I used Neptune Society when my mother died. I had no complaints. They were kind and gentle with me. I received what I assume were my mother's cremains in a timely fashion. The only issue I had was that I expected a fine powder. Instead, the cremains were more like tiny chips. I don't know if this is common but it certainly surprised me. I have made arrangements with Neptune Society to take care of whatever body parts are left (if any of my parts can be used by someone else).
