    Albert G Horton Jr Memorial Veterans Cemetery

    The Albert G. Horton Memorial Cemetery is a State Veterans Cemetery on Milners Road in a rural area…read moreof Suffolk. Its 2004 opening provided a military cemetery for the huge military community that chose to retire in Coastal Virginia. The cemetery is one of a number of regional cemeteries run by the Virginia Department of Veterans Services, Eligible Veterans receive one free burial site & USDVA provided outer burial receptions/crypts & headstones. Should a veterans's wife predecease him, the headstone is inscribed with her information facing forward. When the veteran dies his information is inserted on the opposite side and the headstone rotated so his information faces the front, My Uncle had originally planned to be buried at Arlington. After his wife died, the funeral director mentioned Albert Horton. When we left my Uncle asked what I thought. We both had individually felt that it would be a place where we could more easily visit her. We toured the next day. Even the drive down Milners Road is picturesque. The cemetery itself was clean, new and beautifully laid out. The staff was friendly. The decision was made. At that time word of the beautiful Veterans Cemetery had not yet widely spread. She received a convenient plot near the drive through and near a bench. There appeared to be space for burials for many years. That hasn't been the case. The Cemetery filled over the years and has been expanded. When my Uncle died I had my first experience with the Pavilion, which is used to provide a military graveyard service with Honor Guard. It was a moving experience for the man I considered my second father. The Honor Guard was a special final recognition for the retired Naval Commander, buried in his uniform, who had served in WWII, Korean & Vietnam. Albert Horton Veterans Cemetery continues to serve as a valued source for a final resting place for those who have served our country. Wreaths across America places gorgeous holiday wreaths on each grave. The Horton Wreath Society places wreaths on military holidays. Contributions can be made and are encouraged. Whether the burial be a traditional plot with stone, a columbarium or in ground urn, there is no cost for those Veterans who qualify. Thank you to the Virginia Department of Veterans Services. Virginia Veterans Cemeteries are such a valued contribution provided to our Veterans.

At least have the room ready to receive family. Secondly and most important we should have received the death certificate that day. We did not receive it till July 3rd. Somehow incompetent staff, misspelled my daughter's name, copied it right off the paper wrong. Then when they told us it would be ready, it was not. I called and talked to three different people before i was told it was in evidence. So, i asked was she even going to call and let us know. Now mind you it was almost close of business, who checks their email at close of business. But that was her excuse, she had just checked her email. So she told my daughter what piece of ID to bring in to prove who she was, two days later we was told she needed more ID. Why are we trying to prove she is someone that yall made up. We was going through enough emotions trying to bury our loved one. It was the mistake of CC Carter yet the family had to jump through hoops to prove we are not the person yall wrote on the death certificate. Then Mr Carter comes out the car the day of the burial July 7th and states he bent over backwards to get this situation fixed, but you should have sir. it was your companies mistake and not the family. Show some accountability. And lastly you are supposed to be a professional, a pastor so I'm not sure of the mother-in-law joke that brung you such great humor when my daughter and I walked in, and you did it twice. You supposed to be more of healer in such times than a comedian. not Funny that woman is grieving her son as well as we grieving our husband and father. I would never use your services again. Your company is about money and appearance and not the emotions of the families. Well, Mr Carter, here is the review you asked for. It's not the one you wanted, but it's the one you earned!

    Choosing a funeral home to take care of your loved one is not easy. Its stressful, emotional, and…read morethere are time limits to get things taken care of. I chose O.H. Smith for my uncle's services. Well known and respected in the community, they are one of the oldest funeral homes in Newport News. My uncle would be proud to know he was being cared for by his childhood neighbourhood. Available around the clock, we confirmed, they retrieved my uncle from the hospital, and setup a date to discuss details. The options were on a sliding scale rate and had favourable economic options. We chose direct cremation for its affordability. There is an option to have a funeral with the dressed body for viewing followed by cremation, but its more costly. And with no processional. My uncle was a veteran, and they took care of the cemetery arrangements along with scheduling color guard sendoff. When plans to have his memorial at a church fell through, they had the availability for the day we wanted and available minister provided for our service. The entire process, I felt respected and cared for. No matter how many questions, I had some form of an answer provided. Each step I had clear instructions which you need in this kind of event, and they kept me accountable. Mr. Otis and his family are a blessing. We were going to have a keyboardist/singer and was told they have a keyboard they could use. We chose to provide our own music after all. On the day of the memorial, they were "Johnny on the spot" as my mom says. I had nothing to worry about, it truly went smoother than my expectation. They provided the programs and did a fantastic job! We managed to spend shy of an hour for our intimate memorial. The color guards came at the end while TAPS played and presented my cousin the flag (it was a rainy day so no rifle detail). It was such a heartwarming moment. At the end of the memorial, I retrieved my uncles remains as we plan to take him to the cemetery ourselves and O.H. Smith scheduled the appointment to arrive. Overall, from the time they picked him up to the memorial was 18 days (by our own choosing). If we wanted a memorial right after cremation, it could have been a good week on average earlier. I can see now why my family keeps them in mind during a time in need. They are outstanding professional.

My question, can you…read morerecord the service of my mom's funeral for me, her daughter, who lives in California, that was not notified of the service you are having in less than 48 hours? She blew me off, and told me to "contact the funeral home." The funeral home didn't even know you were having a service. This place is shady as hell, keeping information from next of kin and denying me access to my mother's service, for which I was never notified. As bad as it gets. Never would recommend these jerks. Complete and utter failure.

Even after asking, if my mother died before the payment was paid, what would happen. The lady from Peninsula Memorial Park then responded with, that will be ok! You will be making payments! The day after my mother passed, myself and my grieving family came to complete agreement of burial. Upon arrival, they made it known quite frankly the payment plans, now did not matter, which was not what was understood prior. The young man that assisted us was very kind and compassionate. The General Manager named Steve Brown was the complete opposite. We, the grieving family, came with our concerns of this great misunderstanding that was not made clear, and he was extremely disrespectful and told us to just go use some other cemetery. As my mother's wish, she loved this cemetery. So my family and I had to come up with this money for as he told us, we had 24 hours or she would not be buried. Please re-consider doing business with Peninsula Memorial Park. I hope they begin showing the utmost respect by making it clear just what the family will be expected to do and will be getting and great empathy these hurting families need during the hardest time in their lives. They need to find another general manager that actual cares more about people and less about money.
