2018 and one after this year in 2021. They did a great job in every way. They are kind, compassionate, and make the very difficult choices as easy as possible. They have great relationships with other service providers. They deliver on their promises. When the need arises, i will use them again.

Clay and the rest of the team at Bradshaw Carter did a wonderful job with my uncles funeral. They are true professionals who handled everything with the utmost grace and respect. Thank you all for you compassion and kindness.

This funeral home is beautiful and when we walked it we felt a sense of peace and comfort, like a real home. More importantly the staff provided excellent service and was very kind. Trip and his staff were so caring and friendly to not only our family but also our guests. It is also in a great location with easy parking. During such a difficult time in our life, they made the planning process easy and stress free. They are the best of the best.

I cannot speak highly enough of Bradshaw-Carter. When my father passed away, they made the process of putting him to rest as stress-free as possible (which is hard to do given the nature of the business), even in the middle of the pandemic. Tripp and his staff were incredibly kind, compassionate and caring during an immensely difficult time. Their facility is elegant, impeccably decorated and feels like a home. Tripp guided me through every step of the funeral and burial process and helped me to not feel overwhelmed. He has so many years of experience and it really shows in his knowledge of the process and customs. I felt that I could call him with every little question and he was always there to reassure me and gently guide me in my decisions. Bradshaw-Carters services were truly invaluable and I am forever grateful to have had them involved in the process.

If you are looking for the most comprehensive, caring and custom funeral service provider then you have found it in Bradshaw-Carter. I had need of their services during the height of the Covid epidemic, when transport and facilities were overburdened in an unprecedented way. My experience with Tripp Carter and his staff was beyond what I expected in every way. Their response to any question or request was always immediate. Having a team like Bradshaw-Carter in place when impossible decisions are being made was most reassuring. They are honest and compassionate communicators which made planning less stressful and confusing. We had to delay our service just days before it was to happen because of an illness and Tripp kindly handled everything regarding the postponement and was ready to plan again when the time was right for us.The result was a graveside service that was so perfect and beautiful that it transformed our grief into joy as we celebrated and remembered a beloved family member.

My Mother participated in the planning of her “Final Arrangements”. My brother and I chose Bradshaw Carter, because of their independent business organization. Bradshaw Carter patiently guided us through the many necessary choices. Tripp lovingly helped us through the other decisions needed to complete the process, after my Mother’s death. Tripp and his assistants were able to live-stream my Mother’s graveside service, so that my brother could “be there” while living in the UK, and travel was restricted. Our family was thoroughly pleased with our experience at Bradshaw Carter.

Loved the service and they were very professional. They’ve done a service for my family and they did a great job. Would highly recommend them.

When my mother passed away, Tripp Carter and his team were very empathetic and made the whole experience dignified and left good, satisfying memories. We had a couple of items that were unique to my mothers wishes and the staff accommodated them with no problems. Their professionalism and skill were perfect. My heartfelt thanks Tripp to you and your team.

Bradshaw Carter did my brother-in -laws service recently. I was amazed at the care and professionalism their team had. Because of this Im going to prepare my services before hand. I cant imagine my family and I being in better hands. Outstanding work!

When my mother passed away, the team at Bradshaw Carter really helped me through the process. They really pay attention to detail and genuinely care about the families they serve. I would recomend Bradshaw Carter to ANYONE who needs them.

After we had visited several funeral homes, we arrived at Bradshaw-Carter and instantly knew it was the special place we sought for our beloved fathers memorial service, not only because of the beautiful space, but also because of the exceptional welcome and service we received, especially from Clay Dippel. He spent over 2 hours orientating us through this difficult process, making us comfortable and putting us at ease. He was also very supportive throughout the days preceding the event and we felt he was virtually part of the family during the service, always attentive and caring. They were also very considerate regarding payment, allowing us to take our time and grieve after the ceremony without interruption, until we felt we could take care of financial matters. We feel very blessed and grateful to have found Bradshaw-Carter to help us through a distressing situation and wholeheartedly recommend them to other families and again feel we must highlight Clays exceptional service, he’s a credit to the company.

My mother passed away a few hours prior to the ice storm that shut down Texas, regardless of any planning, things got crazy. Bradshaw Carter (Tripp Carter) was a calming partner and guide in navigating the funeral/burial process and was always ready to lend an empathetic ear while our family was transitioning through a personal loss amplified by the weather and related infrastructure issues. Tripp and his team were through and through professionals and I highly recommend them.

Unfortunately I have had to plan 2 funerals prior to this. And neither were as easy in planning as laying my daughters father to rest.. I can honestly say the love, caring, & tenderness that Suzy, Trip, & the whole staff provided us was so beyond what we could have ever asked for. They knew just how to gently guide us in some areas & went above & beyond in everything. The professionalism along with the caring was above top notch. The home for services was exceptionally beautiful. This is a top notch home that I would recommend to all during their most difficult times.

When my dad passed away, I was referred by a competitor funeral home to check out Bradshaw-Carter and I am SO glad I did. This was the best referral offered. The staff, especially Clay, are extremely helpful, friendly and do an incredible job with making personal connections with the family to put us all at ease in such a stressful time of loss. Thank you for making this easier for us. The facilities, staff, process and ceremony was flawless.

Bradshaw-Carter Memorial & Funeral Services was the best possible choice I could have made for taking care of my husband after his passing on 1/14/21. We were out of town, visiting family at the time when my husband became ill and passed away. I was unsure of where to turn. I called Bradshaw-Carter and spoke with Funeral Director, Clay Dippel. Clay was professional yet compassionate, knowledgeable, efficient and kind. We took care of all of the details by phone. Clay was very aware that I had to return home within a few days. I did not want to wait the several weeks other funeral homes required, then have his remains shipped. In this climate, I did not trust anything so precious being shipped to my home. Clay personally took care of every detail, and I was able to fly home with my husbands remains. In addition to Clay, I had the opportunity to meet/speak with Miss Marty, Mike Knutson and Susie...all very kind and equally professional. I liked the fact that they are a family-owned business and have been for many years. Their dedication shows.At the lowest point in my life, they took care of every detail in the kindest, most professional way. I would recommend them to anyone who needs such services without reservation.Linda P. AbramsLewes, Delaware

Had a great experience with this funeral home! It was our first time having to do a funeral, so we needed guidance on the process. Both Trip and Suzy made sure that we were taken care of and made it an extremely smooth process. We never felt led on or taken advantage of whatsoever, they helped greatly during our time of grieving. What was a definite plus about Bradshaw-Carter was the fact that you have the entire building to yourself, so you are not sharing with other funeral services - you have the entire place dedicated to you and your family. Again, cannot say enough good things about Trip & Suzy. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Bradshaw-Carter to anyone looking for memorial and funeral services. When dealing with the loss of a loved one, your mind is not always clear. But Clay Dippel helped us through all of the details. He was kind, professional and went above and beyond to make this time as easy as possible for us. We truly can not say enough about Clay and Bradshaw-Carter. Their facility is calming, service is top-notch and their honesty and compassion is beyond words. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts!

Bradshaw Carter helped my wife and me through a very difficult time and made a tough process easier to handle. Clay was exemplary in every way, from helping us navigate the process, to making selection on room and casket, to ensuring everything ran smoothly on the day of. He is very meticulous and can explain every detail to you and help you make choices, or you can choose to ask him to handle certain aspects so you can use your time for other things. The prices were also very reasonable. I honestly felt Clay and the team here put us and our loved ones before profit. The actual funeral home is very impressive. It is well thought out and decorated inside. I honestly did not expect that level of decor in Houston. When it was all done, we are so glad we picked Bradshaw Carter and had Clay helping us. Thank you!

Personal, professional and everything you would want or need in a difficult time. Thank you, Tripp!

Tripp and his team are truly caring - so much so that they inspired me to pursue a career in funeral service. I have never before seen a funeral home this beautiful and a team this dedicated to serving one family at a time. Theres a warmth to Bradshaw-Carter because it feels like a home, and they treat everyone who walks through the door like family.

Thank goodness for Bradshaw-Carter! Their staff helped my family through the most difficult time we have endured. I would highly recommend them!

Tripp Carter and his team are professional, reliable, and caring. They gave us all the support we needed in a time of loss and sorrow. They were by our side, and we felt in good hands at all moments.

The recommendation to use Bradshaw-Carter came from a neighbor...... And they were so on point with that one. Tripp Carter was truly a compassionate professional that walked us through the entire process step-by-step. It was especially complicated since we had to ship the deceased out of state. But they made it seem too effortless. Everything was explained perfectly and we had no surprises or extra fees. Funeral Planning is one of those things that can take so much of your time and when you have so many other things to due, not having to worry about the funeral planning is such a relief.Thank you again Tripp Carter and the entire staff at Bradshaw - Carter!!!

Bradshaw-Carter was recommended to us by our pastor during a very difficult time, and I am so glad we followed his recommendation! The entire staff, Tripp in particular, helped walk us through all the decisions the family had to make, and this was done in a very warm and familiar manner. We were all very impressed with the welcoming environment. I highly recommend their services especially when you and your family are going through a difficult time.

Wow, what an incredible team. A funeral home is a very sad place but here with this team you are met with compassion and kindness. Thank you for being there for the community in times of great loss.

After searching for numerous funeral homes, I stumbled upon Bradshaw-Cater. Their attention to detail and their ability to be so empathetic in our time of mourning, I couldn’t have chose a better place. The facility is immaculate and it doesn’t have a feel for a traditional funeral home. Clay was helpful with our requests and he basically took care of everything for us. We just gave him an idea and he ran with it. Clay gave us his 5 star service, from flowers, prayer cards and valet service for our guests. All our guest fell in love with the facility for its uniqueness. Thank you again Clay and Bradshaw - Carter. I couldn’t be any happier with my decision.

Bradshaw Carter organized and conducted a Graveside Burial Service for my mother who passed away in Houston, Texas on the 5th of December 2020. Some of the many elements of her funeral my sister and I had arranged, along with my mother at Bradshaw Carter, some five or six years previously. Due to the current Covid19 Restrictions Tripp Carter suggested that we do a Live Streamed service so that my partner and I, living in the UK, as well as those relations and friends living distantly could attend, virtually.With Tripp’s amazing help we were able to contract an excellent A/V Technician for the Live Streaming, amplification and service recording, write and publish an Obituary for the Houston Chronicle and Bradshaw Carter’s “Tribute” section of its excellent website, prepare a service, have service sheets printed and lovingly, respectfully take care of my mother’s final needs enabling ten of our close relations living in Houston to attend a wonderful service only ten days after my mother’s passing.My sister and I were exceedingly grateful for what turned out to be a very special, inspiring, harmonious and love-filled experience.Below is a copy of the email I sent to Tripp the day after the service:Dear Tripp,A huge thank you for organizing the service for my mother at Glenwood yesterday. I think it was everything Cindy and I (and my mother) could ever have wanted.I know youve done it hundreds of times before but the amount of organization it takes to do something like you did yesterday is daunting and you seemed to do it without any apparent stress and was there for us every step of the way with all the right answers to our questions and an attitude oftrue caring.It was truly wonderful to be able to sit in front of my computer monitor with Richard and watch and hear the whole thing and also to see my cousins and friends attending from other parts of the country. I dont think I missed a thing.With warm regards,Rick Englertps - thank you too, for bringing the throw rugs...Im sure they were appreciated!!

My 2 week old son passed away in May 2020. It broke my heart and soul as my husband and I had to prepare funeral arrangements for him. We interviewed Clay at Bradshaw Carter (as well another funeral home in our area), and immediately felt the difference. Clay is extremely personable, intelligent, and has a great memory. The funeral home is all but a funeral home. It is very comfortable and has many rooms with different themes. We chose the second floor private room for our baby since we only had 7 people in attendance total. They were able to accommodate huge flower arrangements and Clay even delivered the bouquets back to our house afterwards! It was an act of kindness he did not have to do but did because he could. The communication from BC and their associates has been superior. I was never left out of the loop for anything. Clay constantly checked in with us on our plans and never rushed us in any way. Having to bury your own child is the most sorrowful act a parent has to endure, but Clay truly made our experience seamless and easy. He waited outside the room during our service and periodically checked in with us. He was always sensitive and never overbearing. I usually only write reviews for worthy experiences, and this was definitely one of them. If you are contemplating inner Houston funeral homes to help you through your grief of burying a loved one, you should call BC and ask for Clay. If I had to do this all again, I would do it with BC again. Thank you for everything- I am grateful for you guys!

Great service, very attentive to detail and really care about your situation. Really appreciated their patience during our difficult time

Suzy and team made a devastating event manageable and showed great compassion and love at a time it was greatly needed.

It’s very difficult to write a review for the hardest time in one’s life, but Bradshaw Carter did such an exceptional job and were so compassionate to me and my family when my father unexpectedly passed. The entire team, but especially Ryan Hairell went above and beyond to make this an easy process for us. We were so pleased with the funeral home, which actually made for a very comforting venue to hold the service. All the services and vendors provided were excellent, easy to deal with and very classy. I cannot say enough how compassionate Ryan was. He’s a complete professional, very understanding, patient and caring. He had an easy solution for everything we were concerned about and met all of our needs with ease. You can tell it is not just a job for him. My family was very pleased and I know it was everything my father would have wanted.

Tripp Carter and his suburb team at Bradshaw Carter handled my fathers funeral and burial with grace and dignity. I really appreciated the personal guidance and suggestions that made this time of grief a memorable one.Thank you.

When my mother died; I was distraught.She died of a heart attack while she was living with me.She was a famous artist whose pieces are currently featured at The American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore.I didn’t know what to do; so I called Bradshaw Carter.They arrived at my home and called the police to confirm her death.I was devastated; I was an only child.When they arrived they brought a candle. It was a thoughtful, simple gift and very comforting.They created a side show of her works...photographs and memorabilia.Gardenias; her favorite flower filled the room.They arranged for violins and a podium for friends to share their “Grace” stories.There were many.Appetizers were served as well as champagne.Bradshaw Carter made sure it was a celebration of life.I will be eternally grateful for all they did; even starting to help me pick a box for her ashes.They are not encased at Trinity Episcopal Church in Houston.In my will; I have asked for Bradshaw Carter to take care of my remains and mix them with my pets ashes.I don’t know what I would’ve done without them.“WHEN you are old and grey and full of sleep,And nodding by the fire, take down this book,And slowly read, and dream of the soft lookYour eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;“How many loved your moments of glad grace,And loved your beauty with love false or true,But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,And loved the sorrows of your changing face;And bending down beside the glowing bars,Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fledAnd paced upon the mountains overheadAnd hid his face amid a crowd of stars.”-W.B. Yeats

I highly recommend Bradshaw Carter. They are caring and kind at a time when it is needed most. My family has used Bradshaw Carter for over the last 15 years and have come to count on them to be reasonably priced, supportive, accommodating, professional, and helpful with this emotionally hard and stressful time.

They handled my nieces service. Everyone that worked there was extremely friendly, attentive and accommodating to our families needs. The place was beautiful and served us well for a not so happy occasion. It didnt feel as though we were in a funeral home but a family home which under the circumstances, was a bit more comforting. I would definitely recommend Bradshaw-Carter.

Very warm and inviting comfortable feeling the staff was very Professional and helpful.

A death in the family is hard. Hard. To be able to pick up the phone and have someone on the other end who will immediately take your hand to guide you through what happens next and how to get it done -- and do most of the work -- is the best thing a heavy heart could hope for. Thank you, Tripp and the entire team at Bradshaw-Carter, for being there for me and my family.

Everyone at Bradshaw Carter is super friendly and helpful. The entire staff went above and beyond in making sure that my mothers cremation went smoothly. I appreciated their professional demeanor and genuine, heartfelt support during a very emotional time. I highly recommend Bradshaw Carter!

My mothers service was planed and executed perfectly!The entire staff was knowledgeable in all Spirtual and Religion aspects.Also a very beautiful place.

Anne’s memorial service was wonderful and turned out just as I had hoped. When I began this journey to prepare for Anne’s inevitable passing, I called on you without any grasp of what preparations and tasks lay ahead. In the end, everything turned out so well. Thank you for your confident guidance. MJ

Thank you so much for taking care of my beloved husband, I highly recommend them and all the staffs are very friendly and helpful. Thank you so much!

I could not have been more impressed with the way Bradshaw Carters staff helped us with the devastating, and unexpected death of my Mother. They helped us create a beautiful service that she would be proud of. And they made the entire process so easy. We never felt pressured to be up-sold, like other funeral homes in town are known for. I will always recommend Bradshaw Carter to everyone that I know is facing a similar situation! Everyone that attended my Mothers service that had never been to Bradshaw Carter, kept stating how beautiful it was and how nice the staff was.

Very highly recommended Bradshaw-Carter memorial.

Bradshaw-Carter is nothing short of a blessing. My wife and I are so thankful that the owner has made such a beautiful place to lay our Daughter to rest. Our daughter was here for a very short amount of time and we had no idea what to do. Not only did they take care of everything regarding the arrangements with the hospital to the memorial service but they had a way of showing respect to her that I didnt realize a person could show to another person without knowing them. The owner handled our infant childs death with more dignity and respect than I thought humanly possible. The fact that this place is beautiful in every respect goes to show how much the ownership cares about the service they provide to the community. If there was a way to give more stars I would do it in a heart beat.I live in the Oak Forest neighborhood and my first instinct was to call the closest funeral home to our house which is Pat H. Foley & Company. As it turns out they are owned by Dignity Memorial and that company is owned by Service Corporation international. I was bounced around several times over the course of 24 hours and had the social workers at the hospital ask me why my daughter had not been picked up a day after she passed away. While being pushed from call center to call center Katie Dunkel, whos title is Funeral Director, was kind enough (intense sarcasm) to send me a fee schedule which was 10 times the amount of Bradshaw-Carter. This place has nothing to do with respecting the deceased but is set up to take your money and get you out of the way for the next grieving family that can pay their bloated fees.This company and the people they work there are horrible and dont deserve the money that people give them.

I cannot speak highly enough of Bradshaw Carter Memorial and Funeral Services. Twice in 9 months we have turned to them to take care of both parents. Both situations were stressful, heart wrenching and troublesome. Tripp Carter held our hand through the entire process. I have never witnessed more compassion and understanding than what my family experienced with Tripp and his staff. There were so many sensitive situations that our family needed to work around and yet Bradshaw Carter handled each of them above and beyond.Compassion and dignity is what we needed through both these situations and we received it all. Thank you Tripp and give your staff a heartfelt hug from all of us.

I highly recommend Bradshaw Carter Funeral Home. The facility and service are impeccable. Tripp Carter and his staff are courteous, very attentive, and most professional. The location is convenient and parking is easy and accessible.

Tripp and his caring staff has just helped our family through the two worst months ever, as we lost my brother in law and my dad, only weeks apart. I agree with all the other testimonials; I cant imagine finding any group better able to guide and assist those of us who suffer the agony of losing our loved ones. I felt they had my back every step of the way, and their thoughtful suggestions made our events more streamlined, elegant, and personalized than I would have thought possible. Tripp helped us think outside the box, and came up with creative ideas which honored our loved ones and contributed so much to the celebrations of their lives. At the end of it all, I felt I had made new friends, and I will never forget how they were there for me during one of the most difficult times I hope I will ever face. Thanks again from the bottom of my healing heart, Martha

We have attended many services at Bradshaw Carter funeral home as well as having them handle both our parents funeral.Tripp and his staff were not only very professional, but also very sensitive to our needs in dealing with our loss.They treat you like a family,unlike one of the larger well known ones in Houston that just try to drain you dry and play on your emotions.I would strongly recommend Bradshaw Carter.

A family members death is almost never pleasant. The only positive aspect of my grandmothers death was Tripp Carter and his team at Bradshaw Carter. The night she died, I was on the phone with Tripp. I really didnt know what to do, but from that phone call Tripps team started putting a plan into action and they handled everything. None of our requests were a problem for them. The facility is absolutely beautiful, and the teams help made the best out of an awful situation.

I have had two really great experiences with Bradshaw Carter. The first time, a friend’s mother passed away. My friend did not have a lot of funds for a burial service but the owner, Tripp Carter, worked within her budget. He treated my friend with the upmost respect. My friend was so grateful. She commented that her mother didn’t have much in life but she was so happy that she could rest in such a beautiful environment and treated with such respect.The second experience I had was attending a friend of mine’s service. He was beloved by the community at large and it was a huge service. Bradshaw Carter did a great job handling the crowds and putting the service together.

I first encountered Bradshaw-Carter by word of mouth upon the death of my mother. Numerous friends recommended we hold the service there. Upon visiting, and upon meeting Tripp and his staff, my family clearly knew this was the right place. With zero familial experiences regarding funerals, Tripp was patient and thorough in walking us through the decisions that needed to be made, not just the “day of” but throughout, including helpful tips regarding death certificates and other things we would never have thought through without Tripp’s help. Bradshaw-Carter’s customer service went well above what was expected, and based on discussions with others who have used other funeral homes, the experience at Bradshaw-Carter makes all others pale by comparison. While it is unfortunate that my family has now been there several times in the past years, it is a great comfort to know that Tripp and the Bradshaw-Carter family are there to help ease the burden during troubling times. There is no other place we would consider going.

Bradshaw Carter and particularly Tripp Carter made our experience with my husbands premature death as less painful as possible. They are old school yet open and flexible to little nuanced requests we made or to sudden visits by family. I would highly recommend them because at a time like that, you want someone efficient yet warm and with no hassle.

We had an unexpected tragic loss in our family. Bradshaw-Carter staff was kind, supportive, listened, and gave clear details to support our needs.

We held our daughters funeral at Bradshaw-Carter. They were very respectful, courteous, professional and completely guided us through the funeral process with ease, as this was our first time. I would highly recommend them for any services, burial or cremation.

These guys are so kind. They know what they are doing and hold your hand through the whole process. They think of everything.

I have attended several services at Bradshawcarter and they have been exceptional. The service, the people. And the attention to detail is above all others.I always recommend to my family and friends.

For the reviewer with a negative review from a recent service, I would like to provide some further information. (Google wont let me respond to your review, so I have to post a new review). I was one of the people that you observed. The people you saw with name tags at the back of the church are church volunteers, who act as flower guild, alter guild and ushers for a funeral. We are not with the funeral home and any issues should not reflect on the funeral home. We take our volunteer duties seriously and consider it an honor to help families during these services, many of whom are much loved members of our church. If we were disrespectful, I am genuinely sorry, and it certainly was unintentional. Thank you for letting us know this happened, so we can make sure we dont leave other visitors with an unfavorable impression.

Tripp is an excellent funeral director. Extremely competent with great personal rapport. All my guests raved about Bradshaw-Carter and the catering service.

Very professional and nice staff the place was very nice

We could not have asked for a kinder or more professional group of people to help us through the death of our son. From the time we entered through the planning of his memorial service, we knew we had chosen the right place. Thank you to Tripp and everyone at Bradshaw-Carter, for providing such a positive experience for us at a difficult time.

I was not at all impressed with the staff and the laughing going on in the entry of the church during the service. I attended a service at St. John the Divine and this home was in charge. During the service I excused myself to use the ladies room and in the entry area of the church was a group of ladies sitting down next to each other on a bench and two men in suits standing. The ladies were having a full on conversation and laughing. I thought this was very rude and happened to look over at the ladies and noticed a name badge on them. I went back inside of the church for the service and at the end asked the lady on the car valet service who that lady was and explained to her what I had experienced. The valet lady said she was with the funeral team. I have never experienced such inappropriate behavior let alone in the sanctity of a church during a service. That is not the place or time for laughing or conversations and I would expect more from a funeral home.

During a very sad and stressful time in my life, Tripp Carter was there every step of the way to make things go easier for me.

Loved the service. Trip Carter was really good helping us out and everything was organized . The place omg in loved everything old style inside. Recommended

I just had my fathers service there. We had nothing less than the most meaningful funeral service we had hoped for. Not a detail was missed. I would highly recommend Bradshaw Carter for anyone inside the loop looking for the best funeral service in town. This is where to go.

Quality Funeral Home dedicated to serving their community.

Attended a service at Greek Cathedral handled by this funeral company did not feel they had adequate knowledge or staff for the number of guests in attendance. Lots of confusion at end of service as they were trying to exit us from church. Priest had instructed guests to walk up across the front but some were walk down middle aisle as other guest were trying to cross same path. After funeral everyone went to luncheon at church hall and then felt rushed off to cemetery.

Bradshaw-Carter was wonderful - the staff, the facilities, the attention to the smallest details, and the caring considertation of the bereaved - all served to make a difficult experience as stress-free as possible. Flawless service. They have my highest recommendation. Sandy Hanneman

Bradshaw Carter made our soul-crushing day a bit easier with their compassionate service. They were accommodating, available and unobtrusive.

I am a licensed funeral director from NYC. I came across an article written about the funeral home a few years ago online. After reading the article and visiting the website I am in complete awe. The facility is a physical refelection of the detailed service and attention that a family would receive. No man would invest so much energy, passion, money and their life into a building if they did not have an ultimate purpose to what they were trying to do.Without being in the home physically or witnessing a funeral being carried out I can say this is a five star facility. I have written three or four google reviews in my life. I was so impressed as a Funeral Director that I want the public to know Bradshaw - Carter or a Dignity Memorial Provider, there is NO comparison. Human beings that invested their life savings into serving the community at their ultimate time of need or employees collecting a pay check working for corporate concern, what more needs to be said?Its unfortunate that a funeral/funeral home/funeral service is an aspect that is not on the forefront of Ones mind or point of conversation until we require its purpose of existence. To sum it all up for the layman, going to Dignity Memorial is like going to McDonalds when your starving, Bradshaw - Carter is being starving and walking into grandmas house for your favorite home cooked meal......To Trip Carter if I ever make my way down to Houston I would love to meet you. I wish I had the honor of meeting Ron in life. What a visionary, talented and impressive human being he must of been. The photo of his layout I was convinced was fake when I stumbled upon the article and that it was for artistic purposes. The public may not know but this professional does. Kudos to you gentleman providing the unique, awe inspiring dream I could only wish to be a part of. May Bradshaw Carter serve as an eternal monument to Ron Bradshaw. Requiem In Pace.

Very peaceful! Beautiful place!💓

Extremely disruptive to neighboring community. Very disrespectful to everyone around them

We discovered last December that, due to a fatal birth defect, our son Liêm would not be with us long after his birth. We wanted to make arrangements ahead of time. Our team at Texas Children’s Hospital sent us a list of recommended funeral homes and we simply called the first name on the list.My wife and I feel extremely fortunate that we selected Bradshaw-Carter.Tripp Carter quickly replied to us and called personally to explain Bradshaw-Carter’s process and services with a reassuring regard for detail. We encountered this same regard in their warm, organized, and thorough manner of communicating and serving. We also found it in their elegant West Alabama location, which is one of the most memorable interiors in the state of Texas. The chairs a la Château de Malmaison, the boulle cabinet, the Ming porcelain, the Madonna and Child icon fragment, these art objects together form a lasting testament to the late Ron Bradshaw’s vision of softening sorrow with abundant, elegant appeals to all five senses.It all seemed beyond our means before we found they have a tradition of generously underwriting infant funerals. Our decision to carry our son to term was a matter of honoring him and treating him with dignity. Tripp Carter and the Bradshaw-Carter team understood this on a deep level.Behind their care for our family, and families in similar situations, we discerned a deep sense of beauty and charity that put us at ease at every step of the way. We will be forever thankful we had them as dependable partners in a momentous point in our lives. They went above and beyond for Liêm.

No longer owned by Bradshaw family which is a shame, I just found out it was just sold as I was attending a service there and the lady told me that Ron Bradshaws husband sold the place, prices have sky rocketed and the service levels have gone down. Furniture seems old.

Very nice place, attended a nice service here.

Beautiful place and elegant service.

Very unprofessional
