It was not always for a funeral but as family members. I may edit a photo I have and post it. More recently they handled the funeral arrangements for my very best male friend from college. He passed away February 2, 2024. Everything was handled professionally and with modern convenience. You can find more information about them by searching social media. There's a very long interesting history of this historic building where the funeral home is located. You can also find information about each of the owners. If you live in the area and have a need for their services I'm recommending.

Richmond Cemetery…read more Richmond Cemetery is in downtown Richmond, Kentucky. It's a historic cemetery that has been in use for more than 150 years. I always visit when I am in the area. I lived and went to school nearby. I love the old old, very old, areas of the cemetery. The grave markers tell a lot of stories. The tombstones are works of art. I have memories of coming here and sitting around with friends as if it was a park. We had good times in a peaceful atmosphere. The first time I got High with two friends we were sitting on the grass in the middle of the tombstones. Then we laughed and laughed and went to Dairy Queen for Ice Cream Cones. Happy memories of the cemetery. We came back often to escape the regiment like restrictions of the college atmosphere during those days. That's another review. This cemetery started me out on a path of visiting cemeteries that are historic. My daughter must have inherited my passion. We visit cemeteries when we travel together. All thanks to the beauty I saw here in Richmond. The last time I visited here she was with me. You can feel the spirits. Besides the tombstones I love the trees and landscaping. It's just a beautiful place to me. I wish I had photos! The place is well kept. Interment records are available to search on line. I'm not sure what the cost is for burial. I don't live there now and anyway I plan to have a green burial. Really, whatever my daughter decides is fine! I'm not going to know! One thing I know, I'm sure I'm not going to be buried in Richmond!

I should mention that my father passed away on Thanksgiving around 4:00AM, and Grant and Tony were at the house probably 30 minutes after receiving the call, despite the holiday and early hour. Working within the industry, I was impressed with the standard of care Johnson's provided to my dad, and all of the little, extra things they did to show their compassion, to make our time of grief easier, and how they aided in my fathers funeral mass and celebration of life to make it a memorable, healing event. Grant was an exemplary professional, always checking with the family and working with us to ensure that everything was okay, explaining all of our options, guiding us through the process, and making sure everything was to our preference. Their prices were extremely reasonable too for the standard of care provided. I cannot thank Johnson's enough for all they did for us during our time of grief and need, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services.

We were pre- planning both of our funerals. I am writing this unknown to Milward. I am a veteran and Mr. Hardy knew all about what to expect with Camp Nelson funerals. No up-selling just the facts. So pricing was fair and you choose the package that suits your needs. Casket cost seems to have the greatest room for savings if you don't forget that you are going to bury it not drive it around town. Mr. Hardy said he would meet us at any of Milward locations so we chose the North Broadway facility because it had the most caskets on display with pricing and descriptions attached. There are wooden and metal caskets. Research whether a gasket is important and the importance of the thickness (gauge) of metal caskets. It will help you choose a casket. Mr. Hardy was a good person.

Moreover, I have contacted the company from whom Neil Taul states that he has placed the order, and I have been told that no order exists. I am deeply disappointed in this situation, as Taul Funeral Home's facility and staff seems so friendly and professional. The rest of the staff continues to be so, but Neil, who I am told runs four businesses, including Taul Monument Company, will not return my emails or phone calls. I cannot stress enough that my dissatisfaction is with Neil, and Neil only, as this lack of customer service and simple respect falls squarely on his shoulders. Jack

From the very first telephone call, you were speaking with compassionate, caring people who do everything with the highest care, dignity, and professionalism. Because their crematory is on site, they can offer many cremation and burial options that are affordable for everyone When we met with Mr. Noon at their office, he was patient and understanding. He took the time to newer all of our questions and provided helpful suggestions and great wisdom. The entire process was very smooth and no sales pressure at all. Very affordable pricing options. If desired, they have a wide range of service and remembrance options from funeral service options to scattering options. I remembered Care Cremation from a friend who used their services years ago and have no reservations in recommending them 100%.
