Ronald Taylor II Funeral Home

1722 North Capitol Street Northwest, Washington

Thu Open 24 hours

“When my mother-in-law passed away, my husband and I were organizing a funeral for the very first time, but the team at Ronald Taylor II Funeral Homes guided us through every step with incredible warmth, patience, and grace.

Because we were also holding a service down in North Carolina, Mr. Taylor and his staff liaised seamlessly with Blakely Funeral Home in Monroe, NC, handling all the interstate logistics behind the scenes with complete professionalism.

They listened to every request and honored her memory with total reverence. We are deeply grateful for the peace of mind they gave us and whole-heartedly recommend their services to anyone in the D.C. area.”

Joseph Gawler’s Sons, LLC

5130 Wisconsin Avenue Northwest, Washington

Thu Open 24 hours

“From my initial call with Gawler's seeking information on transporting my sister from the hospital where she passed away along with general information on services offered, Gawler's has been extremely kind and professional during a difficult and confusing time. At every step of the way Alexander Agard answered my many questions thoughtfully and thoroughly so I was better able to understand transportation, cremation, etc... I never worried about the care of my sister has we moved through my own private time with my sister through the development of a beautiful Gathering of Friends and Family/Memorial Service/Reception and then the accompaniment of my sister's casket to the Crematory. Working with Alexander, the Gathering of Friends and Family/Memorial Service/Reception came out to be exactly what my sister would have wanted. Guests are continuing to reach out to me to share how they felt the reflection of my sister and to express the comfort they felt. From remembering details from conversations to see how/if they would fit in somewhere in planning the Gathering of Friends and Family/Memorial Service/Reception, to the review of food and flower options, and the selection of the Celebrant, Alexander thought of every detail to ensure that my sister and I would have the experience we wanted. I save the Memorial Cards and Service Program for separate mention, as I really appreciate the time spent on and the final outcomes of these products - these two items were something I knew early on were really important to me.”

Devol Funeral Home

2222 Wisconsin Avenue Northwest, Washington

“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!”
