I can’t say enough amazing things about The Neptune Society. I recently lost my brother and my parents asked me to look for someone to take care of him. I contacted The Neptune Society and spoke with Lori. She’s an absolute angel! She explained everything to me in a way that was plain, simple, and easy to understand. When I had any contact with any of the staff members, they were VERY caring and understanding of my loss. I recommend them to anyone who needs their services. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

From the moment I called, on a Sat @4am, they took care of everything. The person I talked to helped me so much when the nursing home kept telling me I had to get “the body” out within 4 hrs! I was called at 3:30am on a sat am where this was not expected! Carlos was a blessing. He listened, was understanding, compassionate, and HUMAN!!! I missed a couple of his calls, but he understood that I finally got some sleep. Money wasn’t even the first thing discussed. I’m so thankful that I knew to call them, since we had used them for my Dad a few years ago. Please keep this in mind, should you ever be in the situation I was in at the nursing home with them pressuring me! Carlos, thank you so much for making the hardest and most painful time in my life so much easier. It was one thing I didn’t have to worry about! I can’t recommend Neptune Society enough if you have to go through this.

I could not have been treated with such respect. My father arranged everything back in 2013. He just passed recently. From start to finish Beth truly made this a very easy process.

During these difficult times, yes you wish things would go faster, you need to breathe and understand these ladies are doing the best they can.

My hats off to the entire team, you are all so very special.

I am so grateful to the Neptune Society staff and particularly Raymond Scott for their help and compassion when my mom died unexpectedly. I inadvertently called the wrong society and my mom was picked up and taken to the wrong funeral home. When I realized the mistake, Mr. Scott took care of everything and got my mom to the correct place, and all arrangements were completed without causing me any more stress. I am very grateful and highly recommend them.
