I had to go back to Blakely Funeral Home at 1:00 pm. The funeral service for my late brother in law…read morewas today. Two days in a row at a place I don't particularly care for is a bit nerve wracking. The service itself ( like the perfectly orchestrated visitation yesterday ) was likewise executed to perfection! Each staff member of this place knew their part by heart and it was amazing. A truly gifted pastor named Reverend Tommy Wright delivered the main message. Another lay person also gave an uplifting speech and provided Holy Scripture as his reference. Blakely Funeral Home performed beyond excellent! Of course I highly recommend them in your time of need.

My father passed recently and Blakely Funeral Home cared for all the arrangements. Ashby, the…read moredirector/co-owner, took care of everything and it was beautiful. Everything was orchestrated perfectly from the visitation, to the service to the graveside ceremony and military send-off. I've sadly attended a number of funerals but this ceremony was, by far, the most memorable and flawlessly executed. Ashby is also an accomplished singer as was demonstrated with him singing "Give Me Jesus". Super job. Joel and Linda Buice; Elmira, New York.

I made it a quick trip. I don't like these places one little bit. Very nice furniture was present in every room; nice paintings were on the walls. I signed the book, spoke to the people I knew, and I left! I'm hard pressed to say this place was beautiful because I find nothing attractive about any funeral home! 4 stars are appropriate!

I'm sure there is truth in the old adage that practice makes perfect! During my most recent visit here a very popular person had passed on. Hundreds of friends and family were in attendance! I would tend to think that such a great number would be much harder to manage than a smaller one but they made everything look easy. The staff here is amazing and very interactive with their guest. They show the highest level of compassion for the immediate family. Yes indeed I recommend this place when the need arises!

It's hard for me to describe this place as being beautiful. I drove around the perimeter of Frederick Memorial Gardens today to try and remember where these many people were laid to rest . It's a very large graveyard! I must say that the grass was cut perfectly and many families have placed lovely flower arrangements on the final resting place of their loved ones. Aesthetically; nothing is ugly or lacking here. I can't speak to any financial arrangements going awry as the other reviewer did.
