Casper Funeral & Cremation Services were a great help when we experienced the loss of our mother. I live out of state and they were very helpful and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend their services.
My father, Eric Daniel Berard Sr. Passed on 1/11/2026. My father and I didnt have the best of means to provide him more than cremation. At the surprise of his passing Casper was the single only company that didnt try to screw me and take advantage of the grief. For $1400, they did everything they said they would in their package. Ive experienced zero extra fees, and Ive appreciated their patience and work with me throughout this process. Thank you Casper, for caring and not gouging me.
The staff at Casper were very helpful and respectful in navigating something I had no idea where to begin. I spoke with Colton the first time and a couple other times during questions i had. This staff made dealing with this so much easier during a very difficult time. They helped make the process of paperwork and anything that needed to be done as easy as possible. Thank you to all the staff at Casper for your assistance with the loss of my mom. Your empathy and ease of which you made things was extremely helpful and appreciated.
