Funeral and Cremation Services for Smyrna Families
When a Smyrna family loses someone they love, they deserve a funeral home that understands both their community and their needs. Noe Funeral Service offers full traditional funeral services, including visitation, a formal funeral service, and burial coordination at partner cemeteries throughout the Down East area. As the only fully family-owned and managed funeral home in Carteret County, we are also glad to arrange a simple, dignified graveside service at the cemetery your family chooses.
We also welcome families who are still deciding between burial and cremation. Every arrangement can be personalized with a tribute video, printed keepsakes, or a live-streamed service for relatives who cannot travel to Beaufort. For Smyrna's many watermen and fishing families, we also offer a maritime ocean funeral, a casketed service at sea, or scattering of cremated remains along the coastal waters our families have called home for generations.
Veterans in Smyrna and throughout Down East are honored with military funeral honors and assistance completing VA benefits paperwork, so families are not left to navigate that process alone. Whatever the arrangement, our team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for immediate need and pre-planning alike.
