Excellent4.9★★★★★ Based on 420 reviews fromJudy BallJudy Ball ★★★★★ Absolutely amazing to deal with. The staff were very kind and understanding, not pushy. They were up front about pricing and the process. And they had everything we needed ready to go when we got there. It made the process much easier, and for that, we are thankful.Response from the ownerWe are so glad to have been able to make some part of the process easier for you. Please take care and stay safe. Aaron RogersAaron Rogers ★★★★★ The staff was wonderful. They worked really well with my family in fulfilling my mother’s request. I would have no problem recommending their services to others facing similar challengesResponse from the ownerWe are honored to have fulfilled her wishes and make the process easier for you and your family. Pamela CollinsPamela Collins ★★★★★ My husband recently passed away. I can't say enough about Heritage. They are kind and compassionate. They helped make a really bad situation a little bit better. Losing a spouse is hard. I'm also handicapped. They came to my home so I could sign the paperwork, all to make it easier since I'm disabled. I appreciate all of you. I hope to not need this service again, but if I do, I will return. Thank you so much for your empathy and compassion to me in this horrible and unexpected situation. 💜 I also appreciate that they took his fingerprints. I ordered the most adorable teddy bear with my husband's fingerprint on a charm around the bears neck. I hug my bear when I'm crying, and I feel closer to him. It's amazing the things they can do today to give a part of your loved one back to you. It's so important. And the price is the most reasonable out of everyone. You get the same service you'd get anywhere else, honestly, maybe even better, and at a price you can afford. Thank you so much!Response from the ownerPamela we are so honored to care for your husband and helping you during this difficult time. Again, please accept our deepest sympathies.

They made everything so easy for us to get through, and the price was amazingly low compared to other places. They say you get what you pay for, but with Heritage Cremation and Burial you get so much more. Their prices are very low, but that is in contrast to their standards, which are very high. They were absolutely the best in one of our worst times. They have a wide array of services to fit any budget.

Tom Gibson is the best. He walks you through everything and is so helpful. After Tom originally helped me Beverly took it from there and she was very patient with me.

Garret NastaliGarret Nastali ★★★★★ Friendly staff, helped my grandpa during a challenging time.Response from the ownerGarret,Thanks for your kind words and 5 stars. We really appreciate it. Rashaune MooreRashaune Moore ★★★★☆ My mom passed away on 7/19 and always told us she wanted to be cremated and spread in the ocean. We looked through numerous places and found that Heritage was the most inclusive and affordable place to have her wishes carried out. I learned a lot about preplanning and post-planning and how different they are. I spoke with Thomas initially, as he is the person who handles the preplanning stages, but my mom passed before we could finalize any plans so I was then transferred to Ashley who helped with post death plans. She was very helpful, I just think a thing or 2 got lost in the shuffle, but she was always very helpful and followed up. I will say that it's a good idea to have your own location for a memorial service picked out. I was under the impression that there were multiple places in the Akron area they contracted with but really there was only 1 church and it was booked on the weekend we requested. So I was left to find my own place anyways, but they refunded that part of the payment and all is well. Over all I will say that Heratige gives you the most for price and I would recommend them to anyone looking for an affordable, respectable location for Cremation of your loved one.Response from the ownerHi Rashaune, thank you for your kind review. We strive to keep things as simple as possible for grieving families. As you mentioned, it is helpful having your wishes made known and preplanning taken care of ahead of time. It takes guesswork and decision making out of the process for grieving families. With that said, we do not contract with churches or event facilities. We do however, have a chapel in Louisville (just outside of Canton). With direct cremation, it is the family or decedent's choice on where services are held. Again, please accept our deepest sympathies on the loss of your mother. We are honored to have cared for her and would be happy to help you in the future with any preplanning needs. Take care and stay safe. Lori OwensLori Owens ★★★★☆ Preplanning my dad's arrangements made him feel more in control of his last months of life. Folks at the Louisville location made this simple. When Dad passed, they came on a HOLIDAY with no complaint and respectfully removed his body from his house. He got to die at home, as he wanted, in little pain, though a bit more quickly than we expected. Heritage handled the paperwork well and made us feel important throughout the ordeal. 10/10 would recommend again!Response from the ownerThank you for your kind words, Lori. It is always our goal to make sure everything is kept as simple as possible during difficult times. Once again, please accept our deepest sympathies on the loss of your father. Take care and stay safe. Francine SpringerFrancine Springer ★★★★★ Very professional, and helped me will questions. Special thank you to Ashley though this difficult time. 5+starsMonica Edgar LiggettMonica Edgar Liggett ★★★★★ A wonderful group of people to help in any way they can.Debbie WebbDebbie Webb ★★★★★ Very nice and friendly,Response from the ownerDebbie,It is so kind of you to share these words and 5 stars. We work hard to earn them. Erica AndersonErica Anderson ★★★★★ Very efficient, compassionate, professional. Available 24/7, phone service after hours is prompt at delivering messages and calls are returned right away. Also extremely affordable. Highly recommend.Response from the ownerThank you, Erica. It is always our goal to remain compassionate and professional while working with families. Again, please accept our deepest sympathies on the loss of your loved one. Take care and stay safe. Shirl BerryShirl Berry ★★★★★ The staff at Heritage Cremation was so knowledgeable and kind. She helped me through every step of the process.

They came to his home to pick him up, we watched as they gently wrapped him in a white sheet and carried him down his front steps to the gurney. Amy, the office person, called me the next morning and we went over everything on the phone. I completed the online paperwork and then my father's ashes were delivered to my home. Every person I encountered was very kind and professional. If I ever have the need again, I will definitely use Heritage Cremation.Response from the ownerThank you for your review, Beth.

TRNimenTRNimen ★★★★★ Finding and communicating with a funeral parlor while grieving is never an easy thing to do, but Helen at Heritage Cremation Society was understand, sensitive, and efficient with walking me through the necessary steps for my sister's cremation.She was particularly helpful when the hospital, while overwhelmed with covid cases, missed a detail on the death certificate, which held up the process. She contacted the hospital on our behalf to have the correction made so that the cremation could take place.While I hope to never need them again, if I did, I would trust them to help me with this very important rite of passage most of us face at one time or another. Additionally, when in the future (the very distant future, God willing) I pass too, my loved ones would do well to contact Heritage Cremation Society to cremate me.Response from the ownerWe are deeply honored to have been able to care for your loved one. Thank you for entrusting us with her care. Take care and stay safe. Linda JonesLinda Jones ★★★★★ Their very caring and professional staff.

Lynne FiskeLynne Fiske ★★★★★ My father passed away after a short illness and though our plan was always to have him cremated, we had no idea where to go for that service. We found Heritage Cremation Society online with an office nearby and called them along with some other cremation businesses. Heritage was so helpful with ALL our questions and their price was better than almost all the others we spoke to. With covid being an issue, we were able to do EVERYTHING by email which made things much easier. They went above and beyond by comparing newspaper prices for obituaries and actually placing the obit in the paper of our choosing. Although they offered a wide variety of urns on their site, they had no problem with us ordering an urn from Amazon that would match my mother's urn. I can't say enough good things about their service---They took a stressful time in our lives and made it as simple as it could be! Thank you Heritage Cremation Society!Response from the ownerLynne, thank you for your kind review! We are always glad to help and your review confirms to us that what we are doing is making a difference for families. Please take care and stay safe. Kim HillKim Hill ★★★★★ I am so glad I chose Heritage to take care of my husband after his passing. Everyone is friendly and helpful and they took care of a lot of things I would have had to do myself otherwise, including contacting the US Army and arranging for him to be interred with full military honors. When it's my time, I want my family to contact them as well. Highly recommended!Response from the ownerKim, thank you for your kind review.

Megan ThompsonMegan Thompson ★★★★★ I chose Heritage Cremation Society because they were the most cost-effective service in my area. Throughout this difficult process, Heritage Cremation Society did absolutely everything in their power to make it easier on me. They allowed my roommate to handle all of the initial arrangements for my mother's cremation and only required me when it came to legal paperwork. They kept me apprised of every step throughout the process and made the invoicing easy. When it came time for them to deliver my mother's remains, the woman who came to my home was sympathetic, sweet, and patient with me as we went over the paperwork and death certificate. I HIGHLY recommend Heritage to anyone in need of these services!Durene MotsisDurene Motsis ★★★★★ From start to finish John Falk and his entire staff has been wonderful.

After being quoted almost $4,000 for simple cremation services at the nearest funeral home I was thrilled to find Heritage online. Not only was it very affordable they came to my home to fill out the paperwork and delivered to the home as well. Everyone on the staff was very kind. I would highly recommend.Gaylen EmondGaylen Emond ★★★★★ When my sister'a husband passed recently, I offered to navigate the task of researching and coordinating the cremation process for her. One less thing for her to worry about in her time of grief and uncertainty.I asked around and was recommended Heritage Cremation Society by a friend who had used them for her father's service. I did some online research that suggested they were both reasonable and respected.My own personal experience proved why. They had the most competitive price by far. But their level of sensitivity and service was outstanding. I could not have asked for more. They walked me through the online forms needed, answered my questions, and followed up with phone calls and emails every step of the way.It turned out to be a simple process during a difficult time. The Heritage Cremation Society were affordable, helpful, and had great customer service. I would use them again and recommend them without hesitation.Holly GHolly G ★★★★★ Everyone we dealt with was incredibly kind and sympathetic.

They are very nice and take care of everythingKelly MerrittKelly Merritt ★★★★★ My sister and I had our father cremated because that was the preference he expressed before he passed away. We looked at the websites of several places that offer cremation services, and called a few to ask questions. We were skeptical because Heritage offered so much more for so much less than some other places, and because there is another company also named Heritage that has horrible reviews. Because ultimately we felt the services that Heritage offered were what we needed we chose them. We were given the option of having our consultation at the office or in our home. All of the process was explained to us, the paperwork was easy and Heritage fulfilled just what they said they would in a timely and respectful manner. We were very happy with them and would recommend them to anyone.js_loader
