Description
Earle first opened the doors to our Woodbridge location in 1962 – although back then we were called Cunningham Mountcastle Funeral Home. They soon developed a reputation for serving their neighbors with compassion and the most excellent attention to detail. In 1987, Earle and his wife, Meg built a second location, Mountcastle Funeral Home in Dale City. In 2000, Michael Turch was named General Manager, and in 2010, was named Vice President and Managing Partner, and the firm changed its name to Mountcastle Turch Funeral Home & Crematory. Michael is passionate about continuing the rich legacy of the funeral home. Along with the rest of our team, he believes and instills the philosophy that everyone’s life has meaning and is deserving of the most personalized celebration, regardless of social or financial standing, religion or ethnicity. As he often says, “We are – in every sense of the word – a life celebration home.” There are times when nothing but the best will do. This is one of them. OUR STAFF

I am not one to leave a review, especially under these circumstances. However, due to the extreme care and comfort we received from Michael Turch and his staff at Mountcastle I feel it’s appropriate. Once my mother passed away all I had to do was make ONE phone call to Mountcastle. They handled the rest. I had know clue what to do or where to begin. I only knew I wanted to fulfill my mother’s wishes the best I could. They asked all the right questions and offered suggestions. Based on their recommendations our viewing and memorial service was perfect. They paid special attention to details, things I would have never thought of. I can’t thank them enough for helping us through such a difficult time. Thank you for taking such good care of my mom and providing us with the peace and comfort we needed.

It might seem odd leaving a review when one experiences a loss, especially for immediate family. However, Mountcastle Turch was absolutely amazing with the level of care, dedication, and support that they gave my family in my dads' passing. We initially met with Sarah who was so caring and her level of care felt genuinely natural. She was extremely communicative, and thorough throughout the entire process. She is an asset to Mountcastle Turch. I was completely blown away when I walked into my father's ceremony. The patriotic theme that they came up with brought me to tears, truly. I know that he was honored. The level of detail was so comforting and gave our family tremendous peace. Peace that we hadn't had since before his passing. We felt it was done right! Larry and (I'm sorry to have missed her name at the ceremony) were so polite, so caring and so helpful. We just couldn't have been more pleased with the experience through Mountcastle Turch. Thank you for taking such good care of my dad.

Had a horrible experience with this funeral home. I been to 2 funerals in their home and one time they were all smoking outside and yelling in the back room during the funeral. The last one I went to scared me. I will never be able to go to an open casket again. I still can’t tell if that person was my loved one. Looked unrecognizable completely. Fly high sis wherever they got you

Fabulous through and through. They truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was in place for my father's funeral, and had the most beautiful programs and pictures. It was easy to coordinate with them, and they were very willing and cooperative to work with our church for the service. Very kind and professional.

My aunt had a service there recently for her daughter and of course we the cousins we attended. I was highly disappointed in the Director that was working there that evening. She was a young lady , her name is Sydney, did not seem at all compassionate and I wondered why she was in such a position and why such a young person was in a position that knows nothing about life. After my aunt had signed a contract, can you believe she had to sign a contract with so many stipulations just to bury her child, The family overlooked all of this and was appalled by certain charges. How disgusting can you be in order to rob someone at their vulnerable time in their life, just add such astronomical fees to view their child. You are definitely on a time frame when the family goes to visit and believe you me, the staff watches the clock like a hawk. To me this displayed one motive and we all know it’s not about caring for the family or the person lying in that casket. I would never use this funeral home and I will never recommend anyone to go there for services. Of course I’m sure all funeral homes in the Northern Virginia area are the same because people you need to read the fees of what they charge unnecessarily to bury or help with the service of your deceased one. It is a disgrace and it’s apparent that they are not regulated and something needs to be done now to correct the situation. My aunt had to suffer enough to bury her child and the family had to endure this uncompassionate way of celebrating a life. They offer plenty of seating and the room is plenty large and plenty of parking on the outside but not impressed with the way they handle the grieving and the dead. My cousin who died young, she looked green with the make up that they used. I understand that the body deteriorates overtime and it’s hard to match the persons look but I’ve been to plenty of funerals and funeral homes and this make up artist does not know what they’re doing. Check into it people before you go with this Mountcastle and if you can avoid Northern Virginia all together I would suggest doing that too!
