Service typeLook for visitation, funeral, memorial service, graveside service, celebration of life, or private family notes.
Exact venueThe service may be at Cox-Needham, a church, cemetery, or another location. Use the event address on the memorial.
Current timeService times can change. Reopen the obituary before driving, especially during weather or family updates.

Common Reasons People Search This Page
You are trying to attend a service
Open the full obituary, write down each event separately, and check whether the service is at Cox-Needham Funeral Home, a church, a cemetery, or another venue. Then confirm the current time before traveling.
You need official paperwork
An obituary is not a legal death certificate. For banks, insurance, estates, Social Security, or benefits, use the official North Carolina vital-record process or the Register of Deeds office for the county where the death occurred.
Flowers, Costs, Planning and Immediate Need
Do not rely on estimated prices from third-party directory pages. If you need current funeral or cremation pricing, call Cox-Needham and ask for the current General Price List and itemized choices.
- For immediate need, call Cox-Needham directly. Use (336) 368-2233 and be ready with the legal name, place of death, caller relationship, and where the person is currently located.
- For flowers, open the person’s obituary first. Use only the flower or memorial option attached to that individual notice, because family preferences can vary.
- For pricing, ask for written details. The FTC Funeral Rule explains consumer rights related to funeral price information.
- For veterans, check VA benefits early. If the deceased was a veteran, review VA burial and memorial benefits before finalizing memorial details.
North Carolina Death Certificates and Official Records

- Use certified copies for legal tasks. Banks, benefits, insurance, estates, and property matters usually require certified death certificates, not obituary printouts.
