I worked with VT in the Accident Investigation Unit at MPD. I was impressed by his knowledge, demeanor and appearance. He was a role model to many. May he rest in peace. My sincere condolences to his family.

V.T. Campbell made a significant contribution to the Miami Police Department through the creation of our Honor Guard, with a training syllabus which assured consistency with each service, but adaptability when required based on the exigencies of the situation, and which was largely responsible for the longevity of the Guard concept. Personally, I enjoyed each and every conversation with Valtin over the years, and he never pulled a punch when he thought one was required, and I enjoyed his company. He served our country, and our Department, very well. May God bless his family, of which he was very proud, as is evidenced by his postings over the years, and our coversations over the years.

  • The service from Millennium was outstanding. Rachel was sweet, personable and very comforting. It was important to me that my dad was kept locally where I knew where he would be. Very nice facility, state of the art and quality of my fathers remains were so refined compared to my mothers years ago. I highly recommend this place for an affordable choice for your loved one. Thank you for making an already stressful event easy. With high regards, the Esposito and Keith Family.

  • Millennium Cremation provided a fantastic service to our family at a difficult time. Our beloved mother passed away in Vero Beach and the rest of the family was in other parts of the country. Due to the Covid health crisis, none of us could get to Vero Beach in person. That's where Millennium took over. They helped us manage everything, coordinated with a cemetery in Maine, managed the obituaries, expedited all the paperwork, and even delivered an important document locally that saved us days. Funeral director Rachel was a godsend, and she made it clear what she was going to do, and what we needed to do. If you know what you want, Millennium is highly recommended, and the savings versus the full service mortuaries is significant.
