I am so glad my husband had a prepaid cremation plan with the Neptune Society. Amy was so kind and attended to several of the details to take the burden from me at the time of my husband’s death. Amy kept me updated every step of the way. Thank you!

I must commend all of you at Neptune for all of your services. Even though I am fortunate to live in such a caring environment here at Blue Skies, families who are coping alone must be lost finding themselves in such a bleak situation. Your daily messages have been very pertinent, and much appreciated.
Again, thank you all very much.

From the moment your team arrived at my home to pick up my husband I was treated with great empathy and respect. The team treated my husband with the same, they were very careful to ensure privacy while moving him and when they left there was a rose left on his pillow, very touching. Thank you. Upon arriving at the Palm Harbor office and meeting Veronica Williams all benefits were explained graciously and with genuine care. She was instrumental in finding an honor guard to provide a rifle volley for my husband who had spent 27 years in the United States Navy. Thanks to her I was able to honor him as he deserved. I highly recommend the Neptune Society. Thank you again.

My mom passed recently and thank goodness she had chosen Neptune to take her on her final trip. Since I lived out of state it was very difficult to deal with all the issues and problems that come with a sudden passing. Tamar at Reno was a hidden blessing. She was there for questions and requests and help make the whole process a bit easier. She let me know about things I should know but didn’t when it comes to the business side of things. I can never thank her enough. Tamar made a very difficult time, easier all around.

My wife passed away unexpectedly. Fortunately, we were just discussing pre-planning our funerals the week prior, so I knew she wanted the Neptune Society to take care of her. She had been impressed by the Neptune Society’s professionalism when her father had passed away a couple years ago. When my son and I called to make arrangements, we spoke to Jason who guided us through the process. He could not have been more accommodating or understanding and I really felt my wife would be treated with dignity and respect. I can’t thank Jason enough for all his help and I completely recommend the Neptune Society.

My sister & I were immediately put at ease when we met with Jason regarding some complicated circumstances regarding our father’s passing. He made us feel calm as soon as we sat down, he was very professional, informative, and was quick to respond with all the follow-up details.
