About Us

J.C. Green and Sons Funeral Home began in 1895 as the J.C. Green Furniture and Undertaking Company in Thomasville, North Carolina. Many funeral homes of that era began as furniture companies because the furniture craftsmen also made coffins for burial. Mr. J.C. Green was the first licensed embalmer in Davidson County.

In 1932, the funeral business moved into the Green Family residence on West Main Street in Thomasville, the firm's current location. During this same time, J.C. Green's sons, Robert T. Green and Eugene "Chick" Green joined their family business. Mr. Green turned the business over to his sons in 1941, but remained active until his death.

The J.C. Green Memorial Chapel was added to the residence in 1958 to honor the memory of the deceased founder. This was the first funeral chapel of its kind built in Davidson County. The original home has undergone many renovations and remodeling projects over the years to keep the facilities current and continue to meet the needs of the community.

In 2000, a second location was opened in the Wallburg Community of Winston Salem, providing more convenient service to families in Davidson, Forsyth and western Guilford Counties.

Robert Green Jr., the third generation of the Green family to serve the community, joined the firm in 1980 and currently serves as President. We are the oldest family owned business in Davidson County. We are proud of our service and commitment for over 125 years.
