Both my parents used the Neptune Society for their cremation, and I was present at both their deaths. It was so easy for us; everything was taken care of quickly, easily and dignified. So when I was contacted, I immediately asked for information and ultimately signed up. Greg came by and there was no pressure or hard sell! I also appreciate that you have payment plans. And I am grateful that my kids will not have to go through the time or effort to decide what I wanted when I die. Thank you!

During the most difficult time of someone’s life Neptune Society made things so easy. Their professionalism was outstanding and they did the best to make you feel comfortable. In addition, all the major tasks you worry about they handled. What a relief for our family during a stressful time. Since my father’s passing I have purchased services for myself and my sister to hopefully make it easy on whoever takes care of my affairs.

– Stan of Concord, NC

My parents both have the service from Neptune and when my father recently passed away, I dealt with Julie at the Kansas City office, Missouri, and she was amazing. You just don’t know what to do at times like this and she went above and beyond… Everything was taken care of by Neptune and we didn’t have to make any decision. It’s difficult enough when you lose a loved one, so having all of that stuff already spelled out was nice.

I saw the frustration and stress my nephews were going through to get their mom cremated who lived out if town. They thought everything was taken care of. I want to be responsible and make an already difficult time easier for my daughters. I provided a copy of the contract to them, I have my urn and I provided them with Neptune’s contact info. The best part is that it’s transferrable to other states. Check it out.

For years my father-in-law would tell us, “When the time comes, each of you kids has my Neptune card, all you have to do is call them and they will take care of the rest.” That day came for my mother-in-law and 5 months later for my father-in-law. We called the number and Neptune took care of the rest, just like my father-in-law said they would. What a relief for our family not to have to deal with undertakers, cremation details, death certificates, and notifying Social Security, like we had done when both my parents passed away. I became a believer. We signed up, then my older sister signed up…then my younger sister and her husband signed up…then my brother and his wife signed up….all within a week! Yes, I should have been given a commission of a free Neptune card for myself. My older sister said, “Now we can get together and trade our Neptune cards like we used to trade baseball cards!” Peace of mind knowing that we have responsibly taken care of this important detail….and that it all paid for in advance. Now I am telling my children….”When the time comes, each of you kids has my Neptune card, all you have to do is call them and they will take care of the rest.”

Neptune Society, without prior arrangements, was used for my mother and grandmother at their deaths. I was satisfied with the ease of the service and price. I was shocked that the price had doubled over the past 12 years. That made me hesitate, but I trust your service and products and felt I could find no better. I had priced cremation services when I bought a vault earlier this year at a local cemetery. Not only was the price higher, but they insisted on pricey extras that I did not want.

Neptune Society took all my fear and worry away. I was able to grieve in peace without worrying about any of the procedures that we planned previous to my husbands departure. I have encouraged many of my friends and family members to reach out to Neptune Society

Losing a loved one is very difficult and can leave you feeling vulnerable or overwhelmed with all the options available. If you know that your loved one wanted to be cremated, then Neptune Society is the place to go. The staff is kind and professional. There are options for extras, but we felt no pressure to buy anything. We did choose to purchase a few items and were pleased with the quality. Gabriella (Bandera Road site/San Antonio) is supportive and patient when working with you. She does an excellent job of explaining what is included in each package. If you need to make a change, she is prompt to respond to your needs, making it so much easier. We were pleased with all the help that she provided and would definitely recommend the Neptune Society to others.

After losing my sister who had no pre-arranged needs, I saw firsthand the experience my niece went through trying to raise funds to cremate her mother. I did not want my children to have to go through that. Neptune Society makes it possible to make very low payments so you do not have to pay the full amount upfront. We travel across the US and into Canada and Mexico so knowing that we would be returned home if we passed while traveling was a big plus for us. The cost is very comparable and I highly recommend the Neptune Society.

Dear Raymond Scott of Neptune Society, It is our utmost honor to extend gratitude to you for the dignity, respect, and care you have given our family, and most importantly have shown to our beloved mother Virginia during her transition. The sincerest concern you displayed in presenting our mother to us during her viewing was so honorable and beautiful, that it will be engraved in our heartfelt memories forever. The way you arranged her make-up, her beautiful natural look, her jewelry with accent flowered hat, the Bible, and anointing oil she held, showed you really cared about her details as if it was your own family member. From the bottom of our hearts, we express our deepest appreciation to you Raymond for your genuine professionalism, your promptness, your courtesy, and your return calls. You have surely helped make our experience more bearable, as we love our mother far beyond words. As we continue our journey with you, we would like to thank you in advance for sincerely helping us during this unforgettable motherly season we are going through. God bless you, Virginia’s daughters Sondra L. and Carolyn L.

The process was so amazingly simple. Carolyn made a hard situation so much easier than we thought. Our loved one died unexpectedly in another state and all of the arrangements were made. We simply had to wait for her to make her calls and our loved one arrived at us within a week and a half. We have already recommended this service to other loved ones, especially those who travel, and will make arrangements for ourselves using Neptune.
