“Just a note to let you know that one of your life members, Roger Lawrence Williams, Laramie, died on July 4. Upon his death, I inquired in my capacity as Roger’s personal representative with the local funeral home as to its fees for immediate cremation and was quoted “about $2,800.” I then called Bohlender’s in Ft. Collins and was quoted the exact fee listed in your most recent newsletter: $995. Both Bohlenders were extraordinarily friendly, helpful, and just plain decent. They charged an extra $70 for transporting the body to Ft. Collins; can’t imagine what the local operator would have charged. I wish more people knew about the Funeral Consumer Society, though I’m pretty sure that an acquaintance here in Laramie will join the Society, or at least pre-pay a funeral with Bohlender’s. ”

“I would just like to tell you how pleased I am with Jim Stork’s handling of my wife’s funeral arrangements. He was very caring, helpful, reasonable on prices, and just a good guy to deal with. I’m glad I am a member of the Funeral Consumer Society which enabled me to save thousands of dollars in funeral expenses compared to other funeral homes. It’s interesting to note that most other funeral home operators never heard about the Funeral Consumer Society when I mentioned it. Thank you you for providing an excellent service to the citizens of Colorado. I’ve reached out to USAA Insurance and Porter Hospice to make them aware of your organization.”
