They were very helpful guiding us through the process and answering questions. Very respectful.

Google Reviewer

Alternative Cremation was so considerate to us. Our family member passed without a will or power of attorney in place, so things have been very stressful on the family. But their team made everything a seamless process so we were able to focus on putting our loved one to rest. I HIGHLY recommend using them not only for this reason, but because they are the most affordable place in such a difficult time.

This is the best funeral home for anyone who is wondering. We went to 2 different funeral homes before this and the other 2 didnt have the best vibes. The first one we went to the owner was too busy trying to sell how the funeral home looked rather than being sympathetic and listening to what we wanted. The second one wasnt accommodating at all. When we came to angelus they were very sympathetic and accommodated everything we wanted. We felt good about this place as soon as we walked in. Thank you so much to Tanya, Veronica, and staff who helped us every step of the way and we didnt have to worry about anything going wrong.

My family is very thankful for this compassionately operated crematorium. Everyone we interacted with was kind and helpful. We highly recommend them.

Google Reviewer

Excellent place, genuine caring people. Price was very fair. I am very selective about the companies I will do business with. Yes, price is important, but for me, the quality of interactions through all levels of employees is a solid indication of good, humble, caring, leadership. I think this is a mom and pop style place, but even if it isn't, the fact that it feels that way speaks volumes. Thank you for helping my family.

Google Reviewer

I just wanted to thank simply cremation for taking care of my Mom. I'm an only child and they had been super helpful. Justin was kind enough to put my Mom's Ashes into the urn for me. I can tell he is really respectful and cares about the work he does. He validated my feelings and spent time with me today even though i know he was running late. I never once felt rushed. Thank you all for making this a peaceful journey. You can tell that they are an honest company even my moms life insurance, and hospice team recommended them. I would 100% trust your loved ones with this team.

I highly recommend Evergreen. From the first call, Michelle treated our family with incredible compassion, patience, and respect. Every detail was handled with top notch care. Michelle was not only professional but what stood out was most was her genuine helpfulness and kindness. I am so thankful for her!

Google Reviewer

I will say my experience with Evergreen was very good. From the moment my brother and I arrived we were treated with sympathy and respect. Having to bury a loved one is by far one of the hardest things I think a person can go through. Be realistic with your expectations in the process. Nobody is perfect. What helped us was having a plan in mind before we even showed up. The hardest part was having a dollar amount in mind. I can say with certainty, as hard as it may be, the more things you can try and figure out before you get there the easier it will be to figure out the finer details. Michelle and the entire staff were there for us every time we had a question or needed to stop in for something. I personally can't say enough about Michelle, she will always have a special place in my heart. While going through our process I was a mess at times and like an angel she was there. It didn't matter if I needed a hug or words of encouragement. Remember if anything that the Evergreen staff are

My mother passed away and the Shrine of Remembrance did an excellent job taking care of my father and I. Their Olympian Plaza Reception Center (which is directly across the street from the main chapel, crematory, and mausoleum) is exquisite. The food and facility is excellent. I also learned they have been hosting the Pikes Peak Jazz and Swing Society there every second Sunday of the month for over 15 years. Its comforting knowing that the cremation is done on property by their staff - unlike other crematories my friends and relatives have worked with in the past. Their director Matthew, staff, and chefs took the time to properly serve our family and gave my father peace of mind during a difficult time. I have been to other funeral parlors and receptions and they just do not compare. I would highly recommend their services.

Google Reviewer

Through the years I've attended many funerals at several different funeral homes in and around Colorado Springs. The Shrine of Remembrance stands out from the rest. After attending another service there recently, I engaged one of their staff members and asked a few questions as I was curious what they do to make it so very special. The biggest take away was learning that the vast majority of the funeral homes in the area are owned by corporations from out of state. The Shrine of Remembrance as a family owned and operated funeral home has the ability to be much more flexible in serving the needs of the families they serve. In fact, there are three generations of the family members working there. If you know anything about small family run businesses, you know this is a rarity. The other important take away was that The Shrine of Remembrance cares for the departed in house, meaning weather the request for the departed is to be buried in a casket or cremated, the preparation and care f
