I can honestly say that Lauren Spence is an exceptional funeral director. From the very beginning…read moreshe explained every single detail clearly and thoroughly, including costs, taxes, shipping, preparation, urns, and certificates. There was never any backtracking or surprise fees. Lauren is not only professional and precise, she is also a genuinely good and honest person. She showed compassion, empathy, patience, and understanding through the entire process. She was relatable, appropriately funny when it was needed, and even shared some of her own personal struggles, which made her feel genuine and human rather than just someone doing a "job." She made the most difficult time of my life easy and as stress free as possible when it came to, what I thought would be the most stressful part "funeral arrangements". I truly felt that my mother's body was being treated with grace, respect, love and care. Her commitment and service to me and my family left such a deep impression that I have already decided I would want to be brought here myself from Las Vegas when my time comes. Lauren even went beyond her normal hours, reaching out on her days off just to make sure everything was handled perfectly. She is amazing at what she does and she left an everlasting impression that could never be replicated. I am so grateful that God/fate brought me to her knowing that this part of my life would be handled by a true professional with the most exceptional service I've ever had. Greenwood is very fortunate to have someone like her. From the bottom of my heart, Thank you Lauren! -Jake R. & family

My experience Saturday, August 1, 2026 burying my aunt, Mary Jean…read more When we arrived at the gravesite, the workers came up to help get her placed on the lowering device. (The head of the casket was bout 4-5 inches lower than the foot end. NOT level at all) I understand that the section I own in on a hill, but it could have been level. When we were placing her on the lowering device, one of the workers (older gentleman, glasses, gray hair I though he had something on the back of his head like a ponytail, but not for sure) stated "Feet to the street" and I was like what are you talking about, She should be "Head face East" I have never heard of anything like that, and that is should be "Head face East". He raised his voice at me and exclaimed that he has worked in that cemetery over 20 something years and that was the way it was and was gonna be. I was like not today it wont, again I had never heard of that. He walked off mumbling under his voice and drove off on his cart. Another younger guy showed up on a cart and I asked to speak to who ever was in charge. He called Kurt and I explained to him that I was the funeral director, the next of kin and the lot owner and that her facing west was not an option. Kurt stated that there would be no issue with doing that. When we buried her husband in 2013, I was the funeral director on that burial and nothing was said at that time, I was there for the lowering of the casket and we had the casket open for viewing and was lowered without turning the casket around. I have been very emotional over this death, as she was my Aunt (and last of my fathers family) that I have been caring for, for the last 8 years. She was more like a parent to me and to be talked to that way, especially after paying $2,695.00 to have the grave opened for her to be buried there. I own 9 spaces there, and hope that the next burial I have there is nothing like it was on Saturday. After a week sending my concerns to the funeral home, they have not responded. I guess, they do not care the way their employees talk to families.

This was my first time going to a visitation and funeral with Tree of Life Funeral Home Fort Worth…read morelocation and I was not sure what to expect. I was very impressed with the impressed with the way the company handled both the visitation and funeral for a client who I took care of; I was his nurse. The staff was friendly when I went to the visitation. They pointed me into the right place for the visitation. The day of the funeral, the staff and company were professional, on time and very informative. The staff had manners (which I have other funeral homes, and their personalities were not the greatest) and very thorough in their information that they gave us. We followed the family to the Dallas Fort Worth National Cemetary. I was definitely impressed with your company and would recommend it to others. Keep up the great work!!!

We just had my mother-in-law's memorial there. It was a total cluster. She didn't even look like…read moreherself. The makeup job done on her was not done well at all. The acoustics in the Independence chapel were horrible. No one could understand what the speaker was saying. At the end we were told to go to the back to greet everyone but there were two doors. The family should've stayed seated at the front of the chapel and the guests should've been ushered by to greet the family in a row instead of us pushed to the foyer and just a cluster of people standing around. The pamphlet handout that they give out to the guests at the memorial was so tiny. We thought it was going to be a half a sheet of paper not 1/4. It's just unfortunate because this is not something you can redo. There's just little things that should've been done so much better especially her makeup.

In December 2024, I went back to Greenwood -- not to beg for a job, but to speak to HR and explain…read moremy side of how things ended. I asked for the HR rep (either Lawanda or Rowanda), and the second she saw me, she looked like she had a problem with me even showing up. Before I could even speak, she cut me off and said, "The higher-ups don't want to talk to you." That was it. No professionalism. No interest in hearing the truth. No decency. Just a cold dismissal and a look that said, "Why are you even here?" I kept it respectful. I came to speak like an adult. But clearly, once you're no longer useful to Greenwood, you're nothing to them. They don't want to hear what actually happened -- they want silence, obedience, and people who won't speak up. The way HR handled that moment says everything: they were never interested in fairness -- just in covering their tracks. So if you're considering working here, understand this: once they're done with you, you won't get a voice, a chance, or even basic human respect. And they'll make sure of it.

Getting a marker put on my mother's grave has been met with excuses and delays. They have our money…read moreand she is in the ground, we are completely at their mercy. Mom was buried in November '21 she is, as of the beginning of this week she is still in an unmarked grave. We were initially told it would be 6 months for a marker to be made, supply issues etc... The option for a temporary marker was never presented by the Funeral home. As a funeral home, it's is their responsibility to offer, not ours as a grieving family to think to ask. One poor review on another site, 6 months after interrment, and they offer to put a temporary marker out, and tell us it will be another 6 to 8 months to get a stone marker. This would have made my mother have an unmarked grave for 12 to 14 months had we stuck to their timeline. We have decided to use a different company than the funeral home offers to get a headstone. That company told us 6 to 8 weeks, not 6 months. I won't even get into the shenanigans they pulled and threats that had to be made in order for us to get our money back to buy a marker from a different company. No family should have to go through this. Emerald hills really dropped the ball on this one.

Didn't realize until the next day that it is listed on Texas Monthly magazine's Bucket List of 63 Things to do in Texas. (It's number 13, appropriate for a spooky cemetery!). Previous reviewers are correct -- the historical significance and uniqueness of this cemetery has to be seen. Over 130 years in existence. I seek out old cemeteries to photograph headstones. I also seek them out in search of old trees (oaks or anything unusual) so I can collect seed. Abandoned or neglected cemeteries are also a place to look for antique roses. Took several pictures and uploaded them to accompany this review. It was a hot 100 deg F when I visited but will definitely be back for more research.

The larger funeral homes quoted $3000 due upfront. Brown Family creamatory worked with me to care for my mom at a third of the cost. They made me feel at ease with caring for my mom. They kept me updated the whole time while waiting for doctors to finalize medical records. They were concerned about caring for the deceased in a respectful and dignified manner as well as answering any questions. They also have a funeral home on site for other sevices. I would recommend them to any one regarding afterlife care regardless of budget.
