The SC Cremation Society team was amazing. They made us feel valued and cared for from the first contact. For such a hard time for the family, they went out of their way to help us. Unexpectedly, they have kept in touch with resources we needed, from what to do next, celebrating the life of our loved one, navigating financial issues. Very timely and appreciated, everything with dignity and grace.
