About Us

About Our Madison Funeral Home

What Separates us from other funeral homes in Madison County?

1) A Family Funeral Home with a Rich History

Our experience started in 1972, when Robert Capps bought the then named Holcombe Funeral Home and renamed it to Capps Funeral Home. The funeral home moved to its current location in 2002, and it was also renamed to Blue Ridge Funeral & Cremation Service. In 2014, Robert Capps retired, and his son and daughter-in-law, Tim and Katherine Capps, took over ownership to continue the legacy of the family business. 

Since we have been in operation for so long, we have developed a great reputation within the communities of Madison and Buncombe Counties. Our roots and heritage are highly tied into these communities and the residents. 

As a family business, we have really focused on transferring this sense of family into the type of customer of service we provide. We treat each individual like they are a member of our own family. Funeral services are ones that are very personal in nature and require a high level of trust and dependence in the provider. Therefore, we make it a priority to develop a strong relationship with each family that comes to see us. We want to develop a level of trust so that transfers into a service that you feel confident in. 

2) Affordability 

Let’s face it most funeral homes have prices that are scary, overwhelming, and you simply cannot afford them. Most people then turn to cheap providers that are unreliable. We feel if you can't get professional funeral services at affordable prices, you and your family have been done an injustice. That is why we have made it a main priority to make sure our prices are affordable. This work has led us to be recognized as one of the most affordable funeral homes in Madison County.

3) We Take Care of the Entire Process

We take care of the entire funeral arrangement process. We are experts in planning funerals and know every detail that needs to be taken care of. We take the initiative and ensure everything goes to plan; we promise a hassle-free service. Our goal is that you spend as little time as needed in helping us plan the funeral. During this time of loss, your mind will be elsewhere, you will be grieving, and you will want to comfort other family members. Having said that you can get involved in the funeral planning process as much as you want.

4) Consistency

We have trained our staff to provide quality and reliable funeral services for every family that comes to see us. As we mentioned already, we serve every individual as if they were a member of our own family and this means working with compassion and going beyond expectations every time. 

5) A Welcoming Atmosphere

We consider every family that comes to visit us as a guest, and therefore we have ensured that our funeral home is beautiful and provides the necessary amenities. 

6) Attention to Detail

Any type of funeral service involves many components, and therefore to perform a quality service you must be through and have a good attention to detail. We have an entire team that works in unison, and ensures nothing is missed. 

7) A Proud Community Member

We take great pride in being a funeral home in Madison County. The communities of Asheville and Mars Hill have really shaped the culture of our funeral home. Not only do we love meeting new people when they come to our funeral home, but we love getting to know new faces while participating in community events, charities, and organizations.
