Posting from California. Thank you all for everything you do. Death is not easy but you ensure that every step was as easy as could be for our family. Thank you Matt and thank you to the rest of the team.

A Natural State handled my father's burial during a very hard time. We as a family are still trying to grieve but Matt worked with us through the whole process and went above and beyond for us through this difficult time. They were quick, friendly, and affordable. Im actually from California and didn't know what to expect. Nobody should have to worry about such trivial matters while grieving but they made sure to do everything they could to give us peace of mind. 100% recommend for your family members. I emailed them the obituary I wrote for my father and they turned it into something beautiful. Notifying us at each step to ensure we understood everything and no steps were missed. Thank you very much.

This funeral home went above and beyond taking care of me and my family. My mom did her pre arrangements with them weeks before she passed away and she choose greatly. I rested easy knowing that she was in great hands with them the entire time and they showed me that daily. Kenny is the one that helped us the most but they were all amazing there. Would 100000 percent recommend them for your family needs.

Katie and Brianna are absolutely amazing. I made the mistake of using another place for my loved ones initial gathering of body. With the whopping price tag I was giving for simple cremation, I immediately called Hatcher. The team at Hatcher.. (Brianna and Katie) were my advocates for getting the DC signed off. Thank you Hatcher!! Wayne Tapp

They kept me going through this without anything to worry about. She was a blessing to do business with in such away,I think God for her.

They treated me and my husband as well respected, and I consider them as family. They took care of my husband as soon as I called them I gave them five stars, and they will always have a piece of my heart for taking care of my husband. The price is very reasonable and if any of my family members do get cremated or other friends, I will make sure they go there. They treat everybody with respect.

Verna was incredible! She made the whole process so easy, payment was a breeze, and I got my father's ashes and death certificates faster than I expected (less than a week after his death!), all at a super reasonable price. Highly recommend!

What a great experience! Caring, efficient, timely, kind and reasonably priced. We had positive memorable experiences with them and the transport company they used First Coast.

I had originally reached out to another company after several attempts they never returned my calls. First Coast cremation was very kind and helpful from the first call. Everything was handled quickly. The cost was competitive and in the same range as others. I would highly recommend First Coast cremation.

Google Reviewer

I chose First Coast Cremation in Macclenny, Fl. Well every time I used Google Maps it showed Jacksonville,Fl. It took me a few minutes to finally locate FCC located inside the funeral home on Chipshot drive. But the funeral home had NO numbers on the building much less FCC name on the outside of the building. The folks were SUPER friendly and efficient. Yes I would recommend them for their services. But it would be beneficial if the address was visible with the name of FCC on even a smaller sign that they are there. Thank you

When my dad passed away here in our home. When the nurse from Vitas called the Team from First Coast was there promptly and respectful to our loss. I will recommend them whole heartedly. Thank you First Coast.

Even though I wasnt able to use Just Cremation due to logistics, I feel called to leave this review so others will know what a true blessing they are. From the very first interaction, it was clear that this company is guided by compassion, humility, and Gods love. They are truly a blessing from the Lorda gift from God to every single person they come in contact with. In moments of loss, when hearts are heavy and strength feels far away, it matters who you are surrounded by. Just Cremation reflects grace, kindness, and care that goes far beyond business. Their presence alone brings comfort, and that is something only God can provide through people who serve with pure hearts. If you are in your time of need and require cremation services, I wholeheartedly encourage you to use Just Cremation. May God continue to bless the work of their hands and every family they serve.

Google Reviewer

Our experience was nothing but great. My mom knew what she wanted when she passed and it was just to be cremated with a simple family gathering to celebrate her life at home. Just cremations was professional and efficient and made the entire process as quick and easy as it can be. We didn't feel any pressure to do more which was very much appreciated. I would recommend them to anyone that is looking to have a loved one cremated.

Google Reviewer

They were prompt, easy to work with, answered all my calls and questions and did a great job with my dad.
