Testimonials
We are always interested in hearing from the families that we serve.
Please take a moment to let us know how well we served you in your time of need. We very much appreciate your feedback.
I can’t recommend Gary enough to entrust your beloved pets to. He treated my dog with the same dignity and compassion, one would expect for any family member.
The cremation package you receive, is very personalized for each family, and very beautiful and touching.
Gary, thank you for your outstanding treatment and services during such a difficult time, and thank you for ensuring I was actually receiving my dog Chase back.
Hands down the best funeral home I've ever been to. Very professional, caring ,and considerate. Very nice, warm,and clean. Thank you for your amazing service.
Gary has been wonderful in handling the cremation of several of our family pets. Highly recommend. Always available, personalized service, and the returns are very thoughtful keepsakes of our lost family member.
Thanking Gary Best for his handling of the cremation of our much loved Quinn. A kind and caring man who presented us with a neck chain ornament with a small charm containing Quinn’s ashes, a beautiful inscribed wood box containing Quinn’s ashes, and a touching print of Quinn’s foot pad, (that made me cry), it was a wonderful tribute to our faithful family member. I would and will recommend Gary’s services to anyone wanting a caring and compassionate person to handle the cremation of their pet family member…Thank you Gary
Friends suggested that we take our dog to Gary for cremation and wow were they right! Gary was so compassionate and kind so we knew he would take care of our baby girl (Coco-14 1/2 year old). Not only did he go above and beyond in the services he provided for cremation last fall, but we also received an ornament with her name on it at Christmas. Can't say enough positive things about Gary helping to make an awful situation a little easier! This place is truly the Best!
Thank you for the Bella ornament .
Nice surprise.
Thank you for the Xmas ornament in Pinkies name. It was a pleasant suprise.
Gary came highly recommended by several friends who just recently lost pets. Gray was so understanding and made everything so easy, even for a blubbering idiot like myself. When I got Capone back it warmed my heart...Everything was so professional and Gary didn't miss a beat! He collected everything I could of possibly wanted to remember my sweet Kittie by...Thank you so much Gary for making this alittle easier for me! God Bless you and what you do for me and other!🙏🏻
