    Business Overview Interview with Courtney Gallop - President of Gallop Funeral Services

    We would like to remind families that like other life rituals and celebrations such as weddings, bar-mitzvahs, retirement, and anniversaries; funeral ceremonies can represent a significant expense. We believe that decisions for final care should be based on full information and full disclosure of funeral options and prices so each family regardless of their financial position, can fulfill their loved one's final wishes with dignity and honor.

    State and federal laws that oversee the funeral industry require each funeral home to maintain a general price list or GPL. These standardized documents are available from all funeral homes upon request.

    It is designed to be compared with each other by families to evaluate the costs associated with each funeral service option they may be considering. Families are well served to explore their options and preferences with more than one funeral home by carefully comparing each firm's general price list.

    Funeral decisions should be made the same way savvy consumers make other major purchasing decisions. The savings you find could be significant for the same or similar goods and services. The benefit of approaching funeral choices in a comparative manner is that each family has a fair opportunity to select the most fitting tribute to their loved one that is also manageable and realistic for the surviving family members.

    Gallop Funeral Services, Inc. is a fully state licensed funeral establishment and pre-need provider. The funeral director in charge is available around the clock to assist all families. Gallop Funeral Services, Inc. is also an approved transporter for the state medical examiners office and is fully equipped to coordinate funeral arrangements both domestically and internationally.

    The newly remodeled facility is centrally located off the 158 Bypass in Nags Head at 6917 South Croatan Highway at mile post 16.5. The beautifully appointed chapel is designed to accommodate both large and small gatherings in an atmosphere that is elegant yet relaxing and warm yet professional.

    Courtney N. Gallop invites you and your family to visit our funeral home soon to start the educational process, "Bring your price lists and your questions and find out how nice it is to have a choice for funeral care."

      OUR HISTORY

      The Nags Head Chapel and Company Headquarters

      Nags Head Chapel

      Gallop Funeral Services, Inc. was founded in Nags Head, NC in 2006 by licensed North Carolina Funeral Director Courtney N. Gallop. This independent, minority and woman-owned start-up funeral home challenged the existing monopoly firm which had sole control of all funeral care, goods, and services provided in Manteo, the Outer Banks, and Currituck County for nearly 100 years.

      Finally - someone brought competition into the local funeral industry. As a direct result of Gallop Funeral Services, Inc., local families now have choices, options, alternatives, fairer pricing, flexibility, and a higher level of service in funeral care for their loved ones.

      The Barco Memorial Chapel - Currituck

      Barco Chapel

      In 2016, Gallop Memorial Chapel was opened in Barco, NC. The spacious, newly remodeled facility is the first and only funeral service-related business ever to locate in Currituck County. The Barco Gallop Memorial Chapel is conveniently located near the Outer Banks, Moyock and Elizabeth City. The elegant yet relaxing chapel interior is welcoming and comfortable for viewings, family gatherings, funerals, and memorial services. Our Barco chapel is perfectly equipped to serve all faiths and families in the county.

      Courtney Gallop and the staff at Gallop Funeral Services, Inc. are committed to excellence. We continue to improve, grow, invest, and learn in order to provide the highest level of service for all families entrusted to our care.

      Capital Crematory

      Capital Crematory

      In 2011, we built and established Capital Crematory, the first and only crematory ever in Dare County. The crematory supports Gallop Funeral Services and also provides professional cremation services for other funeral homes in the Albemarle area. Having our own local crematory means your loved one's cremation will be handled personally by owners of the funeral home, 100% locally, quickly, and at the best pricing.
