Fairfax Memorial Funeral Home

Vincenzo Misuraca

Yesterday was one of the most difficult moments of my life. I had to say goodbye to Vincenzo, my soul mate and father of my child. I am a woman of faith and my faith was tested. I believed that God had abandoned me. Then, something amazing and miraculous occurred- He sent Cathy from Fairfax Memorial Funeral Home to be the Funeral Director. She was a divine blessing. The moment we met, I knew we had a connection. She understood what it was like to lose a spouse and shared that with me. She directed the service and burial with dignity and grace. Any time I requested something- no matter how tedious or impossible- she never hesitated and made it happen at God speed. The gentle way she handled my 9-year-old son and enabled him to say goodbye to his dad by allowing him to help close the casket was truly remarkable. There was not a dry eye in the chapel. "Thank you” doesn’t even hit the tip of the iceberg for all that she has done. She was my fairy Godmother during this heartbreaking period in my life. Cathy at Fairfax Memorial turned one of my darkest hours into a period of light. She and the rest of the staff were professional, kind, proactive, diligent and patient- All fine qualities when a family is burying a loved one. They gave my husband a beautiful miliary send off. I know he is proud. I also know I made the best decision when I chose Fairfax Memorial. You will never know how much you touched my life and all those grieving for my husband. Bless you all.

Ava, Nicole and Dustin went above and beyond my highest expectations. Everything down to the smallest detail was addressed. Their professionalism, empathy and willingness to meet expectations are second to none. I highly recommend them and Fairfax Memorial Funeral Home for your needs after the loss of a loved one.

I came to Fairfax Memorial Funeral Home (FMFH) to have my deceased husband cremated, because that had been his wish. I had no experience with cremations, was grieving, and not in a good place emotionally. Fortunately for me, I got just the right Funeral Directorllk in Cathy Younkin. She was gentle and understanding with me, and helped me make the best decisions for me. Cathy has also been very helpful to me in writing the online obituary, as well as so patient and pleasant about my many corrections and changes. The online obituary gets better each time I read it. Everyone that I have had contact with at FMFH has been very pleasant, polite, and helpful. This has been my first experience with FMFH and I am glad that I made this choice. AnnTrichilo Stobaugh

My husband and I came to Fairfax Memorial Funeral Home with a rather challenging situation. This is when we met Cathy, Funeral Director, who was heaven sent for us. We explained our situation, and she was immediately onboard. She provided us with support, a listening ear, and showed empathy in regards to our situation. In less than a business day we had received information as to how things would proceed with the funeral. We asked questions, she had answers. We had concerns, she took the time explain what was to expected. It was refreshing to be offered peace of mind during this unfortunate time.
