On each occurrence, CSOV has been so helpful, thoughtful, and guiding as I have had to take care of my family members. Today, Lauren Thorne was my councilor and she did everything I asked of her and more. I must also give a shout out to Katie who started the process yesterday by initiating the final steps on my brother's behalf.

I have one more brother and when the time comes for him to depart and if I am still living, CSOV will be my 1st call. read less

Not everyone is interested in cremation so I would recommend it if I was asked.

Pre-planning and payments eliminates decisions for our children during emotional time.

It is a good idea to plan ahead for something this certain and save money by securing current pricing.

It's very clear she cares about anyone that walks through the door or calls her. She was very delicate about our situation and was more than accommodating. Any question was given an answer and there were no grey areas like so many other places. No one enjoys planning a funeral but she made it a smooth process for us and made it simple. We knew when our papers were ready, we were offered items we didnt know were out there and she was on the ball letting us know the status of the remains. She was gentle with my mothers remains and I couldnt have asked for a better outcome with them. This isn't something any of us want to go through but we will at some point, go to Lauren, she will take care of you and your loved ones. read less

She was thoughtful, kind, and patient as we went through the process of making decisions.

She kindly kept us on track when our minds were not able to and helped us provide peace for our mom. Lauren personally escorted our mother's urn with remains to the church and we are grateful for the dignity provided to her. On a practical note, the costs were so much more manageable than a typical funeral home! Thank you Cremation Society of Virginia!! read less

We contacted the Anatomical Society of Virginia to make arrangements; we were told we should have a backup plan with a funeral establishment. Therefore, we met with a representative of a reputable funeral home very close to home to discuss our needs and, having used a cremation society for a family death in another state, we researched the Cremation Society of Virginia online. On the surface, that appeared to be the better of the two for our needs. I then spoke with Katie Brower at the Virginia Beach office. How helpful she has been. Most of our exchanges have been done through email; there has been no need to go into an office. Ms. Brower has patiently and pleasantly answered all our questions, guided us through the few bits of paperwork, and, now, a week later, we have the policy and contract we want in hand. I couldn't have asked for anyone better that Ms. Brower to work with. On top of that, the price was less than half of what was quoted by the other establishment we contacted. Many thanks to the Cremation Society of Virginia and, especially, Katie Brower. read less

The suddenness was overwhelming as well as devastating. My family and I interviewed three Crematories and were very content with our decision to go with Cremation Society of Virginia Hampton Roads. We met with Katie Brower and felt right at ease with her calm demeanor . We stated what we wanted and to please claim our family member's remains from the morgue as soon as possible. Katie was never pushy and always available to answer our questions and concerns. We had an informal viewing which was overseen by Larry to say our "final goodbye" and were so pleased to see our sibling look as if "they were sleeping peacefully" .

Despite knowing they were going i didn't think to make arrangements ahead of time.
Mom passed early in the morning and within a short time of notifying Cremation Society of my need, staff members arrived to take care of mom and Christy came to me so i didn't have to leave my father during his last hours.
Christy Crewes made the paperwork and decisions I needed to make as painless as possible while allowing me to be near my dad.
Both my parents were WWII veterans and the Cremation Society honor them as such that when they transported them they had placed an American flag over them.
Once arrangements were made for their burial, I let Christy know and on the day of their service their cremains were at the church. One less thing for me to be concerned with.
I chose to have a glass pendant made with mom and dads ashes- it is beautiful and i wear it 24/7.
I find when i get stressed I unconsciously rub the pendant and remember my parents. read less

We called for help and this place was wonderful. It was such a relief to know help was on the way. At our appointment to make the final arrangements everyone was so very nice. I greatly appreciated that Christy was not in a "fake" somber mood as some funeral home personal seem to be. She was phenomenal. She answered every question & gave us very helpful pointers to get us through this. Our loved one was ready earlier then anticipated and is home with us in time for Christmas. Thank you so much for your caring professionalism. I highly recommend this place. read less
