    Kevin and his staff at Des Moines Cremation were so professional and did not push anything on me. I told them exactly what I could spend and they did not make me feel like I was not doing enough for my husband when he passed away. They have checked on me during this last year seeing if I needed anything at all. I will use them for my cremation when it’s my turn to leave this world. Also I wanted to say the young ladies that came to pick my hubby up was so professional and very caring. Explained everything to me before they ever even entered my home. They treated him like he was still here and cared for him as well.

They will also be a helping hand during my Dads Celebration of Life Ceremony in the near future. Kevin and Elizabeth have also followed up with me several times since his passing to...read full review
