She really helped put my shell-shocked mother at ease and she personally attended the burial. She also helped protect my mother from DD214 military record scams that charged ridiculous fees. We chose to provide our own casket from Costco because it was much cheaper and life insurance had not paid out yet and the government auto-withdrew 3 months of my dad's payments out of their bank account regardless of death date. Nicole and staff were very accommodating for our outside vendors and I appreciate them seeing us as humans and not just cash cows. They really do provide dignity and respect when you need it the most. *The body pick up team from our home, however, was not so great. I understand it is an on-call position at weird hours, but workers should be long-term partnered up with matching communication styles and balanced lifting abilities. My husband should not have had to step in to prevent an accident on the stairs. It seemed like it was this team's first time ever doing this job or working together and more training was needed.

My husband retired military and a date was to be determined by Arlington Cemetery for his burial. It was four and 1/2 months waiting for the burial, but Brandon was on top of every detail throughout every process. It will be 1 year next month since his burial. Demaine in Springfield helped me so much at one of the hardest times of my life. Patty was also caring and compassionate from the very first call when my husband passed. I highly recommend the care of Brandon and Patty if you are ever in need. I will never forget the comfort that I felt knowing Brandon was taking care of everything. Reach out to them and you will experience true compassion when you need it most.

When we found out that he would be buried instead of in a niche, we decided to provide his ashes more protection against the elements.

She then transferred his remains into his new and beautiful resting place. While no one ever wants to have to visit a funeral home, it's inevitable and we will pick Advent again!

First for my Mom's cremation and memorial early in the year and second for my Dad's recent cremation and supporting us with the documents we need to travel with his and my Mom's ashes. It has been a very hard year for us to say the least but Coreen and her team made things very straightforward and understandable for us which took a lot off our shoulders. The Advent memorial room and facilities are intimate, private and a beautiful setting. We could bring in food and snacks to share with friends and family who attended the memorial. I can't thank Coreen and her team enough for all the help and support they provided my family. I highly recommend Advent when you suffer the loss of a loved one.

tl;dr: beautiful facilities but horrible, dare i say disrespectful, service…read more i will say everything preneed was fantastic. the two cathy's (at the funeral home and the cemetery) were amazing and helpful. they were very understanding and cooperative. the only negative i have to say (not about them) was that the process took a long time. i was there for about 5-6 hours going over funeral and cemetery plans. here's where things went downhill - the day of the viewing service and the day of the graveside service. this was for my father, by the way. we had ordered two guest books for the day of the viewing service. when guests starting arriving they were nowhere to be found. ben had left us with what i can only assume was an intern to take care of us. when asked where the guest books were. she did not know and it took her a while to find them. also, turns out the casket spray was different than what we had selected. ben's response was they had misread the spray selection. even though it was typed up on the contract? he said they would not be able to compensate us for their mistake but would try to get the correct spray for the burial service the next day, which, to their credit, they did provide the next day. we just had the wrong casket spray for the viewing service. the last HUGE mistake they made during the viewing service was technological. they were playing the slideshow of my dad but kept it playing during the WHOLE SERVICE. that means that pictures of my dad were playing while we were singing hymns and while the pastor was giving a sermon. super distracting. so i go to the back of the room to see if they could turn the slideshow off and turn it back on after the service ended. there was no one back there! i clicked pause on the slideshow to stop it and went outside to find the intern to help turn the tv's off. i eventually found her and she had no idea how to work the computer. she ended up closing the slideshow which made the desktop picture show up on the screens. if the desktop picture was the fairfax memorial funeral home logo or a landscape photo, that would've been fine. but the desktop picture was a cute little baby hedgehog in a bed of flowers/grass. so the pastor is giving the message and for, i kid you not, 5 minutes, this desktop photo is on the screens behind him. now i understand some funeral services would welcome moments of levity like this but this was a very serious service. his death was sudden and unexpected and this just felt disrespectful. fast forward to the next day. we are waiting in the processional behind the hearse to go to the gravesite for the burial service. we had told everyone to arrive at 10:00am for the service. the hearse starts leaving at 9:50am to which my brother-in-law asks them if they could wait for 15 minutes because people were still showing up. at 10am the hearse driver gets out of his car and comes up to me (the driver of the first car of the processional). he says, it's 10:00 we have to go. i ask him if we can wait just 5 more minutes because people are still showing up. we didn't want them to get lost because the cemetery is very big (and beautiful). he huffs and gives me an attitude when he says, "i guess we'll wait then." like i'm inconveniencing him by waiting 5 more minutes. i was shocked how rude he was. so like i said, the facilities are beautiful but the day of the viewing service and burial service, the customer service was absolutely horrible. if their goal was to get my mind off of the death of my father by how bad their service was then they partially succeeded. again, we received no apology or compensation for any of the issues we faced on the service days.

Having to call around to understand the process and costs associated with cremation (and some of the quotes and attitudes at other places were insanity) while also grappling with and grieving the loss of our daughter, was incredibly hard. Money and King stood out as the ABSOLUTE best funeral home I talked to. They were so compassionate, clear about process, and were incredibly kind with cost, and once we had selected them, they took care of every detail and actively kept us up to date. Our daughter was also at a military hospital in MD and they navigated all of that without any extra work on our parts. In a really difficult situation, they were a God-send and I cannot recommend them enough. From the first time I called to the moment we came to pick up her ashes, they were amazing, generous, and kind. Do yourself a favor, in what is likely a challenging time of grief regardless of the situation, and work with this team. Thank you, M&K.
