Harry H Witzke's Family Funeral Home - Samantha Flanagan and Sherri Collins-Witzke, Owners and Operators

Harry H Witzke's Family Funeral Home

(7 reviews)

I am surprised to see five star reviews on this location. I guess it's just solidifying with me…read morethat the person we had really was inexperienced. We were recommended this establishment by the hospital as a privately owned funeral home. We have never put a funeral together so we're looking for direction. The highlights were they were available 24 seven and tried to answer our questions although the answers were not always correct.However when there was an issue they did try to resolve it immediately. The issues we had were: answers being "whatever you want "which doesn't help when we don't know what we're doing. I've never seen a viewing where they left the room empty with no chairs whatsoever we had to ask and then they put out about 15 chairs. There was only one person at the funeral home during the wake no one greeted the guests at the door or directed them. The day of the funeral our limo driver was a giggly young lady who did not know where she was going. She needed directions to the church and she got lost on the way back from the cemetery. These are things we do not need to think about during a funeral. I hope the young lady who was our "funeral director". understands that she's not directing much when people do not respond to what she is saying everybody stood at the cemetery looking at each other waiting for the next step. It was extremely awkward. I hope with some staff experience and some positive changes that this place will go back to the five star ratings that it's gotten before. Reading the other of reviews I agree that Sherri is extremely professional she is the one we communicated with through email. Our funeral directors name was Samantha. I cannot comment on the price as funerals in general seem extremely expensive I believe that these concerns will be addressed

As we know funerals are and can be a very emotional time. With that being said Sherri and her…read moreassociates made everyone and everything go with ease, made us feel how much she truly cares. Sherri is a compassionate person and my family and I truly appreciated their true compassion. My Step Father was ready to be at peace and he finally looked at peace, that's how I can visually remember him thanks to Harry Witzke Funeral home. My family and I thank Sherri and her associates from the bottom of our hearts. They made an emotional time a pleasant experience. Thank you!

Woodlawn Cemetery & Chapel Mausoleum

The owner, John L. Yeatman, does not care about the customers and workers of Woodlawn Cemetery. He…read moreis a deeply arrogant and unpleasant man who lays off the most underpaid employees that have worked for him for years under the guise of "losing money" just to turn around and hire his daughter who just graduated college. When told that the road is full of potholes that get worse every year he will scoff in your face. He's not around to see them or drive over them, so why should he care? I wonder if he would feel the same way if the roads in his Potomac neighborhood looked the same way? Somehow I doubt it. It doesn't take a genius to see that every year the amenities and grounds get worse and worse while the prices get raised by hundreds of dollars (once they raised prices TWICE in the same year). They used to have events around the holidays for the local community and families of the deceased - they no longer do any of that. The sales manager, John Sockriter, is the most incompetent manager I have ever met in my entire life. He would literally sneak out the back door if he heard a customer asking to speak to a manager, letting the underpaid receptionist deal with all of the fall out of his sales teams poor customer service. He also once took home one of the Canadian geese from the cemetery AND ATE IT. Those geese live off of stale white bread and dirt, so that tells you exactly how smart he is. His subordinates have no respect for him because he sits upstairs on his phone all day and hasn't actually sold anything in years. He still brags about being number one in sales in 1995 and his office is covered in sad little "#1 in sales - 1997 third quarter" plaques (lmao). He can't write a contract let alone send a fax from the fax machine. A sales counselor was drinking on the grounds, getting into belligerent arguments with women on the staff and everyone knew about it, including him. He did nothing about it until they realized that counselor was also STEALING FROM CUSTOMERS and only then there were consequences. All three of the white managers are incredibly ignorant and actually quite racist which is very unfortunate considering the main customer demographic is the local Black community. The office manager, the grounds superintendent and sales manager are yes men to the owner and could care less about improving the experience of their clients or subordinates. They are completely out of touch with how their younger employees basically live in poverty if they don't get second AND third jobs. I am all for supporting small businesses but this is not one of them. Instead of investing in the cemetery, the owner uses it to purchase other cemeteries in different states instead of putting that money back into the cemetery. It's sad because it really could be a spectacular historical cemetery for the local community. They are running that cemetery into the ground and they simply don't care. This cemetery exemplifies exactly what is wrong with corporate capitalism today. Short term profits are king and everything else is a second thought. It's so bad that they haven't even been paying for their employees health insurance on time EVEN THOUGH IT STILL GOT DEDUCTED FROM THEIR PAY. When the owner was emailed about this issue he did what he always does - he completely ignored the email. That should tell you everything you need to know about him. 0/10 - I would not recommend this cemetery to my worst enemy.

Zero stays.They took our money but never engraved the stone. Big run around - lady says she is…read morealways busy in Martha Vineyard and will follow up. Ha. wonder what other services people pay for that they really didn't get. Troublesome!

Growing up in Baltimore County, I see change everywhere and not always in the good direction…read more A constant has always been Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens. Meticulous detail to the grounds has always been priority one. It is nice to see high standards kept and continuing on even today.

So This is strange I think.. writing a review for a cemetery, but they deserve their kudos. I…read moreaccompanied a friend who was in desperate need of a final resting place for her father's ashes. I was struck by the sincerity of the staff.. not the usual slickness that is accompanied by questionable sympathy. My friend was never rushed or pressurred.. and the represenative that worked with us was a truly likeable and easygoing guy. I also like that this business donates plots to fallen police and firemen. I will say the office building is quite outdated and a bit run down.. Actually doesn't smell that great.... but that is not why we come. We come for the grounds... which are beautiful and cater to a wide variety of cultures. It is very interesting to see the different ways people memorialize their loved ones, America is a melting pot and so are our funeral/burial customs. The niche here leans way from the mainstream American cemetary... although it certainly isnt too far out of the box. It is nice that they make it clear that they can find a way to honor almost any cultural tradition. They don't have headstones( just in laid markers) ... so all you see is beautiful green punctuated by a few family mausoleums. There is a lake in the middle with swans and ducks.It is placed on some gently sloping hills with some tall old trees. They have several themed gardens.. including a heroes garden, and lovely tranquility garden ( catering to the Asian population) .. as well as several others. Usually cemeteries are such depressing, creepy places.. but this looks like a well maintained park.. The main mausoleum, is quite nice and airy.. It has gone through a few style incarnations over the years.. but it actually works well... i found the building to have a very serene overall effect. I came to be of comfort to a friend, but also ended up finding a place that just might suit my own family one sad day.
