It the worst customer service especially from Maria Garcia very rude she wouldn't answer calls or texts in many occasions I ask her if she could provide me with a copy of the contract of service of my father funeral service and she have refused saying that I wasn't the one who paid for the expense. Being the only child I have the right to have this documentation but she making everything so difficult. Unprofessional- Maria block my number because it goes directly to voicemail I had to use different numbers to get in touch with her. I will not recommend this funeral home to anyone !!

If you're also oddly inspired by cemeteries, you hit the jackpot with Rock Creek Cemetery. Not only…read moreif this cemetery sizeable and with many gems inside, it's next door to another equally interesting cemetery- Soldiers Home Cemetery. Both are located in the Northeast neighborhood of Fort Totten close to several restaurants, parks, and even breweries. As you walk through the main gate, you'll read a sign that notes the cemetery was established in 1887. However, its story begins in 1719 when Maryland was under British rule. The cemetery was in the churchyard of St. Paul's Episcopal Church. When the British left, the area became part of D.C., and years later, it became Rock Creek Cemetery. The cemetery itself has well-kept paths through the property. There are thousands of gravestones, mausoleums, and sculptures. There's also a chapel in the center of the property. The cemetery houses not only politicians but also athletes, writers, journalists, etc. One of the best-hidden gems inside is the Adams Memorial in honor of a photographer. You'll know you stumbled upon it when you see a circle of well-kept bushes. There's a small path leading inside to the eerie memorial.

About as sensitive as an impacted wisdom tooth…read more We used this place recently when my mother-in-law passed away and while clearly, we won't be in a position to use them again, I would warn off someone also looking to handle the passing of a loved one unless your a devotee of Marx, Groucho not Karl. We were supposed to form up in a set aside space outside a cemetery to drive in. I was the first to arrive and parked a little behind the designated sign and waited. A little while later the hearse pulled up and parked in front of me. I walked up to make sure it was for my mother-in-law and was told "you're gonna have to move back" apparently although we were in a lane set aside for this and clearly with enough space, she'd parked there, she wanted to be next to the sign, not a car length in front of it. Beyond the no obvious need for this, it was said in harsh tones without any expression of sympathy to what was clearly a part of the grieving family and delivered with all the solicitude of a waitress in a greasy spoon asking "what do ya want?" It went downhill from there. Almost literally. As the service provided a driver for the hearse and that was it. They did not supply pall barers so the grieving family was suddenly called up to manhandle the casket from the hearse to the grave side with no warning or training beyond -"grab hold and pull." As people stumbled, literally under the load and one person tripped over the edge of the open grave I had visions of someone precipitating my mother-in-law into the ground. Mouring families are in no shape to think out things like this, they, thankfully, do not have experience in this. It literally is this place's business to think of things like that "Will you need pall barers?" And failing to do so shows exactly how badly run it is.

USE SOMEONE ELSE -so you don't have to add watching the funeral home to the list of things to do…read moreduring a tragic time. We used McQuire Funeral Home for my mothers cremation. We had a memorial service elsewhere, so this was to be the only service provided. They offered a 3rd party for the programs and to place the obituary ad in the Washington Post. When we got the funeral program I immediately noticed McQuire had added their logo to the program w/out asking. It just showed up in the 1st round shared w/ us by the printer. I thought that was tacky but was able to have that removed. I should have taken this as a sign. We sent them the final copy of the obituary and the almost $700 for the fee to the Washington Post. However, this time we were not able to see/approve the obit before it was printed. I can't put into words the disgust I felt when I saw the funeral home had added "Funeral services at McQuire" to the final obituary. Besides the fact that we weren't asked if this was ok, it wasn't true. It would have been misleading for anyone looking for information about the memorial. This is greedy and shameful. They offered my father $16 as compensation for the pain their greed caused during the darkest time of our lives and for something that can't be fixed. To further confirm the integrity of this place, I'd like to add that we considered using them for limo services but their fee of $675 for a 9 seat car was over $200 more then the other estimates received. The last thing you want to be worried about when you lose a love one is being taken advantage of the funeral home. Try whichever other one that pops up in this screen instead. Your chances of not adding pain on top of pain will be better.

Turner. Our family was treated with tender loving care from the first phone call concerning our dad until the completion of service! Mr. Latney, his sister and, staff were responsive, timely, hospitable and professional. They answered every question that we presented to them. The embalming of my father was beautiful. Visually it was as if he were asleep. They arrived early to our home in Fredericksburg, VA the morning of the service and made sure we were given the best comfort until we returned to the church for the closing Repast services. Latney's Funeral Home has been around for many, many years and we've always been pleased with this company. Your kindness will not be forgotten.
