“The team at Fairfax Memorial Park showed extraordinary professionalism, compassion, and grace to support several families walking through tremendous grief.

After visiting with Charlie Mingarez and Cathy Younkin on the needs for this particular service and burial, it was clear that they and the Fairfax team were unquestionably the thoughtful experts we needed.

At every step, Cathy Younkin offered gentle, expert guidance in creating a ceremony that would honor those lost. She handled every detail of the service and burial with the utmost care and sensitivity, ensuring that the service was respectful.

The staff were courteous, attentive, and deeply understanding—offering quiet guidance and support every step of the way. In particular, Cathy’s words during the service were especially moving, bringing comfort to everyone gathered. Her message was heartfelt, reminding all of the strength found in joining together in shared sorrow.

I and others who were affected by this event are forever grateful to the team for their tremendous care.“

“We're grateful to the staff at Mount Castle Funeral Home location in woodbridge for their incredible support. After a recent loss in our family, they were truly amazing and kind. During such a difficult time, they provided immense help. Jeremy, in particular, was compassionate and went above and beyond for us. Facing a loss at this age in life was unimaginable, but the Mount Castle team made the grieving process more bearable.“

“Amazing experience. I went here with my eighth grade for the Washington DC trip. It was a great experience, it was very solemn, but overall it was a very nice experience. If I could go, I would go again.“

“This is an old but very pretty cemetery. The staff are extremely helpful and professional. It took a while but the staff were great at helping my family get grave markers put on our family graves. The staff went above and beyond to help us get what we needed. It is difficult because we live in Texas so we can't just drive over to visit or deal with cemetery staff. The staff have always done everything needed to make sure our family grave site looks its best and remains presentable. My only advice is to communicate openly with the cemetery staff so you get exactly what your are looking for (site, stone, foundation etc.) Thank you Ivy Hill for all you have done for my family and I!!“

As the family of Allen Holland, we can’t express enough gratitude for the level of care, empathy, and professionalism we received during such a difficult time. Gary, Keith, Dennis, and staff were incredibly supportive throughout the entire process, handling everything with the utmost respect and sensitivity.

Dennis and Keith did a remarkable job making Allen look serene and peaceful, which brought us great comfort. Their attention to detail in preparing him allowed us to focus on honoring his memory without any added worry. Gary’s warmth and sincerity made us feel like family, while Keith’s professionalism ensured that every detail was handled perfectly. Dennis’ empathy and kindness gave us the comfort we needed.

They truly went above and beyond to provide not only excellent service, but a genuine sense of care and understanding during this painful time. Thank you, Cunningham Turch Funeral Home, for honoring Allen’s memory with such dignity and respect. We will forever be grateful for your support.

“Working on funeral planning for my Dad on hospice with Billy Jenkins at Miller funeral home. Billy was respectful, kind, honest and professional in helping me make decisions without pressuring me. He didn't try to up sale more items than necessary and kept to my budget. Now that I have Dads preplanning done, I am going to pre plan my cremation soon! I highly recommend Miller Funeral Home.“

“My journey with Jefferson Chapel began when my mother passed away. My brother Andrew had been in touch with the chapel when her hospice journey started. She chose Jefferson Chapel after attending a memorial for my coworker's mother and left notes about her memorial preferences. On the evening she passed, the hospice nurse called Jefferson Chapel to inform them of her passing. The chapel representative asked how long we needed with her before they came to take her body away. They offered to come after four hours, but we requested two hours. Lelia and PJ arrived promptly and, seeing the grief and emotions my sister and I were experiencing, they offered us more time with her. As they carefully wrapped her in a white shroud, I took photographs and videos. Neither Lelia nor PJ stopped me from doing so. They carried her out with great care, making it feel like a funeral procession. They placed her in their van, waited for us to say our goodbyes, and respectfully asked if it was okay to close the hatch door before driving off slowly.
The next morning, my siblings and I met with Felicia, who introduced us to the funeral director, Aaron Charlton. We spent the morning with Aaron, who addressed our questions about my mother's pacemaker, as she was being cremated. He explained the entire process from the time she arrived at their facility until her memorial. Aaron walked us through the viewing, cremation, gathering before the service in their chapel, and the meal afterward. He also counseled me on the sensitivity of approaching a Catholic priest for a service at Jefferson Chapel and the blessing of her ashes. Aaron helped with choosing a personalized urn, flower arrangements, prayer cards, and the service program, including the menu for the meal. At no point did it feel like Aaron was trying to sell us extras; he provided options to ensure a peaceful and tranquil farewell, giving us space and time to make decisions that aligned with her wishes. He even managed the tension and conflict among the siblings.

The next time we saw Aaron, Felicia, and Lelia was at my mother's viewing. The viewing room was set up with a seating area outside where a picture montage of her was playing on a big TV screen. We prayed, cried, and reminisced in peace and privacy. After the hour, we followed Aaron to the crematorium, where my family saw her casket being rolled into the furnace. Her jewelry and rosary had been given to my sister for safekeeping.

During the week, Aaron worked with us to finalize the prayer card, program, and flower arrangements, responding to emails promptly. The memorial link allowed family to send flowers, leave comments, and make donations. This is a wonderful resource and will hopefully be up indefinitely.

On the day of her memorial, Aaron was not able to be present. Abu, the funeral director, along with Tom and Michael, greeted guests at the door, and Liz was in the office. Abu kept track of the family participating in the service and coordinated with the priest, who arrived about ten minutes before the service. The service went smoothly, and family members in Australia, England, Canada, and Pakistan were able to stream it, which was amazing. We received many compliments on the food catered by Jefferson, the custom flower arrangements, and the flowers and plants ordered through the memorial link. The Jefferson Chapel director planned and his team executed my mother's farewell flawlessly, allowing us to participate in the memorial without worrying about anything. Abu gave us a USB drive with the picture montage, her ashes distributed into seven urns, her pacemaker, and allowed us to take the plants and flower arrangements home. We were not rushed out, nor were our guests. We left Jefferson Chapel in peace, knowing her wishes were followed to the letter.

Aaron continues to stay in touch with us, and the service which is on the web link continues to bring us peace.“

“We are so thankful to the staff and Michael Turch for being so helpful, respectful and kind during this trying time of our beloved mother's passing.
Michael was very helpful and kept us updated on the proceedings. Since we had to transfer the ashes internationally, he was able to in record time and get the paperwork we needed to apostille the certificate to be able to make the transfer. A welcome relief for us that we fid not have to worry about documents during this sorrowful period.
I would recomend Northern Virginia Burial and Cremation Society anytime.
Thank you to Michael Turch and staff for making this difficult process as smooth as possible.“

“When the Federal government was shut down due to inclement weather conditions, the staff helped us perform the jannaz rites. The cemetery was a icy mud rink. Alhumdullilah, I am grateful. Sister Donna helped us wash the body. She is meticulous. Sweet and gentle. Brother Bilal is a gem of faith. Brother Nasr managed everything for us. And the rest of the crew were deeply respectful“

“Greene Funeral Home made our experience as stress free as I guess one possibly could. It was a lot to loose our mom but from picking her up to keeping us informed and helping us along the way was an experience that we appreciated greatly. Only complaint we have is the dogs they allow to roam through the business. My husband is allergic to dogs and some of us just aren't dog/animal people. I think that should be considered when folks are frequenting the establishment...Other than that, Green Funeral Home is alright with me.“

“Ed and the entire team, you were and are very nice and professional Thank you so much for everything. Your kindness and our nice conversation really helped.“
