From the first phone call to the day Nanas ashes were picked up we were treated with patience and the utmost dignity and professionalism. Thank you!!!
Kevin and Elizabeth at Des Moines Cremation have been wonderful to work with upon my mother's passing. We had nothing planned so were checking online, calling different companies and comparing prices for value. Des Moines Cremation was not only the most affordable but made the entire process very easy to navigate, they even refunded money when we chose an unnecessary service. I would highly recommend Des Moines Cremation if you find yourself in need of their services.
We recently used the services of Des Cremation for a dear friend who passed unexpectedly. We were completely unprepared to plan a funeral. The staff was very caring, helpful and professional. They made a sad, difficult, stressful process as simple as possible. I recommend their services without hesitation.
