I attended a "dinner and learn" event hosted by Northern Viriginia Funerals and found it to be very helpful and informative. The staff (Zane, Gary and Ellen) were very friendly and seem to genuinely care about their clients and the work they do. I definitely recommend meeting with this group to learn about the services they offer. This new company services the entire DMV.

I chose Northern Virginia Jewish Funerals to bury my daughter at first because they were local and I knew they would understand our burial customs. But, they were absolutely stellar though the whole grieving process. They called me right away and often. Kept me in the loop with the whole process and literally held me as I cried. I cannot say enough good things about them and I would highly recommend them.

As is the case with many people, pre-planning had been in the back of our minds for a long time. So when Northern Virginia Jewish Funerals (NVJF) came to the Northern Virginia area earlier this year, we decided to meet with them. We could not have asked for a better experience. Meeting with Gary and Ellen in the office in Vienna, it was more comfortable and easier to talk about funeral planning than we expected - not at all intimidating or upsetting. NVJF has filled a void in our community and we highly recommend their services. They are genuinely nice people, and it is clear that they hope to serve the needs of our community for years to come with integrity and compassion. Do not hesitate to have a conversation with them!

As a rabbi for 30+ years, I've seen a lot of funeral homes and met dozens of funeral directors in a few parts of the country. Most are adequate, and a rare few are really inspiring. Northern Virginia Jewish Funerals is clearly an industry leader coming out of the gate. The front office area is comfortable and contemporary, the staff are caring and gracious, and the built-in commitment to community partnerships the exact right pathway for success. It is clear that their client families will be extremely well served, and I look forward to seeing their success lift up the NoVa Jewish community for years to come!

Just stopped by to take a look at this new home. Thinking about preplanning. When I walked in, I thought I was in the wrong building. It was SO nice! It was like a charming and comfortable living space. I was in a place where I could relax instead of the usual sterile and typical funeral home. Man, what a difference on my emotions. These guys got it right.

We finally have a legit Jewish funeral home in Northern Virginia. Northern Virginia Jewish Funerals provide great service and education around the rituals regarding burial.
