John Scanlin was amazing to work with. He was very responsive & informative. I needed a simple cremation & the prices vary widely. Scanlin Cremation offered reasonable pricing & took care of everything, including Death Certificates and delivery of the remains. Very satisfied & highly recommend.

Our family lives out of state and John made it very easy to communicate and coordinate from afar. Everything was ready when we arrived and it went smoothly. I'm glad the folks at UWMC gave me their contact info as it was easy to work with Scanlin.

I have a very unique story and I am so thankful with the way they handled my mother with care. The owner was just over the top. My mother went viral after you did this for me which was very much needed. Thank you.

During a time of grief and not being from the area, after speaking with several other creamation directors, Scanlin Cremation treated me and my loved one in a caring manor. I wasn't just another customer. My requests for my loved one were treated respectfully, in a timely way, and every step of the way, John Scanlin was in contact until I had my loved one's ashes in my possession. Grateful for such an effortless transition during the most difficult of times.

From the moment I called Scanlin Cremation and Burial we were helped and guided through one of the most difficult times in our lives. Our son passed away while in Seattle and we live in Texas. Not knowing anything about or anyone in Seattle the Scanlin company took great care of us and our son. They are knowledgeable professional and put us at ease from the beginning to the end of this heartfelt and sad ordeal. For us, the entire process was methodical and easily followed and understood. We would definitely recommend John Scanlin and team to anyone in a similar situation.
