Very caring and sincere people. Their attention to emotions and concerns was one of their best attributes. All details were addressed and carried out in a very timely manner. Mark Musselwhite is a true gentleman and has continued to check on the family. I would recommend their service to anyone in such a difficult time.

Roger De Franco the Funeral Director I feel went above and beyond his duties. His compassion for my Uncle was one of a family member. He made sure as a whole family we were all taken care of. Roger and his team are true caring professionals.

I want to share how very pleased and thankful for all of the work and time that Mariano Munoz, spent during the process of preparing the paperwork and all that is involved, in my husband’s cremation. Mariano was pleasant, thoughtful, kind, and understanding. He always had a happy comment, which made each of us laugh, and that was good, during the sad and difficult time, of my husband’s passing. Mariano, was thorough, caring, and made every effort to make sure everything was completed and in place in a timely manner. I thank Mariano for all that he has done. Exceptional and very professional. Thank you, Mariano.

No one ever wants to research a cremation center right after a loved one dies suddenly, but I am glad I found Lisa Gregor! I was in a different city when my loved one passed away and I was distraught and lost. The medical examiner was of no help at all and I was desperate in getting my loved one away from them. I stepped Lisa and took the lead immediately to get things started. She was empathetic to my situation and throughout the ENTIRE process was my champion with the different avenues that you have to travel down suddenly. She was knowledgeable, helpful, compassionate to my grief, and was willing to go any distance to make sure my loved one got the proper religious rights respected in these horrible times. I truly want to thank her for making a gut-wrenching situation into a more tolerable one when she kept me informed of the next steps throughout the process. Lisa is invaluable!! I truly thank her and the entire team at Neptune. Truly Lisa, thank you for all you did for me and my loved one.

My husband just recently passed away, and Bill Rafferty made this process a little more tolerable. He was genuine, and honest at a time when I needed it most. Bill helped me with so much more than just cremation. He made me aware of what the next steps were, and helped if not did them for me! Bill was highly recommended to me by the community and township Police. In your time of grief everyone needs Neptune, and Bill Rafferty

When our Father passed we were given a few crematoriums from the staff at JoAnn’s House at Hope Hospice. We researched what had been given to us, I put in my 2 cents as I had heard of the Neptune Society years ago and their services. I became interested in using their services for me someday. Now having actually experienced their services from my Fathers passing I highly recommend The Neptune Society. Jason of Neptune’s was & is very caring & compassionate with us. He helped us through this painful process from start to finish. Thank you Jason for being there for us. Cynthia B.

They were very helpful and considerate at this difficult time. Professional and still compassionate, the staff at Neptune Society in Reno treated us like people, not just clients. That was especially helpful as none of us really had all our wits about us then, during the first days after our loss. There was never any attempt to upsell us or take advantage of our desire to take care of our loved one the best we could. They were transparent about our choices and costs and took care of our needs more affordable and more quickly than expected. I’m grateful that we were guided to them early on as it was not necessary to look any further for help taking care of Dad one last time.
