Important Update Regarding COVID-19
Morrissett Funeral and Cremation Service is constantly monitoring the rapid changes of COVID-19 (Corona Virus)
We are following instructions by the Governor of Virginia, The CDC, The National Funeral Directors Association, The Virginia Funeral Directors Association and Regulatory Support Services.
The following outlines the Phase 3 procedure in compliance with the Governor’s current order of 50% capacity.
As of May 15, 2020, Governor Northam has begun to allow some businesses and places of worship and or ceremony to operate at 50% occupancy. We are committed to the families we serve and the communities that support them. We ask that families consider that the type of gatherings they hold to be ever mindful of those who attend, and their health and well-being. We also ask that you refrain from hugging or shaking hands and practice safe social distancing.
What this means for services:
As of May 26, 2020, Governor Northam has put an order in place requiring masks to be worn when in public buildings. In order to protect the vulnerable and high-risk members of the community, it is highly recommended that face masks be worn. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide masks for visitors; please utilize your own. Failure to use a mask while in our establishment will be an assumed release of liability.
All Morrissett Staff will be wearing face masks at all times.
We have placed hand sanitizer and polite reminders throughout the building to assist with cleanliness. We have upgraded the air filters on all of our HVAC systems to promote cleaner air exchange. If you are not in attendance and would like to pass condolences or have your name added to the guest book, please call us and we will assist or utilize the online condolences at Morrissett.com.
Once again, we ask you to practice safe social distancing, and to please not attend if you are ill or at high risk.
Families that maybe in need of our services in the coming weeks, please know that we will care for you and your loved ones with the utmost respect and assist you in the options we feel are safe and that comply with the Governor of Virginia’s limitations and the CDC.
This can mean public or private family services. We promise to work with you as families and your comfort level and desires to honor your loved one.
Please be aware that no coffee, cookies, or cups of water will be available to any guest or families. We will have bottled water available at your request.
As we monitor this ever rapidly changing situation, we will continue to provide updates in regard to the measures we are taking. We appreciate the support and kindness shown during this difficult time. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please contact us at 804-275-7828 or e-mail to Staff@Morrissett.com

Renee meant the world to me and my family. Her laugh was contagious and she was always one of the most thoughtful women I have ever met. I have prayed for days and I know that the good Lord has given you the journey of a lifetime. Rest rest with your mom and brother. We will shed many tears but we know that you are needed above. I love you. Always have, always will.

I met Renee about 20+ years ago. We had ups and downs, but we always found our way back to each other as friends. I will never forget the countless hours we spent talking about our kids and her new grandbaby, Wyatt. I’ll never forget when she gave me a baby shower, then found out she was pregnant with Michael. I enjoyed spending time at her home with her mom, aunt, Mike and the kids just enjoying life. May you rest in peace my friend. I will miss you, but God knows best. Prayers to the family at this difficult time. ~Missing you already

Mike and family,
I am so sorry to hear of Renee’s passing. We had talked in the spring of visiting each other, had not seen her since she was 12. Growing up her mother and I were good friends as well as in-laws, but like so many families we lost touch as our families grew. She will be missed by all who loved her, but its a comfort to know she is with her mom and brother once again. Our prayers to all of you. Sara Catlett, Mark and Debbie
