Thank you, Howell & Jolley Memorial Chapel, for arranging such beautiful homegoing services for our parents Ambrose Bishop (December 2021) and Bessie M. Bishop (February 2022). Our family survived the grief of losing both parents within two months through the love, services, and dedication provided by Howell & Jolley. The staff at Howell & Jolley was understanding and comforting in our time of need. No matter what time the family reached out to Rachel Gulley, the funeral director, and her staff, they were always available. The grief of losing both parents was too heavy to carry alone, so your attentiveness and professionalism lightened the load.

The Gulley team executed everything professionally with grace and dedication to the family from the initial phone call, the first visit to the funeral home, making the funeral arrangements, assisting in writing the obituary, assembling the pictures for the video, and the memorial service. The staff managed to make what seemed to be our darkest hours filled with comfort and serenity.

The family wants to give a special thanks to Rachel Gulley, the director of Howell & Jolley. Rachel always made herself available as if we were her only client. On the day of the private viewing, Rachel had a quilt made with our mother's picture and poem that the children wrote hanging in the room. When we saw the quilt, family members began to cry. At that moment, we realized how much Rachell cared about our family. It was not just a business transaction for her; it was an act of kindness that we will never forget. That is how much Howell & Jolley Memorial Chapel cares about the families they serve.

Howell & Jolley, we want to thank you sincerely for your kind expression of sympathy and thoughtfulness in our family's time of need. It is deeply appreciated, and the family will never forget your act of kindness.

Family of Ambrose and Bessie Bishop.

To alleviate stress and worry, our family opted for a prearranged funeral package and we are so glad we did. This helped us to focus solely on the grieving process and allowed us to be there for one another instead of having to plan the end of life service. All the staff was so gracious and kind throughout everything. Even though we planned ahead, we never felt rushed. Because of their compassion and concern during such a difficult time, we would definitely recommend them to anyone in need.

Thank you for thinking of me and for the wonderful act of kindness. I received the gift with the same love that it was given. Thank you so much.

We chose Jolley Memorial Chapel P.A for their great local reputation and my late husband's prior relationship with the Jolley family. We will always recommend this funeral home because of how they treat those who are grieving. The service, compassion and care extended to us surpassed all expectations. Thank you again for all you do for others and the gracious way you remembered my dear husband.

The Hudson family has used Jolley Memorial Chapel P.A since 1959. Jolley would travel to Philadelphia, PA and transport the remains of our loved ones all the way back to Berlin Md and perform the funeral service. We continue to this day to use Jolley Memorial Chapel P.A because of their excellence, attention to detail and the warmth and care with which they serve. My family is grateful!

This was a difficult experience to say goodbye and I was grateful we chose to pre-arrange in advance. Jolley's staff worked tirelessly through every single detail with compassion and patience. They were extremely kind and helpful. Their grounds are even immaculate which shows how much attention they put into everything they do. Excellent customer service! I would recommend them to anyone in need of funeral services and I would tell anyone to plan ahead to help your loved ones through a hard time.

I chose Jolley Memorial Chapel P.A due to their local reputation and affordable cost. They spent as much time as I needed to ensure I was completely satisfied with all my selections. The staff was knowledgeable and caring and I didn't feel rushed. They even suggested ways to personalize the service to honor the memory of my father. That meant so much to me. Thank you for everything.

This was my first personal experience with funeral arrangements and I was very pleased. I chose Jolley due to their local reputation of excellent, dignified service. They are known for providing affordability while not compromising care, compassion or attention to detail. They certainly lived up to that reputation. The entire staff offered support and guidance to me but they didn't overwhelm or pressure me, which I greatly appreciated. I will recommend them to anyone.

Our family has used Jolley for previous funerals and we've always been thoroughly impressed by their professional care and service. I am so grateful we opted to use their prearranged service package before it was necessary. It saved us time, expense, and expedited the difficult process of selecting appropriate items. Their establishment is top notch and the staff is more than willing to work with you and patiently answer any questions and address any issues. Thank you Jolley Memorial Chapel P.A for the wonderful way we were able to memorialize our deceased

Thank you does not adequately describe the appreciation I feel for your assistance in making the homegoing of my mom, Hester C. Smith, one that our family will always treasure.  Mother looked so beautiful; like she was asleep.

I must commend you and your staff on the professional service we received.  Your thoughtful suggestions, patience and caring, during this difficult time, helped make the celebration of Mother's life more pleasant for the family.

Thank you again for your everything over the years (grandmother, father, mother).
