Since…read moreI had never planned a funeral before, I was truly grateful for the guidance, patience, and support the staff at Grace Funeral Home provided. They helped us through every step with care. I pray God blesses you and your loved ones with many years together, but if you ever need a funeral home that will treat your loved one like family, I sincerely recommend Grace Funeral Home.

This is a bit long but please read to the end: In 2012, I…read morelost my youngest sister. Her homecoming and final resting place was entrusted to Grace Funeral Home in the care of Vincent Brown, Vanassa Cooper and their staff. They provided an exceptional, memorable service. Fast forward to 2015. Due to my mother's decline in her health, I relocated her from her home in Miami, Fl to MD where I was to take care of her. My mom's only request was when she passed, I get her back to Miami and have Grace take care of her and get her to Vista Memorial Gardens where my sister was laid to rest. As I saw my mom decline, all I could think about was how I was going to get her back to Miami in the event she passed away unexpectedly. Although I kept it in the back of my mind, it wasn't a priority as her health and quality of life was at the forefront. Over the last three years, her health declined demanding round the clock care. At some point, I knew I had to keep my promise to my mom to get her back to Miami in the event of her passing. I reached out to Mr. Brown, he assured me that everything would be okay, he would take me through the process, "it'll be okay!" We started the process of getting the paperwork done. Unfortunately, within a matter of a few weeks, my mom rapidly declined. On October 1, 2023, my mother passed away peacefully at home in NC. I immediately contacted Mr. Brown. From the moment I reached out to Mr Brown, he kept his word and made the process seem seamless. Since he took care of everything in the background, I was able to focus on getting to Miami and grieve without having to worry about her arrangements. At some point, I started working with Ms Cooper to provide her with what was needed for my mom, clothing, etc..... She is one of the most kind, loving and personable people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. She made me feel like she was part of the family and wanted nothing but the best for mom. She will forever be my sister-friend! Upon my arrival to the funeral home for the service, I was greeted by Kevin and Bill. Kevin guided me to my mom to view her for approval prior to family and guest arriving. Not only did they capture mom's natural beauty but they laid her to rest so beautifully, she looked like she was sleeping not overly made up. She just looked like herself. As the service was coming to an end, suddenly an angelic, amazing, beautiful sound came out of nowhere and my God, let me tell you, as I lifted my head up and saw that Bill was kind enough to bless us with a song, it felt like the heavy feeling in the room was lightened. I had to keep myself from begging him to keep singing. While I knew I'd done the right thing by getting mom home and entrusting Grace, at that very moment, it solidified that mom, me and my family were right where we were supposed to be. As we left the funeral home to head to the cemetery, I had the pleasure of having a moment with Kevin. His words of comfort, warmth and genuine demeanor gave me the peace of mind not even my family could've given me. I could go on and on about the exceptional service and experience they provided but I'd be at a loss for words. From the owner to whoever maintains the facility and its grounds, that had anything to do with getting my mom to her final resting place, I am eternally grateful and appreciate them handling her with dignity, respect, compassion and GRACE! At no point did I feel like I was dealing with a business rather than a family that was there during my most difficult time of need. I wish I could give them more stars but there would never be enough to truly capture the quality of the service they provide. I am grateful and humble to have worked with them! I know mom is looking from the heavens with my sister saying "well done!"

The funeral and admin staff was compassionate and professional. They worked with me since day 1 and helped me along the way when it came to funeral arrangements. THANK YOU! BTW, the building is art deco since it was built in the 1930s, and it's part of Miami history. It's an old bldg but it's modernize and well maintained. They have a small kitchen to prep food and drinks for guests. They have a decent size parking lot on site behind the building. There is street parking on the same block but not in front of the bldg. I highly recommend this place!

A BIG THANK YOU to the staff at Vans Orsdel at the Midtown location!…read moreI cannot say enough how pleased and extremely satisfied I was with the location, ambiance and to Randy, Bruce, Joanne and Frank. I loved the little chapel and the beautiful furniture. The staff were very helpful from setting up the refreshment to making sure that everyone signed the memorial book and grabbed a picture of my mom on the way out. They were very accommodating! A special shout out to David Gonzalez the director at the Coral Gables location. You made the transition of my mom so comfortable and soothing with your voice. I highly recommend Van Orsdel!

Despite full payment and the expectation of professional coordination, the funeral procession on June 27 ended in a traumatic failure when the cemetery was found completely unprepared to receive her remains. Instead of taking responsibility for this egregious lapse in communication and planning, the mortuary disclaimed all duty, baselessly asserting that coordinating cemetery readiness was the family's responsibility. We were never informed of this, nor should we have been; we relied on the mortuary's professional oversight. The resulting delay and the necessity of returning my mother's remains to the funeral home caused our family immense shock and distress. There has been no apology or accountability for this breach of care, which deeply violated the dignity of our final goodbye. I cannot recommend a business that fails so fundamentally in its duty to grieving families."
