Sonia was very caring and informative in helping me plan for my loved one's funeral arrangements. She explained all the services available and timelines. I would recommend Samaritan to any family looking for knowledgeable, compassionate, affordable care.

Sonia walked us through every single part of this difficult journey. She was truly amazing and helped us to give my mom the best services possible. All of the staff we encountered here were kind and compassionate. I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else the team here. Truly a blessing from start to finish.
