Your loved one is entitled to receive dignified care, cremation, memorialization and final disposition at an affordable price. You should be treated in a fair, kind and straight forward manner, without putting you deeply into debt.
Our locally owned and operated office and refrigerated care center is located in Santa Clarita Valley and is inspected and licensed by the State of California.
After years of experience as a funeral director, Steven Skiles opened Peaceful Reflections Cremation Care because he wanted to provide a level of comfort and assistance to families who are experiencing the loss of a loved one.
You won't find the high-pressure sales methods and hidden fees used by many corporations and so-called " Societies" in the funeral and cremation industry that make large profits from those who are vulnerable during one of the hardest and emotional days of their lives.
Many "Societies" and "Corporate" owned facilities will offer a Basic Cremation Package that includes services and/or merchandise. Thereby causing families to buy expensive merchandise and/or services that families either don't need or will use.
We don't want people to be confused about what we do and how much we charge. Too many websites are confusing and want you to make multiple decisions so that they can figure out what your final price will be. Many websites don't even list prices so that you'll call them and speak with a counselor (salesman) or answering service who's main objective is to get you in their office.
