For the past month or so, I have been setting up a plan for a family member. All the dealings with…read morethem have been top notch, straight forward, efficient and respectful. The price could not be beat, being 50 miles from Nashville, after the first 50 miles there was an added $45 to pick up. However, an additional $100 discount was applied, due the fact the deceased was a U.S. Veteran (plus the Fed Gov pays for 3 death certificates if a U.S. Vet). So straight cremation (no viewing or service, or urn), total price, is less than $850 (with 5 extra death certs, 8 in total); with an extra 50 miles to pick up in my home town. Today, because the remains are in Jackson Tn and to save on the extra transportation costs, and they asked if we would like to be transferred to their Medina, TN branch; for the same initial price quoted. So far, I have dealt with: Nathaniel Holman ​, Funeral Director ​with Nashville Cremation Center - 8120 Sawyer Brown Road - Suite 108, Nashville, TN 37221 - Ph. (615) 678-4832 - Fax (615) 645-5835​ : email : nHolman@NashvilleCremationCenter.com

Their "service" for my grandmother was unprofessional and deceitful at the very least. My mother…read morehad asked them to "fix" how my grandmother looked because according to her, she didn't look right. So she's thinking that's the reason they probably retaliated and the following occured. She wanted the obituary to look a certain way, as many I'm sure do. Turns out when we got the obituary, which they wouldn't let us see until it was too late and we couldn't do anything about it at that point by the way, the picture of her in the front was the wrong picture, the quality of the obituary was bad, it seemed like a child typed it out as there were so many mispellings, names typed wrong, it looked like they didn't even try with it, then the worst of all? They literally used AI to GENERATE a picture of her and my grandpa instead of using the actual picture we sent, and put it on there! Like are we serious? At least the other pictures were real even though they weren't what we asked for, but an AI generated image instead of the actual picture? There was no way this was not out of spite. They could've told us if there was an issue with the picture, which there wasn't, or at the very least communicate and discuss with us before going through with something like that. Then I hear from my mom that Mr. Brody is talking about how my grandma looks good and her body and lips are nice etc., like excuse me? Unbelievable, and I don't usually even write reviews but the way y'all did my family...not cool man.

I can't say enough about the caring, compassionate service I have received from Marshall Donnelly…read moreFuneral Home. It was such a comfort to deal with these kind people during this painful time. My husband died in 2008 and MD took care of all the details necessary in preparing him for burial and sending him to Michigan for his funeral there. When we came home, they called to offer chairs, or anything else we might need for our memorial service here. Since then, I've had occasion to request copies of his death certificate, and they've always graciously provided them, once even delivering a copy to my mailbox the same day. Their service really is exceptional.

From 1985 to 2006, this cemetery was used for the indigent, the poorest people in Nashville. The…read moreNashville Social Services Indigent Burial and Cremation Services Program works to bury people in Nashville who desperately need it- either whose bodies go unclaimed, or are Nashville residents who live below the poverty line and do not have the assets or insurance to cover their burial expenses. This cemetery filled maximum capacity in 2006. This was emotionally very hard for me. We arrived just ten minute before a storm hit. The cemetery shares a border with a sewage water treatment plant so their air does not smell great. Nearby is a shooting range, so as you are hear, you will hear gunshots in the background. Then as you walk through and see the rows of "John Doe"s, "Jane Doe"s, and "Unnamed Infant"s, its overwhelming and sad. In looking to feel haunted, this absolutely had an emotional pull that stayed with me for a few days.
