“Alexander was a wonderful director for my mother's funeral service. He was responsive, available, he listened to our family, and he made gentle suggestions and respected all of our decisions. We felt very cared for, and our visiting family members felt welcomed. The service was meaningful and was a wonderful time of connection...we were able to mourn our mother together and in a way that felt so fitting to her. Alexander never made us feel rushed or pressured into doing anything we didn't want. The facilities felt dignified and comfortable. We are so appreciative to Alexander and everyone from Gawler's who helped us. Thank you.“

“Taylor funeral Home gave my family and I exceptional Service with my father‘s memorial service from the beginning to the end The compassion care and Professionalism was outstanding“

“Great immediate response and follow up with difficult logistics regrading planning. Struggled to get responses to questions about digital services. Still give high marks.“

“I want to express my and my family’s sincere gratitude to you and your staff for the exceptional care and professionalism shown to us during one of the hardest times of our lives. During such a painful time, that level of care meant more to our family than words can fully express.

Our brother, Curtis, passed away a couple of months ago (March 2026), and the way he was prepared was truly wonderful. When we saw him, he looked peaceful and very much like himself; in fact, he looked younger. That meant more to our family than words can fully express. Your attention to detail, compassion, and respect gave us comfort again during a very painful loss.

I also want to apologize for not writing this sooner because this level of care was not a one-time experience. In 2025, you prepared our brother, Derek, with the same professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail, and in 2023, you also did a beautiful job preparing our sister, Karen, in her Redskin gear before she was cremated. All of these times, your work brought comfort to our family, and I regret not taking the time then to acknowledge how much it meant.

Thank you for consistently treating our loved ones with dignity and for helping our family through these difficult moments. My family is deeply grateful for the care and professionalism that Genesis Cremation & Funeral Services has shown us over the years. Each time our family has needed your services, you have gone the extra mile to make sure all of our needs were met without hesitation.

Your kindness and dedication will always be remembered and deeply appreciated.“

“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“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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 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.“

“Our family entrusted R. N. Horton Funeral Services with my father’s homegoing celebration, and we could not have asked for a more beautiful experience. They were also entrusted them with the home going of my grandmother 15+ years ago.

From start to finish, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism, care, and compassion. Mr. Bowling was amazing to work with. He ensured that everything went smoothly and that he was there to support us throughout this difficult process.

The quality of the keepsakes was outstanding, and every detail was customized to perfection. The programs and additional touches were thoughtfully designed and reflected our father’s life so beautifully. Most importantly, my father looked absolutely wonderful.

Laying a loved one to rest is always a difficult task. But, we must also have humility and remember that everyone is working in your loved ones best interest.

Words truly cannot express our family’s gratitude. Thank you for helping make such a difficult time a little more bearable and honoring our father in such a meaningful way.“

“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.“
