The funeral home occupies a purpose-built location at 659 East Greenwich Avenue designed to accommodate multiple service configurations.

Carpenter-Jenks Funeral Home & Crematory has operated from its West Warwick location since 1914, making it one of Rhode Island's longest-serving funeral establishments. The facility combines historic roots with modern capabilities, including an on-site crematory that eliminates third-party transfers. Their staff emphasizes personalized ceremonies over standardized services, working with families to create tributes that reflect individual life stories rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.
The funeral home positions itself around four pillars: personalized services, advance planning capabilities, facility quality, and staff accessibility. Their online arrangement system allows families to begin planning remotely, while their physical location at 659 East Greenwich Avenue serves as the central gathering point for services. The business maintains an active Facebook presence and partners with Barrett & Cotter Funeral Home as part of a broader network.
