  Making your final arrangements is not an easy thing to do unless you are dealing with Butch Kenney. Butch is one of the most professional sales people I have ever meet and made the process extremely easy for both me and my wife. If you have not pre-planned your final arrangements you should call Butch today...

  My Mother Passed On, on June 22, 2013. She had a prepaid contract with The National Cremation Society, at 2990 Bee Ridge Rd., Sarasota. They were very helpful, took care of all the details as promised, and delivered the ashes and 13 copies of the Death Certificates in a very timely manner. Some out of state siblings were able to arrive here without any scheduling problems caused by The Cremation Society. All went well, in a difficult time. I personally made my own arrangements with them today, based on my personal experience dealing with them. I would describe their service with my Mother, as timely, helpful, and professional. PS- I checked with my sister who also dealt with them before writing this. She is in agreement.

  Your representative Sandy Lange came to see me at my home . My husband was in the hospital at the time with a stroke after surgery. I wanted to take care of cremations for the both of us. She was very pleasant . I felt comfortable with her. Going through something like this is very unsettling. Plus I was on medication at the time.
  I explained that I only wanted the biodegradable boxes as we were going to be buried in the church gardens , and they just dump the ashes in a hole . She explained that they had a memory box that contained a Urn, little wood box and it was cherrywood. Very nice for mementos. I said I didn't need anything like that as no one in the family would want it. I just needed the biodegradable box. She said ok.
  She then had me sigh my initials on a bunch of papers. Did I read them ? NO I was not in any condition to and I trusted her. my bill for the two of us ended up at $4,454.00.When the boxes were delivered, I couldn't believe it. I called her and she said well that is what you ordered. I said no, i only wanted the biodegradable box. She suggested I give it to my children, I said they don't want it. So then she suggested that I give it to Goodwill.
  I called the company and talked to Catherine, I told her the whole thing and she said the same thing .... donate it to goodwill . I feel that they were not honest with me and took advantage of someone who was in a very upsetting time of their lift. Would I recommend them?
  NO I WOULD NOT. I would not recommend them unless you have a lawyer with you.
  The reason that there is one star is because the site won't post it unless you give something.

  Our loved one pasted 2/2, she had everything in a trust, all we needed was the death certificate to pay her bills and settle the estate . On 2/13 we were told the certificate was in the mail. We called on 2/21 because the certificate had not arrived, now they are saying it was sent 2/19, it is 2/22, we still have not received it. Three weeks and no Death Certificate, we were told it would take 7-10 days. We had to pay many of the bills out of our own pocket, had to move money out of saving to do it.
  
  I do not recommend this place.
