“Jody Tyson is the most insensitive, condescending, chauvinistic man I've ever met. In the middle of my great-aunt's funeral, he told me "you NEED to take your children out of here." When I told him they had been quiet for a few minutes, he said "if necessary I will have you removed." My aunt cherished my kids at every family event and I believe is honored they are here to celebrate her life. I can't believe the audacity this man had. He wanted to argue with me and wouldn't let me finish a sentence. But it was all about him and how he thought my family should act. Also, upon arriving, there was no effort made to direct us to the chapel which was then offered to us when my "kids were disruptive." I don't believe a few kid noises were enough for such rudeness on Mr. Tyson's behalf. Edited to add: If this funeral home really strives for such services, they would have staff available to families when they arrive, instead of an afterthought. There was no where near enough staff present when we arrived, and sat on the back row.”
“Taylor -Tyson were so amazing with our loved one. They were understanding and went above and beyond. Highly recommend if ever needed Betty Mailing Shingleton family”
“My family and I had an amazing experience at Taylor-Tyson. Everyone was kind, accommodating, and compassionate. The facility is very nice and inviting. Thank you for making such a sad and challenging time easier. I highly recommend this company.”
“I'd like to thank Jody Tyson for the care, concern and compassion he went out of his way to show me during the recent death of my mother. He was of great comfort during a terribly difficult time.”
“The entire family thanks you for being extremely accommodating for our changing needs, which shows the depth of compassion you have for others. You have truly found your calling in life, and we will be forever grateful for your kindness.”
How to request military funeral honors
By law (10 U.S.C. § 1491), an eligible veteran's funeral can include, on request, an honors detail of at least two service members who fold and present the U.S. flag to the family and play Taps. The funeral director usually makes the request and will need the veteran's DD214 or other discharge papers.
VA suggests asking at least 48 to 72 hours before the service. More on what honors include and how to request them.
