"You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have striven these many months.

The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you.

I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty, and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full victory."

Please join us for a time of honoring those that we have lost and celebrating their life during this Holiday Season. Pastor Dickie Spargo of City Church in Gastonia will speak. Ricky Collins of Tabernacle Baptist Church will provide us with music. Light Refreshments will be served.

Carothers Funeral Home was opened at Gaston Memorial Park in late December of 2014. This funeral home / cemetery combination facility is the first in the Gaston County area, providing convenience to our client families in the Gastonia community by allowing them to plan all arrangements from one location. The new, attractive, state-of-the-art, full-service facility consists of more than 10,000 square feet and includes accommodations designed to meet the changing needs of families today, including a reception and hospitality space to provide for catering in addition to a chapel, visitation rooms and multimedia capabilities.

Gaston Memorial Park, where beautiful lives will be kept beautiful always, opened in 1946. In addition to traditional ground burial, lawn crypts and garden mausoleums, chapel mausoleums and niches are also offered. Our main entrance is easily recognized by the sparkling pool and fountain. Flowering shrubs surround our refreshing lake, filled with a variety of ducks, found in the center of the park. Families can enjoy the peaceful beauty of the surroundings, while listening to quiet music from the Singing Tower. A Veterans Memorial Wall, festooned with flags and inscribed with names of lost veterans, police, fire and rescue personnel, is centered in the Garden of Honor. Other beautiful and meaningful features accentuate the park and provide comfort to visiting families.

Complete pre-arrangements are available. Located on New Hope Road, Gaston Memorial is the premier cemetery in Gaston County.

All of our services are designed to help our client families through one of the most personal and challenging stages of life. We understand losing a loved one is an emotional and difficult experience, and we are committed to helping our client families with compassionate, professional and personal service.

If you would like a tour of our grounds, please contact one of our family service counselors.
