“Thoughtful, professional and dignified. We are extremely grateful for their caring assistance during a very difficult situation.“

“We initiated contact on 21 March 2026, since my husband had Durable Power of Attorney for our hospitalized close friend who had elected palliative care. Teresa Schnur was extremely kind and informative, and made herself available via her cell phone after business hours. After our friend died on April 6, we returned to DeVol and Taleshea Speight gave us a thorough presentation regarding the cremation options. She informed us that a next-of-kin must authorize cremation, which in this case was an estranged sister in another state. Ms. Speight went out of her way to talk the sister through electronically signing the permission form. Ms. Speight was extremely solicitous to the sister. The death certificates were ready days before the expected week, which really helped the process. Ms. Schnur checked in several times over the next few months to see how we were doing emotionally, including an email in June and a voice mail in August. This was five months after our transaction with DeVol. We were extremely impressed with the efficiency and sensitivity of DeVol, which made a difficult situation much more bearable. We would recommend DeVol to anyone!“

“During one of the most difficult times in our family's life, the staff at Dunn & Sons provided exceptional care, compassion, and professionalism while helping us honor my brother. They treated our family with kindness, respect, and dignity every step of the way, making a challenging time a little easier to bear. Their attention to detail and genuine concern for our needs meant so much to us. We are deeply grateful for the outstanding service they provided and highly recommend Dunn & Sons to anyone in need of funeral services.“

“On January 25, 2026 McGuire Funeral Services was the only one to answer our call during that epic snow/ice storm that resulted in SnowCrete 2026. They were professional and compassionate as they handled the cremation process for my mother. I will be forever grateful that they were able to come get my mother from her home in SE DC during that storm because death doesn't care about the weather. ??“

“Very Outstanding Service Would Recommend Your Funeral Home To All My Freinds And Family With The Lost Of Their Love One Thankfully Thankful“

“Horton's Funeral Home took exceptional care of my mother. She looked beautiful and peaceful, like she was simply sleeping. Our family is deeply grateful for the compassionate support and guidance we received from the moment she passed until her burial. While I am incredibly thankful she had insurance, grieving while making these arrangements was overwhelming. I highly recommend pre-planning to spare other families from this added stress during such an emotional time.“

“First I would like to thank over and over and over again David Taylor for his caring spirit, professionalism, knowledge, competence, honesty and ability to help my family thorough out the years (over 25 to be exact)!! The end of 2025 to February of 2026 was a trying time for my family due to several losses (we just couldn't catch a break) but through it all, David Taylor made things a little lighter from the handling of a cremation to the handling of the burials. He has built a trusting and long-lasting rapport with my family!“

“Snead funeral home was a blessing they help from being to end with brother funeral they’re very reasonable with there costs.“

“When my aunt was dying (nine years ago), I decided to also have my mother pre-pay her funeral arrangements. My mother's funeral was held two days ago, and meanwhile I spent a lot of time on the phone three days ago with Joyce's colleague Betsy. As with Mike from nine years ago, Betsy was *very* helpful and pleasant. Also as with my aunt's funeral, Joyce attended my mother's funeral - and again, everything was handled perfectly & sensitively. Joyce is very compassionate, and her colleagues also reflect that.“

“I used Stewart Funeral Home, DC, in May 2025 for services for my husband and from the initial visit (reception) to the last, which was to pick up the death certificates, I have only positive things to report. The staff with whom I interacted--Mr. Lewis, Ms. Jackson, Ms. Rush, and Mr. Bowman--treated me with utmost respect, showed compassion, and were knowledgeable and capable in their respective roles. (I took note that the staff worked as a team.) Whenever I contacted the FH by telephone for any reason, I always received a pleasant greeting and felt valued. The family viewing, services at the church and cemetery all were carried out with dignity and well to my specifications and expectations. I never had to ask one question. or request any change. This was my first time using the services of Stewart Funeral Home and I highly recommend them for a quality, professional, first rate funeral for your loved one.“

“When my mom passed I was going to use a different funeral home but they didn't call me back and I'm glad they didn't the Latney family answered my first call and things went smoothly from that one first call even when I thought I was calling too much Ms Latney assured me I wasn't and told me to relax because everything was going to be okay they had everything under control and they did. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to be treated like a family member and not just a customer.“

“I wish the cemetery sign and Google would correspond with each other. The sign says that they are open until 7 PM but they obviously close at 5 PM. I arrived at 5:08 and the gate was locked unfortunately. This is a beautiful cemetery. I just wish that they could fix the inconsistencies.“

“HS Washington and Son's has always upheld their professionalism, dignity, and respect for the loved one's they have been entrusted to. Several of my immediate in laws have been entrusted to HS Washington & Son's and they have always delivered which is why when my grandad transitioned I NEVER had any reservations on who I was entrusting for the services. Mrs. Foxx is and has always been the Queen of Grace & Elegance that gives you comfort and peace during this emotional time.“
