If I could give this business TEN stars, I would! I am the power of attorney for my late grandmother. The gentleman who helped me to get that established is an affiliate of Unity funeral services. When the time came to lay my beloved grandmother to rest in Greensboro, NC, Unity became the choice to service our needs. They were PHENOMENAL! They took care of EVERY detail, even down to getting copies of death certificates for us, paying all of the vendors with our insurance money and even wearing the colors my grandmother wore in her honor. I wish there were Unities EVERYWHERE! I 500% recommend them for your burial needs. Unity, Mr. P. and your staff...on behalf of the Green/Allen family, THANK YOU and GOD BLESS YOU!

I was referred to unity by a client a few months ago so when my mother passed in March I went to them not knowing what to expect. The atmosphere was inviting Mr Peterson was extremely professional and reassuring. Mrs Veronica was very patience with me as I made many last minute requests not once did she get upset she fulfilled every request with a smile. Ms Tiffany’s cosmetic work on my mother was AMAZING!! She made sure my vision of how I wanted her to be was beautifully executed! If your looking for professional service I highly recommend UNITY. They do exactly what they say..”WE’RE HERE FOR YOU! ❤️

I absolutely have no choice but to leave a SECOND review for this establishment, because I am so truly BLOWN AWAY by their professionalism and incredible "customer service ". I put that in quotations because at no point was I ever treated, nor did I feel like a "customer ". The entire staff here treated me as a human being, worthy of respect and understanding. I swear I had to be the most difficult client they have ever had to put up with (not intentionally, of course) I changed my mind more times than I can even count, I can't imagine how THEY must have felt...yet I never detected any indication...not even a hint of annoyance in anyone I dealt with (especially Tiffany, I swear she is the most patient human on the planet) I was late for EVERYTHING. I mean EVERY SINGLE THING....including the actual service!!! They held everything up (and probably had to work double time to get the chapel prepared for the next family) while I proceeded to arrive about 45 minutes late (again, unintentionally and unfortunately entirely out of my control) I was HYSTERICAL and so so embarrassed, but each time I called to update them on my situation, nothing but kind, patient understanding. I was even late paying.....BY ALMOST 5 MONTHS!!! With no communication either because I ended up falling SERVERELY ill and was unconscious in a hospital bed. When they finally got ahold of me (which just so happened to be the very same day I got home. They were on the top of my list to contact but they got to me first.....the incredible part however, was that when I went through my phone, I think they had called a total of 2 times....when I went completely MIA for MONTHS) I STILL had to keep them waiting for over another week. Tiffany just VERY politely helped me to process a PARTIAL payment....and still....all this time later with all the headache I'm sure I have caused (and feel so bad and embarrassed about) they have remained EXTREMELY professional and some of the most patient individuals I've ever dealt with.With ALL that bring said...they also made the entire process so much less stressful and scary and the service was beautiful. All I'm saying is, if you have just lost someone very dear to you and you're hurting and scared and overwhelmed, you'd be foolish to go anywhere else. Allow them to help you through this absolutely awful time and difficult process. You will be glad you did!

I had a very good experience with unity. They made sure everything i needed was taking care of. One of the hardest experiences turned out great thanks to Unity. I would recommend to anybody. They were very nice, made sure my time was not wasted. Communication is everything and they had it. 😌

EverSettled · After the Veteran Funeral

The veteran's spouse may qualify for VA Dependency & Indemnity Compensation.

DIC is a tax-free monthly benefit for surviving spouses, dependent children, and (in some cases) parents of veterans whose death is service-connected. EverSettled walks veteran families through DIC eligibility, survivor pension, life-insurance claims, probate, and the federal-account paperwork that follows.

How honors are coordinated

Military funeral honors are guaranteed at no cost for any veteran discharged under conditions other than dishonorable. The funeral home arranges the honors detail by contacting the deceased's last unit or the nearest active-duty installation of the appropriate branch and submitting the DD-214 to verify eligibility.

For requests less than 72 hours from service time, families can call the Department of Defense's expedited honors line at 1-877-MIL-HONR (1-877-645-4667). See the full honors protocol.

After the Service · Veteran Family

Estate settlement is the next chapter for veteran families.

DIC, survivor pension, and VA educational benefits run alongside probate, life-insurance claims, and account retitling. EverSettled guides veteran families through every step at no cost.
