I want to give a huge shout out and thanks to the team at Davis-Watkins Funeral Home in Ft Walton…read moreBeach, Florida. My mothers health crisis, and death was extremely unexpected and when I arrived at the funeral home, I was treated with the utmost respect by the staff. Justin, Malachi, etc we're all consummate professionals from the very beginning. Like many people that are confronted by the untimely decisions that come with an unexpected death..I was a bit emotional at the time everything transpired when I arrived at their business. They took the time to explain every decision to me, make sure I understood everything that I was signing, and helped me along with one of my friends pick out the stationary, the vault, casket, organize the services, etc. They and their staff were constantly available to answer any and ALL questions I had which took a huge amount of stress off of my shoulders. It was also extremely convenient how I was able to upload the selections of the songs that were played in rotation at the memorial, as well as the pictures on the website for the chapel services. After the graveside service by my moms chosen pastor they remained in contact to answer other questions that I had regarding followups about the death certificates as well. In addition, they worked to get the funeral done in a professional expedient manner despite the fact that it was a holiday weekend. They actually called Beal Memorial cemetery ahead of time - to make sure that the manager was on staff so I could set up everything there. I made it there with an hour to spare! If I could give both them and their staff 10 STARS I would.

After not being able to reach my brother by phone for 5 days, I requested help from his local…read moreSheriff department. They informed me that his landlord had found him, deceased, a few weeks earlier. This was crushing news. My brother's body had been sent to Peavy Funeral Home, cremated and stored for some time period (to see if anyone would come forward). I was very relieved to know that I could, at least, have his ashes. I asked what the cost would be to have them shipped, expecting around $100. The funeral director spouted off something around $3,500. I was shocked and confused. He explained that I would have to pay for the cremation, storage and shipping of my brother's remains. "What happens if I can't afford that?" He informed me that the remains would be disposed of and that the county would pay his fee. I am a schoolteacher on a very tight budget. It saddens me greatly that I have no right to my family member's ashes, unless I can buy them for an exorbitant amount of money.

I called the phone number and found it had been sold to McDonald Family Funeral. I spoke to Keaton McDonald and he told me he would see if he had any record of a prepayment and call me back. I didn't have much hope since it was arranged with a previous owner so long ago. He called me back and confirmed the prepayment. He coordinated with the local funeral home in Central Florida and was so helpful to us at a very sad time. This type of professionalism and customer service is rare these days and we are so grateful for his help.
