My Mom passed recently and Travelers Rest Funeral Home was most helpful. Chip Howard helped us through every step of the process. He went the extra mile in taking care of my Mom and all the arrangements. We have worked with other funeral homes in the past, but none have come close to the pleasant experience we had with Travelers Rest Funeral Home and Chip. Thank you so much.

The death of a loved one is not an easy thing thing to go through. I’m so thankful for Chip at Travelers Rest Funeral Home and the compassion he showed me when my aunt (who was like a mother to me) passed away. He was so professional and made a lasting impact on me. He helped me every step of the way and I had so much comfort knowing things were taken care of and my aunt was in good hands. I cannot thank him enough for making a difficult process less stressful and worry free.

Chip walked me through everything for my brother's funeral. While it was a terrible situation, I don't think we could of gotten through it otherwise. Also, their prices were at least $2000 cheaper than other places I looked as well.

I just wanted to write a quick review for anyone who has recently lost a loved one and is looking for somewhere to set up an amazing service. My condolences go out to anyone who has the misfortune of having to search for funeral homes in the first place; However, I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone that may be considering it. The ceremony was beautiful and everyone did their best to make the situation as beautiful as possible while we were mourning the loss of my grandmother. The flowers that were sent to my grandmother following her passing were beautifully placed around the building, and we were able to bring family pictures and set them up wherever we wanted them. There’s plenty of space and the director was extremely kind. I just wanted to write this review to help him and anyone else looking for a nice funeral home out.

Kendall 136 June 03, 2022

We recently had to plan a funeral for my mother-in-law. Chip and John were there for us and helped us plan every detail of the funeral. The viewing and the funeral was so very nice. The last thing a family wants to worry with at a death of a loved one is money. The prices they offer were so affordable and we were able to have enough money left over to buy her a beautiful marker for her grave. Thank you so much Travelers Rest Funeral Home for all your love, support, and guidance during the death of our loved one!

My boyfriend's mother passed away and our lives were shaken. We had no idea what to do and how we were going to afford it. Someone in Andrew's family knew Chip from TRFH, and following her advice we made the best call we could have ever made. Chip walked us through every major decision like he had known us forever. He allowed us to create a service that Wanda, Andrew's mother, would have been proud of. We highly recommend this funeral home. - Stephanie Patton

Chip Howard and Heather made sure to make us feel comfortable, cared for, and completely heard from the first meeting to the final moments after the burial of our mother. Chip was there for everything we could have possibly needed him for and more. He made himself available for anything we wanted or needed with kindness that is rare to come across these days. He accommodated us and our needs at every single turn. I honestly could go on all day about how wonderful these people are, the entire team. It made burying Mama just a little easier to have such kind, compassionate, and talented individuals helping along the way. I was honored to meet the woman who prepared Mama and helped her put some individual last touches (at my request), which was of course honored by Chip. We received calls about every important detail, and were taken care of to the highest degree in every regard. I wish I could express to you how comfortable they made me feel. I will never forget these incredible souls and the extremely hard job they do. Anyway, choose Johnson, you will not regret it.

Mr. Howard has assisted me with a few funerals. He was always caring and patient in dealing with family. I know a lot of people don't like to talk about money when it comes to funerals, but it can matter. Mr. Howard's prices are reasonable and he makes settling things simple. I would definitely use his funeral home if I need to in the future.
