Words cannot express how sincerely grateful we are and we cannot thank Joshua and his staff enough…read morefor understanding our situation with our son. Reflections Memorial Services came highly recommended to us from the Jackson County Medical Examiner's office and we found their expectations to be true. This family-run business was exactly what we were looking for and what we needed at the time. Their compassion and attention to every detail was very much appreciated and their professionalism in handling our case was beyond what we expected. Joshua and the staff handled our situation in a way that we feel was above and beyond. We are grateful for their sensitivity to our needs and expediting what could have been a very long process. Gratefully, Randy and Paula Garcia

You get what you pay for with this place. When my FIL died they said his brother(who I'll call D)…read morecame in and paid for all services and that my FILs ashes would be ready to be picked up that next week. When those days came and went and we didn't get any phone calls we called them to see what is up. They apologized and said that it was the wrong uncle D (same first name) and it was another family member that was paid for, not my FIL, all while giving us the first and last names of some other family they were doing services for durring this time. They told us for the inconvenience we could have the $20 death certificate for free. We gave them the benefit of the doubt. Since we unexpectedly needed to pay $1000 we needed two days for our bank to transfer funds so we asked if that would delay the cremation process. We were told that it would NOT delay the cremation process and that my FIL would again be ready for pick up in a few days. The next week after still not ever getting a single phone call or courtesy call we called back AGAIN to see why he wasn't ready. We were told he hadn't even been cremated yet as we hadn't paid...if we knew it needed sent we would have paid it the first week. It took FIVE times of them telling us he would be ready before I was actually able to pick up the ashes. When I was told my FIL was ready to pick up I was never given a time or appointment. When I showed up I had to sit in the car with my 1 year old for 35 minutes because he still wasn't even there... of course after mentioning all this to the owner he, like stated before me, did not take responsibility. I was told his rececptionist didn't tell us any of that and that that didnt happen, and that because he "trains his staff so well" he "knows it wasn't a mistake on their end". He had some sticky note with "9-2" written on it and said that he wasn't there because it wasn't my appointment time and that's my fault. He did let me know that payment before cremation was in the fine print we signed, which of course is our fault for not reading, yes, but the fact that we obviously didnt know that and specifically asked and was told it wouldnt delay the process was so wrong. My FIL layed in a freezer for 2 weeks before he was finally ready 15 days later. The owner also went on to tell me information about the previous Google reviews and how he's in a lawsuit with them and why..not sure about that but either way he was giving out MORE INFORMATION about other people that he did services for! If I knew he would tell me that much about others I wouldn't have trusted him with our family member or our family information! Also the "Urn" we paid for was just a thin black plastic box with their sticker on it.. Aaannnndddd...que the denial response

I can say that here that meets their mission. He provided a breakdown of the cost of direct cremation, which by far is the most economical (affordable) cost in the entire metro. Their services are the same as others, simply meeting the needs of the community of which the business resides. Upon my research of other funeral and cremation businesses, where the line items are the same, it's just location and not necessarily the quality. Just my opinion.

My father in law passed away in the evening at his assistant living facility & I had to call for a funeral home to pick him up. Serenity arrived there in a timely fashion & was very empathic to us.

During all of my questions, changes to the obituary, etc. Mr. Akins, Curtis & other staff remained extremely helpful, understanding & professional. You don't find this type of customer service in very many businesses in today's time. I feel more then confident to take anyone of my family members to Serenity when that time comes.
