"My wife died unexpectedly in her sleep and we had no funeral plans. Rex could not have been more patient and understanding in explaining all of the options and required steps and processes to be followed. Even the restrictions forced by Covid did not deter Rex from making himself available to handle every question and to attend to every detail. I could not have expected a better outcome under the difficult circumstances. Thank you to all at Cotten, you are the best."

"I live almost 3,000 miles away and they really helped me during this unexpected time of grief when my mother passed away. I had no idea what to do or how to handle anything. They assisted me in navigating everything from the paperwork, cremation arrangements, and even how to write the obituary and other questions about writing it. They were so patient and accommodating to me. I had so many questions and they were so patient with all my questions and concerns. I can't say enough good things about their service."
