Since 2005, many of our customers have taken the time to tell us how we did each year via our Voice of the Customer program. Our star ratings and comments from families come directly from these surveys.

"My family had a pleasant experience, considering the circumstance. We were never rushed or felt pressure. We were presented several options for our loved one's final resting place. Ultimately, we chose a cremation post, which is one of the coolest things I've seen.The fact that we were the first family to purchase one made us especially proud. Our graveside service was exactly as planned. A heartfelt thank you to all the staff."
