Good Afternoon, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation for the exceptional care and service provided by Lee Funeral Home, and in particular, the incredible professionalism and compassion shown by Melanie E. McConnell,  Blaise Collins and Precious K. Owens. They all were absolutely fantastic and truly went above and beyond for my family during one of the most difficult times of our lives. On Friday, August 1st, my mother passed away. As you can imagine, my sister, father, and I were devastated. Losing a loved one is never easy, and in the midst of our grief, we were faced with the overwhelming responsibilities of planning her viewing and funeral. It was an emotional and exhausting time, and like any grieving family, we wanted everything to be perfect to honor her memory. From the moment we connected with  your team everything was perfect especially when we were introduced to Melanie, we knew we were in caring and capable hands. She was not only professional and attentive but also compassionate in a way that truly comforted us. She guided us through every detail with patience and understanding and never made us feel rushed, always ensuring that we felt supported and heard. What stood out most was Melanie's personal touch and genuine care. She didn't treat us like just another family planning a service but she treated us like her own family member.  She anticipated all of our needs before we even expressed them, offered solutions when we felt overwhelmed, and consistently communicated with clarity and warmth. Her calm presence gave us peace of mind when we needed it most. Melanie's attention to details and extremely quick communication responses were extraordinary. From assisting us with all of our questions to ensuring every element of the viewing and funeral was handled flawlessly, she left nothing to chance. She provided us security and kindness that we so desperately needed during this most trying time in our lives. She even went the extra mile to make sure everything was ready ahead of time down to the video's we planned to display during my mother service.  She  lifting a huge weight off our shoulders. Because of her dedication, we were able to focus on saying goodbye to our mother rather than worrying about logistics. This experience has reminded me of the profound impact of true professionalism combined with genuine care, comfort and compassion. Melanie exemplifies what it means to provide world class service with heart, and Lee Funeral Home should be proud to have her on their team.  I would be remiss if I didn't take a moment to share a few words about Blaise Collins and Precious K. Owens. These wonderful ladies welcomed my entire family with open arms, ensuring that in every interaction we felt the warmth, kindness, and genuine care that seem to be hallmarks of Lee Funeral Home. Even beyond the funeral home, Precious showed her heart for once recognizing me in public, she greeted me with a warm smile and kindly asked about my family during this difficult time. That simple gesture meant so much. Blaise Collins, too, never missed an opportunity to extend kindness. At every interaction, she addressed me with such compassion and offered a reassuring word or comforting touch. Together, they embody the true spirit of care and community, and my family and I will never forget the grace and comfort they provided during such a difficult chapter in our lives. On behalf of my entire family, please share our heartfelt thanks with Melanie E. McConnell,  Blaise Collins and Precious K. Owens. and your entire team. During a time when our hearts were heavy, you provided comfort, support, and dignity and for that, we are forever grateful. ( We want to keep our name private) Signed our Family! read more

They forced me to have a closet casket. When I called later just not sure why the close casket the person told me my baby body was perfect. I said perfect while why did u make me have a closet casket funera? I believe organ harvesting has taken place. I did not agree to any organ or skin or eye donations. They also charged me for viewing the body and I never did! Scammers read more

Worst experience on a very sad day. They forgot to add the photo to the cards, her hair was completely wrong! It was wet strait up nothing at all like the picture I sent in she always had bangs, Her face was pulled extremely tight. didn't even look close to the same person. They had someone elses flowers in her viewing room. They sent the wrong SS# in for the death certificates. We had to return the originals to them in order for them to order new ones. Just a nightmare with this place. Did they offer any money back for all the running around we have to do for their mistake or for the horrible hair and make up they did? NO they didn't they said we will make sure this doesn't happen again. That doesn't help us. Will never use them ever again and I will inform others to not use them. read more

We just buried my MIL. Lees funeral home in Clinton MD did a terrible job for this family. First, they didn't make the viewing cards correctly, then somebody else's flowers were on the casket, the viewing was disturbing in that, she didn't look anything like her,(she looked really not great) and they submitted the death certificate incorrectly, which impacts us financially. Kim was the person we dealt with abs nothing went smoothly. Lees incompetence added stress to our already sad situation. It's like they didn't even care at all. ​ read more

The history and professionalism of the Lee Funeral Home deserves special recognition. Since the 1830's, the Lee family has tirelessly served the country and Washington, DC community. The Capitol Hill location oversaw the funeral services of President William McKinley after his assassination in 1901. The crematorium was one of the first on the East Coast. For decades, Charles Belanger was respected in the Chinese community for his expertise until his untimely death in 2002. My mother's funeral service was held there. The Daniel Webster Senate Page Residence now occupies that site on Capitol Hill. The hard work and care shown over the generations will always be appreciated. read more

I witnessed a reckless hearse driver on Woodyard Rd today. They nearly crashed into oncoming traffic, as well as vehicles in another funeral procession. The hearse was going at a high rate of speed, cut off the other procession by driving on the opposite side of the road, and to top it all off there was a body in the back. I'm amazed at how you treat other funerals on the road and how disrespectful you are to surrounding traffic. Not to mention, it was just a hearse no police in front of them. i know for a fact that was highly illegal (and dangerous) and they should be fined by the state. Had they hit me, while driving around the other funeral procession, I could have sued not only them, but the funeral home as well. I have already started the process of reporting this to the proper authorities (state). read more

Seriously? You seriously had ONE job. Starters. The woman I met with had ZERO contact with me after the paperwork was complete ZERO...even when everything went sideways...ZERO CONTACT. Terrible management, awful, disinterested, stonehearted inconsiderate, and incompetent staff. We had a family death in August. We had EVERYTHING pre-planned. They couldn't fit us in until a week after the passing (typically these are done within 3 days or before sundown as warranted by religious beliefs). In addition to having information incorrect and incomplete in the obituary, they managed to get the social security number incorrect on the death certificate. When I called to complain, they informed me that they had the SS# correct in the file and no one seems to know how it got put on the death cert incorrectly. I would like to point out the death cert is a legal document and they couldn't even spell Upper Marlboro correctly....and heaven forbid you get upset. Bunch of dipshits have no business being in this type of business. When a family is already grieving they shouldn't have to also deal with A$$holes who have zero compassion. read more

Terrible. I attended a friend's funeral service recently. As soon as we walked in, a guy leaning on a chair (didn't even stand up) gave us which room we needed to go. Isn't he suppose to wait at the door and direct guests professionally? Then, the song supposed to be played. Unfortunately, no was there to play it. At the end, the funeral director didn't even know my deceased friend's last name This is not a community center. It's a funeral home which provides a closure to family members and friends. Show a little respect to them. Shame. read more

Our 19yo pup Jake passed away 10/16/23. A little furry warrior who battled heart failure, cushings, and a host of other things for over 3 years. Jake loved seaweed, bananas, and sunshine. And we loved him beyond measure. We needed him cremated asap. After calling numerous cremation facilities in NOVA, we came upon Lee Funeral Home in Clinton, MD. We were hesitant at first due to the distance from Northern Va to MD, and per Google, closer to Andrews AFB. After speaking with Kellyn, who was so pleasant and kind, it was firm, Lee it is. When we arrived at Lee's, we learned some very interesting things from the owner. Lee has been in business since 19th Century in the District. But after a fire during the Civil Rights era, Lee had to move the business from DC to its current location in MD. What a fascinating, rich history. When Jake's ashes were ready, we were given a lovely burgundy bag containing the silver urn with the ashes. The urn was sealed so thoughtfully. Also included were a certificate, and a beautiful plaque/frame with Jakes pawprint and a lock of fur. We were blown away, so touched and humbled, we teared up. Such kindness and comfort conveyed, exceeding all expectations. It was perfect. We can't thank Lee enough. In the midst of our sadness, Lee was truly comforting and gracious. God forbid anyone would need a funeral or cremation service. If so, call Lee Funeral Home. With love and regard, The Angeles family. read more

Came here for a funeral the entrance is very dreary at other funeral homes I have attended they usually have some at the door to great you and or open the door. read more

I don't know if this is a new thing ,but I was absolutely appalled by the closing of the casket before the service began today...using a crank to close the casket close to the deceased head...Why could this not have waited till after the service and people have left the room to get into their cars? I also did not think attempting to make so many jokes ,which were not funny, was appropriate. There was a 9 year old who was called out WAY to many times. I think you can do better read more

Lee Funeral Home has been part of our family history for decades. My grandparents, some of my uncles and aunts, and other friends, most recently my father have all passed through their care. Their support and genuine compassion made a challenging time much easier to bear, and their professionalism and willingness to go above and beyond to take care of the families who come to them is amazing. Our family will always appreciate all they have done for us! read more

My family and I are extremely impressed with our experience in working with Lee Funeral Home. From the very first time we called to start making arrangements upon the passing of my beloved father through the day of the funeral and even up to the present, we have felt well cared for. Kelli, our funeral director, has shown us the utmost professionalism and, most importantly, compassion. Along the way, she answered every question with ease and accuracy, taking the time to check and follow up on things as necessary. Joanna helped us immensely as well, as she created a beautiful slideshow for the service on very short notice. She also went out of her way on the night of the viewing to handle our special requests and take care of us. The entire staff is friendly and approachable in person, on the phone, and by email. We never felt pressured in any way; instead, we felt like all the factors that were most important to us were accommodated tastefully and responsibly. Even on the day of the funeral, Kelli and the Lee staff organized everything seamlessly. We didn't have to worry about the logistics too much - instead, we were able to focus on mourning our father because we felt like Kelli had everything else under control. We felt safe with Kelli, that we could trust her - and that was exactly what we needed. The funeral home itself is very appropriate for and well-suited to its purpose. The facility is inviting and well-maintained. It is spacious and accessible, with more than enough parking. We had everything we needed and more, with reliable audio-visual equipment, plenty of seating, and even a lovely, well-appointed breakroom/lounge. In sum, we contacted Lee Funeral Home not knowing what we were doing and feeling extremely lost - but at the most difficult time of our lives, Kelli and Lee helped us start to find our way in the most caring and gracious manner that was well beyond our expectation. Overall, the planning couldn't have gone smoother. All of our needs were anticipated. Please support this local establishment - we would love to see them thrive so they can continue to provide their warm, caring, detail-oriented service to the community for many years to come. We can't thank Kelli and Lee Funeral Home enough, and we give them our highest, most heartfelt recommendation. read more

When making funeral arrangements you should be treated with kindness and respect and that is far from what we experienced from Lee Funeral Home.  A loved one passed away at home and I had to immediately find a funeral home to have him transported. Staff arrived in an unmarked dirty, cluttered van to pick him up. They asked me for a sheet to drape the body as he was carried out on a small stretcher. I was shocked by the condition of the van but was still reeling from the passing of the loved one that I was numb to react. We met with staff two days later after scheduling an appointment.  We arrived and staff greeted us with no mask. The facility also seemed dirty and musty. The funeral director hastily went through some of the options and was annoyed when we asked questions.  He didn't walk through all the options and seemed rushed for us to make a decision. We let him know that this was the first time dealing with this and wanted to walk through all options. He perhaps realized his abrasiveness and stepped outside so we could review options.  After he returned he let us know we could go elsewhere. He asked us to let him know. I felt like I was dealing with a sleazy cars salesman. We immediately began searching for a new funeral home. While scheduling the transfer, another Lee funeral director called and asked what my decision was. After I let her know of my decision she rudely indicated that we needed to pick him up immediately and that the closed at 5pm and hung up. I was upset by this but this confirmed our decision to have him transferred.  At our new funeral home, Jenkins, we were treated with respect and had white glove service from start to finish. What an immense difference in the staff, service and energy.  I did not feel my loved one was safe at Lee. Just stay away and give your loved one the respect they deserve and go elsewhere. read more
