They did so many things wrong it's sad. We buried our mother at Morrisette and it was night and day. they put together a beautiful video, the only pictures they used in my brother's were the picture I uploaded tot he site. So the video is just a joke, just some pictures and their background. The pamphlet, terrible. There was one shorter gentleman there, with white hair and he was wonderful. I've personally had to plan 6 funerals at different places and I've never written a bad review on any of them. Dignity owns them, which is just one name under a much larger company. Before you use them make sure they know the succession of next of kin. But when it was time for someone to lay down a credit card they didn't mind that. His children were there and they ignored them and deferred to a sibling (which I am as well). The chapel was great, plenty of room and was clean. The rest I stop there. If you choose them be certain to choose wisely and make it clear that by law the person paying has the rights in the funeral. I'm really quite annoyed and when I approached both the cemetery and funeral home (both Dignity) they refused to help me. Maybe they will help when a lawyer is involved, I have no idea.

Oakwood Cemetery in Richmond, Virginia is estimated to contain the remains of as many as 17,000…read moreConfederate soldiers. During the early months of the war, it was determined that a cemetery needed to be established for the burial of the large numbers of military casualties inflicted by the battles around the Confederate capital. Nearly all of the Confederate dead buried at Oakwood came from the hospitals and camps at the eastern end of Richmond. Men who died at Chimborazo and Howard's Grove hospitals almost always went to Oakwood. The majority of soldiers buried at Oakwood received an individual grave, although during certain periods--they were stacked. Most of the graves with multiple burials contain only two men. There are a very few known instances of 3-5 men in one grave. A South Carolina soldier witnessed the burial process at Oakwood in 1862 and took the time to write about it. "The hearse comes along with its load of corpses and on the brink of each grave it deposited a coffin on which is placarded the name, company and regiment of the soldier whose remains it contained. No vault was dug, the coffin was lowered into this ditch-like grave and without ceremony the dirt was shoved in, and a small board bearing the number of the grave was placed at the head...."

I would NEVER do business with Chile's funeral home and I don't recommend anyone else to neither…read more This was MY first time ever having to bury anyone. I did advise O P Chiles of this which he never acknowledged and I should've ended things there. He proceeded to only ask about the funding and kept pushing the payment due date ahead. In the contract it stated funds were due within 48 hours of service and when I asked him about this, he pushed the date back and stated "Just in case you want to make any changes." I said ok, so then once he printed out the payment contract, he pushed it up another day, so now he would've been getting paid almost a week before the services. He was very insensitive when I called to advise him we were having financial difficulties and stated to me "Didn't you think about that before you met with me yesterday?."Our circumstances changed and he was very rude about it. He also stated to me verbatim "If you don't want to work with me, you don't have to. He is such a nasty person for no reason. He lead me to believe my loved one's body was in his possession, which I didn't know a release form had to be signed, because as I stated, I was new to this and he didn't explain anything and was just worried about the money. I lost my only sibling and I initially went here for them to take care of my loved one, but I'm glad things went the way they did and we went with another funeral home.

Tour started at the entrance and we went to notable spots. We were only 7 in the tour. Our tour guide Doug who has been doing it for 14 seasons was very knowledgeable. He shared interesting facts, architectural/art styles, history of people and places/Richmond. We saw the iron dog, graves of the 2 US presidents (John Monroe's Tomb and John Tyler's Monument), Lewis Ginter Mausoleum, Palmer Chapel Mausoleum (and the overlooks on its sides), among others. It was a nice tour. I learned a lot. If you plan to go there on your own, there's a map from the website that you can download and use where there are markers for the notable spots. Google Maps does not have these spots in it. The restroom can be found on the left shortly after entering the cemetery. Lewis Ginter Mausoleum shows Victorian era architecture. When you peek through the door, you would see the nice Tiffany glass artwork behind. With its history, nice views overlooking the James River, the peaceful and quiet environment, this is a place worth checking out.
