"I just to say thank you so much to the Cady cremation team. They were so helpful during our family's hard time. They took more calls from us then they should have and were helpful every time. Price was very reasonable."

"Taren handled all of our arrangements and was open, honest, and very easy to talk to. The facility itself is nothing too fancy, and that was perfect for us. They offer incredible keepsakes at very reasonable prices. Special requests were not a problem but there was never pressure to do anything we did not need or want. This facility also works flawlessly with the Tahoma National Cemetery. Hope you don't need them, but in case you do - our experience could not have been better."

I was treated with respect and was professionally guided through the entire process. The attentiveness to detail made the whole process much easier."
