These funeral homes are among the primary sources of obituaries in Asheville, North Carolina. Families typically publish obituaries through funeral home websites or third-party memorial platforms. Because each funeral home uses a different source, finding them often requires checking multiple sites — or using a monitoring service that checks them automatically.
Obituaries are published by funeral homes, newspapers, and online obituary platforms, and there is no single national obituary database. If you're trying to locate an obituary or confirm whether someone has passed away, see our guides on how to find an obituary, how to know if someone died, and how long after death an obituary is posted. You can also review our obituary statistics and publishing guide to understand where obituaries are published and how the process works.

How to Find Obituaries in Asheville
Families in Asheville typically publish obituaries in two ways: on the funeral home’s own website or on a third-party platform (such as Legacy.com or Tribute Archive) that the funeral home uses. The 14 funeral homes listed below serve Asheville and surrounding Buncombe County communities; each may use a different obituary publisher, so there’s no single place to search.
Timing varies: obituaries often appear 24–72 hours after death, once arrangements are confirmed. Some funeral homes post sooner; others later. Checking each site by hand is slow and easy to miss new postings.
ObituaryMonitor tracks obituary pages from all 14 funeral homes in Asheville and sends an instant email alert when a name you’re watching appears — so you don’t have to check multiple sites manually.
