About Tharp Funeral Home
Tharp Funeral Home & Crematory has proudly served Central Virginia for nearly a century. Our history began in 1933, when founder Glenn Tharp entered funeral service in Bedford, Virginia, serving families there until his retirement in the early 1990s. He passed his tradition of excellence on to his son, Willard D. "Skip" Tharp, and his grandson, Chris Tharp, who have furthered Glenn's vision of providing the highest level of care to families by expanding into the Lynchburg, Smith Mountain Lake, and Madison Heights locations.
