Rachel, It was the most difficult time for my kids and myself as the passing of my husband MJDiaz III happened during this Pandemic! Rachel our funeral director made it smooth and easy for all of us! The sudden switch to a Chapel service with a live stream made it that families all over able to watch the very solemn military service for my husband🙏. The staff at the Funeral Homes and the transport were very courteous and respectful of our privacy and requests! We did shared to families that we were satisfied with the whole process and service! Thank you again Rachel Staff and EWFH for the pleasant send off of my husband🙏 God bless us all and take care🙏 Nancy, Suzi and Chris Diaz

The entire team was very personably , professional, caring and showed the upmost respect for my family. The celebration service was wonderful. My family was able to pay our last respects and say goodbye to our mom in a absolutely perfect setting. Rachelle did a great job making us all feel comfortable in preparing for the service. Paul, our celebrant, was incredible. It is easy to see that he cares. A very graceful man. I would have to give Paul six stars. Well done, thank you and God bless. Daniel McManus

I'm not surprised to see many negative reviews after our recent experience. Even more disappointing is seeing how far back these reviews date. Obviously Washelli is no longer focused on ground care or visual consideration for family/friends attending services. On the scheduled service date I arrived an hour in advance to find the plot area in Memory Glen totally unacceptable. Garbage floated in the pond, un-mowed grass/weeds around the grave markers, chipped paint/boards/graffiti and weeds growing thru the gazebo. With a very short window to get things somewhat cleaned up we headed to the office requesting our "outside" service contact, Kate Stone. She was unavailable and the receptionist was more concerned about our raised voices and disturbing "others" who had lost loved ones. With the clock ticking until service time and our demands for someone in authority getting louder, we were finally ushered into a room and met with Aaron, only 2 weeks on the job, who apologized, admitted Washelli had failed us and immediately had a crew on scene. Although this delayed the service, the area (except for the gazebo) was made presentable. Aaron did not offer excuses but shared that ownership had changed and like other businesses, Washelli has a problem with transients, drug users and property defacement. Although insightful, and with 4 months lead time on our service, it did not excuse or explain the poor appearance of my Mother's plot on that date. As Kate was our point of contact and the face of Washelli to us, it was our expectation that she would follow thru and confirm preparations to ensure that the area was acceptable for her customers and their guests. Obviously that was not the case and I believe had she seen it, would agree the site was far below the standard Washelli claims to showcase. What should have been a comforting, tranquil and peaceful afternoon was emotionally marred by a totally preventable situation. My Mom was the 5th family member to be interred at Washelli. Based on this experience I would not recommend this facility.

Washelli Bothell had a great staff and service led by Kevin and Leah. They were organized, timely, and compassionate. They made the whole process easier. Would recommend many them to anyone we know but hope that we don't have too anytime soon.

I don't work for the columbarium, but it was likely just closed that day for the Independence Day Holiday.

Is Phovie Thomas born 1898 died in Seattle around the end of 1972 buried here at Evergreen Wahelli?

I would recommend calling the offices for Evergreen with this question. Most likely for privacy you're not going to get a response confirming if this person is buried at one of their locations.
