Elemental does not try to make you buy anything. No upselling. Kind people. Extra procedures beyond legal requirements to confirm the ashes you receive are of your loved one. For most people, finding a funeral home/crematory is not something we often do. We are vulnerable, often grieving when arranging for these services. You can trust Elemental.

They had a reassuring balance of professionalism and empathy. Their employee Dilara was especially exceptional - they were truly someone to lean on during this awful time. Emotionally, they were empathetic and caring in a very genuine way. Logistically, they handled all the details of our service in a clear, direct, and concise way. Being able to trust them made the process so much easier. Dilara also accommodated to our unique needs and requests - their flexibility and understanding went a long way in aiding our greiving process. Overall, Elemental is a commendable place to get these services done and Dilara is both a wonderful employee and human being.

My grandmother and uncle used a lot of time deliberating between every little detail of the headstone; it honestly took quite some time. Melanie was incredibly patient and did not rush the process. She gave everyone adequate time to make their final decision and was transparent about what was / wasn't included. Working with Melanie was very pleasant. A minor complaint was that I had to leave multiple messages in order to reach Melanie so I'm not sure if my messages were ever relayed. In the end, I had to reach out a fifth time before I finally spoke with Melanie. I'm sure they are always incredibly busy and do not fault them for this at all - it's just a mere FYI for anyone trying to contact them. Overall, I really enjoyed the process with Mount Pleasant.

At the time, I was such in distress and emotionally exhausted, so the thought of cold calling funeral homes was too much. I was extremely appreciative of the respectful and extremely helpful support I received from People's Memorial. They made the stressful time easy and simple. There was a particularly helpful person there by the name of Anthony (Queen Anne location) who I believe was interning as a funeral director. He was kind, gentle, and so responsive to emails. When I had to pick up the ashes of my loved one, he offered to divide out a smaller portion for scattering. If I had to do it again, I would definitely choose People's Memorial again...

We were completely dismayed to find the area where they are buried, covered in about 5 inches of decaying maple leaves. I used my shoe and tried to kick away the thick layer of debris, trying to expose her grandparents name plates. After about 15 minutes, we gave up. When I returned home, I went online and filled out a form that was right on their website and told them how unacceptable this was to my mother, and asking for someone to please reach out to me after it had been cleaned up so that we could try again.. It has been two weeks and no one has reached out to me regarding my concern with the lack of upkeep. So perhaps next year, I will call them and make sure the area has been maintained before driving the hour and a half.

And the price is quite high, over $4000 just for a simple burial of cremains (cremation done out of state, not by Evergreen Waschelli) in a plot that the family already owns.

I'm going there today and I'll bet that my mom's name is still not on the stone and that her obituary still won't be showing up on their website. Ugh

The boat is beautiful, spacious and very clean. Captain Miguel explained everything very clearly including the route, details about the safety equipments and facilities on the boat. The ride was very peaceful and pleasant for our whole family (even my 11-year old son who is prone to have motion sickness found the ride very comfortable). They have a life jacket ready for my son, too. We love that we were never rushed. The lower platform is low enough for us to be able to touch the water while scattering ashes. Thank you for the beautiful yellow roses to keep my mom company in the sea. It was definitely a lifetime memorable ride for mom and our whole family! Highly recommended especially if you are looking for a nice and safe ride to say goodbye to your loved one.

After our conversation we took a stroll around looking at the different sites available, found a nice spot and went inside to do the paperwork. We were in and out in a hour!
