I would give them 0 stars if I could. I was treated with disrespect when my dad died. I was actually told to be quiet during our preliminary meeting. Disgraceful. They were uncaring and unkind.
When I called them about the gravestone that needed dad's date of death they told me they would have someone call me. Of course no one did call.
Steer clear of this business if you are looking for respect and kindness.
