I can not tell you how golden their services are! During this stressful time making decisions is tough. They us quickly and respectfully immediately following the death to find our way through all the options. The biggest challenge for us was preparing for and carrying out the memorial/visitation/funeral etc. even with lots of family and friends there to help. They worked respectfully in the background setting up and tearing down flowers, photos, guest books, prayer cards, etc. so quietly and quickly. When we needed help making decisions every step of the way they had the experience to guide us and looking back on everything now we are satisfied and happy with how everything went. They bring good quality items and arrange everything beautifully . We highly recommend Salmon and Wright!

they have texted again. hmm. I suspect that they got my number from a funeral I attended about 5…read moreyears ago. And I let this review sit a few months after drafting. While I was at the funeral, my mind wandered. I calculated how much they were paid and how many hours it would take to do what they were doing. I tried to be generous, but may have not included enough hidden costs. I got around $100/hour. Now, I realise that some capital is used, such as a hearse, and a coffin showroom, and some labor is skilled, but most of the labor (that I saw) was unskilled, like standing and looking solemn. delivering flowers, maintaining a storefront. And I reliased during the funeral that all the calls for reform of this business are probably very appropriate, or that all of their workers are salaried. so, yes, I could provide details and then one person will no longer get spam texts from them (me), but sometimes you get one chance to get it right. I've been in a couple of place where the food was poorly done, and we said it was ok, because we could not interrupt the meeting, both emotionally and because there was not time. Somehow, helping these folks remove me from their spam list seems like that. This message partially brought to you as a work avoidance method, and by another spam text from them. if you need details to remove me, you are using an opt-out method and not an opt-in method.

Father in law died in late June, 2020. My husband dealt with this company through email and phone…read morecalls, texts as we live out of town. They were very responsive and helpful. At end of graveside service, I thanked them profusely for their services. Previously had used Neptune society for my own parents. It was nice to have details taken care of and felt relief at not having to worry about all the little things. However, I felt like a fool the next day when we realized the funeral director had the flowers in his trunk the whole time. He was busy socializing with our family and friends and he forgot to take them out of his car. There were no flowers at the graveside for the service!!! Can't believe we didn't realize at the time. Blaming grief for that. Will get a refund for the flowers but never have gotten an apology from the actual person who made the mistake. I know everyone is human and we all make mistakes but this was his JOB! No apology from that guy is what really ticks me off now tbh. Trying to forgive but can't seem to forget. My heart is still hurting from this. Definitely thinking Neptune society is the better choice for myself and my spouse after dealing with this funeral home.

I'm very glad to report that all in our family are very glad for her choice. Being a pastor in another state I can tell you from experience that not all funeral homes are run smoothly nor is it a given that they are sensitive to the depth of emotional needs of the family. Steve Hines and his staff are not only professionally proficient in the treatment of our loved one who passed, but also extremely caring to everyone in our family during our grief. They did a fantastic job with all the preparations, and have gone the extra mile in helping us through some of the financial and legal matters required of us at this time. We were very blessed Mom made this choice easy for us. Thanks, Mom and thank you Steve and your staff.

She just wasn't interested in my complaint. They had to weed whack around headstones because the mower doesn't mow near the headstones. I have two plots there and ready to sale, the place is a dump
