What Our Families are Saying


I am very relieved and glad I found A Basic Cremation on google search after all.
I have inquired other funeral homes and felt discouraged and disappointed because they were just bunch of money grabbers with very friendly smiles. Be careful. It can be deceiving when you are emotional after losing a loved one.
Some reviews mentioned Preston, the owner, was rude and not personal because he went straight to a full detailed information and lots of it at once in terms of what next... he wasn't rude, he was giving an honest and very accurate steps without the fake small talks and smiles. Honestly, I found that very important especially when I was emotional and overwhelmed with my beloved grandmother's passing. I needed to know I am not being taken advantage of. Preston and his team have provided a caring service with respect and dignity by committing to only an honest and cost effective service. If you are searching for a simple cremation to trust your loved one to the final step, look no further. Our family is grateful for their patience too as we have made a few last minute changes and they were simply done for us. I hope this can help other families in their search. God Bless!

Preston was so much help in dealing with my mothers death, he was very caring, professional , and helped with things i have coming after the fact, 5 star all the way, eternally grateful to sir, god bless. 
I am truly pleased with the services provided by Preston and his team. First of all he was up front with what services would be provided and the costs. The were no extras or upselling of any sort. Most importantly, Preston made the whole process extremely smooth, and I felt he takes a genuine interest in helping, treating us with compassion, and the departed with dignity. Thank you on behalf of our family.
