My mother has just transitioned. It has been very difficult. The staff from RAPP have been a light in the darkness, especially Ms. Linda. I’m very grateful for them.

I recently had the experience of working with Rapp Funeral and Cremation Services, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Despite facing unexpected delays from the Department of Vital Records in DC, their team was incredibly diligent and proactive in managing the situation. They kept us informed and worked to secure the necessary Certificate of Death for the cremation.
Their professionalism and compassion made a difficult time much more manageable. It's clear that Rapp Funeral and Cremation Services truly cares about their clients and goes above and beyond to provide excellent service. I’m deeply grateful for their support and expertise during this challenging period.
Thank you, Rapp Funeral and Cremation Services, for your outstanding care and dedication.

Going through the death of a loved one is an emotional time for everyone involved. Rapp Funeral & Cremation has supported our family with empathy, understanding and patience. Their commitment began before our dad passed away and has continued several weeks since he was cremated.
Our dad’s ashes will not be interred for six to seven months while wait to have his memory bench built. Rapp offered to keep our dad’s ashes safe until we are ready at no additional costs. This was such a huge relief for our family. No other funeral homes were willing to keep dad’s ashes without an additional fee of several hundred dollars a month.
The care and comfort Rapp provides to families is invaluable. Our family is eternally grateful for their ongoing support.

Great experience with Rapp from beginning to end. We used only their cremation services, but everyone we talked with was professional, efficient, helpful, and pleasant. They made the whole process as easy as possible for us. I would definitely use Rapp again for similar services.

Making end-of-life decisions for a loved one is a vulnerable time. I found the people at Rapp Funeral & Cremation Services to be knowledgeable and supportive during this time. They price their services fairly and have the client's best interests in mind. I recommend highly.
