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.

I had cremated remains of my mom in my home, in an urn, and wanted to have them interred next to my…read moredad at Mt. Moriah, where they owned a plot for her. I was over 600 miles away, in Denver. It was hard to get up the courage to make that first phone call to them! They made it so much easier. I will never forget Susan Highberger's humor and kindness, she was wonderful! After emailing and telephoning back and forth for a couple months, we came up with gorgeous results for my mom. I was overwhelmed by the marker, the flowers in the vase and the spectacular view of the cemetery. The trees!! What I had dreaded became one of my favorite accomplishments.

Funeral planning is always a sorrowful experience but having a good funeral home to entrust your…read moreloved one to after death takes away so much worry. Everyone was kind and empathetic, answering the many questions we had but Heather and John were especially knowledgable. Pricing was transparent and we were provided an itemized cost sheet.

Beware: salesman tactics. I went to the website which doesn't list any pricing; So I filled out the…read moreonline form to have someone call me back. They called and they asked if this was now or future planning which I said future planning and I said I would like to see a list of pricing of services and they said well it depends on what you needing (FIRST RED FLAG). Then I said I'm looking for "DIRECT CREMATION WITH ALL INCLUSIVE PRICING) and she said "What we want is to schedule a time for you to come in" (RED FLAG). The moment she said "We want" it was no longer what *I* wanted, especially when I said I was looking for direct cremation with all-inclusive pricing. Why do i need to come in? Why can't you email me what I exactly what I asked for. I said "NO NO...WE ARE DONE!!!!! Any funeral sales persons acts like that. YOU KNOW its buyer beware! They shouldn't be afraid you send you pricing and emailing you what you ask for. This is still Covid and not having to come in is ridiculous now days. I'm not paying for salesmen, I'm paying for funeral services!!!! You might want to learn from that!!!

I am a licensed funeral director in both Missouri and Kansas and I was very impressed with the cremation society, how they did business and especially Candice our funeral director. She exhibited The perfect blend of friendliness and yet efficiency and competence.

There are no words for what the professionals at Amos provide. Losing a loved one is always…read moredifficult, but the staff at Amos are compassionate, patient, and truly skilled in dealing with grieving families. From the initial shock and planning, to the execution of a tribute video, printing prayer cards and programs at the last minute, arranging mementos, directing the service, to (most importantly), preparing your loved one and honoring them, they are an absolute gift. We were very blessed to work with Eryn and she was incredible. If you have to go through this difficult process, I cannot recommend them enough.

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. It's already hard for you as your grieving so thank God that there is a place that makes this part easy.
