Our customers love us, and the feeling’s mutual.

The process was so easy and the representative was knowledgeable, patient and kind. Definitely would recommend this company to everyone.

Kathy

The advantages and reasonable prices of After coupled with an extraordinary care specialist (Assael) made my selection of mortuary services one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. How fortunate I was to find them !

Pam M.

AFTER.COM is a very caring company. Empathy boundless, patience extraordinary...as a medical professional I was profoundly impressed.

Dina M.

You guys did a fine job by me. Communication was great. One huge, impressive point of your service is Cadence. They are invaluable and have helped me immensely. Kudos to Jared at After. Thank you all for helping me when I really was lost.♥️

Robin

I will be forever grateful for my experience with After. We were treated with so much tenderness and care. Thank you all so much for making the hard part of death a gentle experience.

No suggestions, my experience was the best it could be, under the circumstances! I would say, keep up the good work! Those grieving are in need of your service! Thank you, Mary

Mary

Everything was great. Jared was so caring, knowledgeable, and understanding. He was the perfect person to deliver my Mom to me. He is excellent.

Maria

Your service after Nancy's passing far exceeded my expectations and gave me such comfort - the gentleman who picked up Nancy was the consummate and caring professional. That is my final memory of Nancy... Words can't the comfort I feel. Pure grace!

Michael E.

The plans are very inexpensive and it's a great peace of mind knowing the family is not going to have to make those kinds of arrangements. They're very friendly and helpful on the phone and the signing up process is very simple!

Sandy G.

Very nice people to work with, my son-in-law's father passed away recently and I helped with getting the cremation arranged and they were very kind and easy to work with. Afterwards I realized I should probably make arrangements for my own cremation!
