I find it’s extremely important I do this. We all know that bad news spreads quick and if it was something negative people would love to run to the internet and share it. But I’m going to switch it up and spread some positivity. I wanna give a 6 star review to Howell Funeral Home. First things first it’s a beautiful place. Without getting into to much details our mother passed which of course was a tragic situation on its own to add on top of it we first went to another well known funeral home and was treated horribly. My mother was a kind and respectful woman. A woman of grace and always treated people how she wanted to be treated. So after tragedy and frustration Howell Funeral home stepped in. A special shout out to my boy Kurt who not only helped walk us through this confusing process but also I felt he gave my mother the respect she deserved in her final moments. Kurt is an extremely hard working man who always found the time to answer questions, no matter how busy he was he found a way to make our schedules work and I can’t express enough his understanding, sympathy and empathy of the situation and for that I have to salute him and Howell Funeral home. The staff is wonderful I almost look at them as family. These are not things I wish on anyone but if your in a position like mine I would definitely recommend this funeral home and ask for Kurt. Thanks again Howell funeral home and Kurt. Nuff love, nuff respect. Errol and Family.

Where do I start?? This place is down right horrible. Do not go here! Me and my wife first picked this place because they have some good reviews ..those have to be fake. Let me start off with their communication it’s the worst I have ever experienced in my life. We first called to arrange for them to pick up my baby girls from the hospital the first 2 times they went they couldn’t pick them up which was our fault because we was not aware they had to me in the morgue. Once they got sent down we told Howell funeral home that they was down their and ready for pick up and if they can give us a call once they picked up our girls. For 2 days we didn’t get a call and had to call the morgue to see if they was picked up and then had to call Howell and the first few calls they didn’t know what we was talking about till and tell us they will call us back and never would. we finally reached the owner and he confirmed they was there. After that we had an appointment set for Sunday at 3pm to set everything up for girls the man named Tomas or Thompson? Did not show up at all. There was a man there genuinely confused didn’t know what was going on and tried calling him and texting him no answer he then told us that the guy should call us back that same day or next day , never did I had to call once AGAIN. Then finally I asked them if I can have another funeral home pick up my girls they had an attitude with me, when I wouldn’t have wanted to switch if we would’ve have got the communication that we asked for. They are unorganized and uncommunicative. Then wanted to charge for their mistake! Until we got ahold of the owner and he waived it, this place is unprofessional do not go here for your loved ones.

At the worst time in your life, these are the people you need. My daughter-in-law passed very suddenly so I offered to recon the local funeral homes. At Howell, I was greeted immediately upon entering. We briefly discussed what I was looking for, was quickly handed a preprinted price list with all the information, and given a quick overview of what they offered. The appointment to finish the paperwork was estimated at a half hour. We walked in at exactly 1:00 and walked out at exactly 1:30 with everything done. My son was able to designate me to do the identification to spare him some pain. Her body was laid out privately in the chapel (honestly, we were expecting just a back room) and we were given as much time as we needed. The ashes were back that day and available for pickup immediately. This company is honest and compassionate. At no time were we ever pressured with up-selling, extras, or unnecessary fees. In comparison, the other company doesn't hold a candle to Howell. I am so grateful to the staff at Howell for all they did for our family with no fuss.

Donaldson Funeral Home

313 Talbott Ave, Laurel, MD 20707

Our funeral home has been a family owned and operated business since 1931. The year 2016 brings us to our 85th anniversary of service to the community! The funeral home was founded by DeWitt Donaldson and was originally located on Main Street, near the Laurel train station. The business moved to the Talbott Avenue location in 1952. The building has gone through many changes over the years with a major expansion and renovation in 2000. We are large enough to give our families the same service as the largest funeral homes around, yet we are small enough that each family gets the level of attention and care they deserve. In June 2003, the Donaldson family opened their second funeral home in Odenton, MD. This new facility is a one level, completely accessible funeral home. An on-site crematory eliminates the need for unnecessary transportation to a third party crematory. For those who desire to witness the beginning of the cremation process, a room with a window looking into the crematory area is provided for their privacy and peace of mind. We also offer pet cremations, which are performed in a similar crematory designed for animals.
