Parking was plentiful. There was construction going on so we weren't sure where to enter. It would have been nice to have an attendant outside directing. Inside, the place was pin drop quiet, cavernous, dim, pristine and still, as you might expect. A somber funeral director lead us to a guest book to sign in. At the table, a basket containing pocket sized tissues were on hand. Nice touch. I always forget Kleenex. The folks at Woody's were welcoming and necessarily solemn. Our grave expressions were met by sympathetic nods. The chapel was ample enough to fill a grieving crowd. Sadly, my friend's funeral took up just a few pews. Boxes of tissues were at the seats as well. After a stirring, thought provoking Bible based talk, peppered with sweet anecdotes of our friend, the pall bearers lined up. One of the directors hurriedly lead us to our cars for the procession to the burial site. Calm down, what's the rush, my friend wasn't going anywhere. Thus, I was dismayed to find that the lady directing the cars (headlights and flashers on) left our car out and we were in liWe had to take an alternate route to the cemetery and actually got there first, before the procession. Awkward... that could've gone smoother. I'm sure the people here do everything they can to make a sad occasion easier to cope with and provide some solace, but I got a strange suspicion that they were shuffling us out because of another service was heading in. Death waits for no one. I'm not saying I'm looking forward to coming back here ... that, too, would be awkward. Update: After a sincere, respectful and professional response from the manager at Woody's, I've added a star to my review. Their diligence in addressing my concerns shows that they strive for excellence and want to please their patrons. Thank you.

You should be informing people of what you are doing! THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED AND I AM CALLING FOR AN APPOINTMENT TO MAKE THIS RIGHT.

My grandmother passed and Bliley's handled the viewing and transfer to Amelia Veterans Cemetery for the service. I ordered a large standing heart to be displayed at her viewing on their site. When I arrived to the viewing it was not there and I spoke with a young man who seemed unconcerned who suggested I call the florist. I explained that I did not know who the florist was as I had ordered through them. He went to an office and wrote down the phone number of a local florist and said I should call them in the morning. I explained to him that the funeral service was in the morning. All of this concerned me that he seemed to be unaware of as he was standing in front of the room for her viewing where all of this was posted. I was very upset that one side of her casket was bare as the other standing arrangement my cousin ordered was there but my matching one was missing for the viewing but the young man assured me that the florist could get it to the service in the morning. Somehow I knew this was impossible if I was calling them when they opened barely an hour before her funeral. But I still called in the morning and surprise, the florist did not have the order and could not help me. I called Bliley's and spoke with someone and explained what had happened again- they were unaware of the issue from the night before so it was like starting from scratch. They then directed me to an outside company that manages their Tribute Wall and said they would call me back. I contacted the other company who acknowledged that they had taken the payment the week prior but that at this point it was too late to send the arrangement to the funeral. You don't say! They said "I guess we will issue you a refund". I said I guess you'd better. I would like to point out that I was calm and courteous during each of these interactions and only during the viewing when I noticed the missing arrangement was I slightly teary eyed because it was the viewing after all. But not ONCE did anyone from Bliley's or their payment processor apologize or say anything resembling an I'm sorry for ruining your memory of your grandmother's service. Not only did they not apologize, Bliley's staff never called me back or even attempted to make the situation right and have the flowers at the service. For something as important as a memorial service or viewing I won't ever recommend a business that ignores issues and doesn't even try to rectify them. Oh I almost forgot! Because they processed my refund they removed the post that I made when I ordered the arraignment on their Tribute Wall from my kids to their great grandmother.

The moment we reached out to Eric, he made the family and mainly our mother very comfortable on the next steps. My father passed away in November and Eric was knowledgeable and informative on what to expect regarding COVID 19 restrictions.

Eric quickly made a phone call and without missing a beat, our father was buried with Military Honors. The feature of LIVE Streaming as perfect as we had a fair amount of family not able to travel or attend because of COVID. Everyone from the moment my father was picked up from hospice care to the last moment at the cemetery were professional, caring, and kind. Thank you for being here for us during our difficult time.
