Mr. Green and the staff where very helpful in our time of need. They took good care of my mother, who passed, and was very helpful with my dad. John answered all of our questions and made sure we knew what the process was for my mom. Thank you!

John Greeney and the office of the Neptune Society he manages in Tucson are just the BEST. He is compassionate, kind, caring, extremely knowledgeable and just made me feel everything would be okay even though my life was falling apart. I don’t think there could be a better person for his position and I am forever grateful for John helping me so much with that particular task.

My father is getting to the stage in life where I start to worry that he hasn’t made arrangements yet. I attended a Neptune Seminar recently and learned so much about preplanning for his cremation. Stephanie answered all the questions I had with no pressure. We are going with Neptune because I know they’re a reputable company, my aunt had this plan for years before passing… Everything went smoothly. Thank you, Neptune, for being there for us during that difficult time, I’m at peace knowing that I will have to do very little when my father passes someday.

I enjoyed the seminar. It was very relaxed, not a hard sell. Stephanie clearly explained what Neptune offers. Several family members had previously used Neptune, and when they passed, everything was handled very easily. I wanted to take the stress out of making arrangements from my children, so it was logical to sign up. It was an easy process and I know my family will not be burdened with having to make final arrangements.

I was so happy to find out that my father had started a plan with Neptune! My brothers and I have been worried that this would fall on our shoulders someday. We all agreed it was such a compassionate thing he did for us, the last thing we need in our busy lives is to make decisions while we are grieving. He said they have been pleasant to work with on making his monthly payments and that the staff is very kind. He also said the price was very affordable. This is one less thing we need to take care of in the future.
