Sorry for your loss: I lost my mother a week ago, and this business really lifted so much off my…read moreshoulders. I can't recommend them enough. My mom had been sick for years and was very isolated as she neared the end. She didn't want a big service or event. I had a friend who lost their son and used the company- cremation options. After a little research I found that all of the mortuaries and funeral homes in the Knoxville area use the same cremation facility. Ask for the price of the service in writing flat - no up charge - this company did. They were so compassionate and cut and dry; without any extra frills or add-ons (things like cosmetology or dressing or transportation) ... the experience we had with this family run company was... I hate to say but it was calming and uplifting. It was such a relief to know that my mother was is going to be taken care of with dignity and respect. The friends that recommended them were able to attend their son's cremation and put hand prints on the enclosure before he entered the cremation chamber (sorry to be frank). My grandmother, her grandmother and uncles were charged from $7,000 to $16,000 for a modest, simple service. Cremation Options gave us plenty of choices for urns or keepsake things but my mom wanted a simple but specific look. We were able to bring in our own boxes and keepsake 'holders' and for no charge. They happily transferred her ashes (and labeled) the vessels we brought in to them for all members of our family that wanted them. So here is the truth, bottom line. We had our mother cremated and brought home for $1,689.00. It would have been $1550.00 but we needed 10 notarized death certificates at $15 a piece with extra non- official copies. That is a fraction of the cost we were quoted from other companies. Please do your research and make the right choice for your family. Sorry for your loss.

My husband and I are in the planning stages for our final arrangements. We made an appointment and…read morewent in and spoke with Bobbie at length today. We were quite impressed with the ease of discussion and how she answered questions that we didn't even know we had! She had a list of the services and the pricing readily available. There was absolutely no pressure to commit to anything today--which gives us more time to discuss the options with our families. You just never know what life will throw at you and we do not want to be making end of life care on one of the worst days of our life. We have a dog we would like to view our body after we pass and she had a solution for that. (we are in Knoxville, not St Cloud)

This one was tough to find. It is located in a spot in between two housing developments and to…read moreaccess the cemetery, I had to park on the street. I was probably trespassing as I walked the line between two homes to get to the cemetery fence. Inside the cemetery I visited the settlers memorial stone. Tennessee's Cavett Blockhouse predated Texas' Alamo. On September 25, 1793, 1,000 Creek and Cherokee warriors were prepared to annihilate Knoxville. Only the 14 residents of the Blockhouse - men, women, and kids - were in their path. Somehow, the settlers put up such a battle that the Native Americans were demoralized and never attempted to attack the settlement. The only memorial for the settlers is the stone on their mass grave because all of the Blockhouse defenders were slain there yet, unlike the Alamo, the Blockhouse wasn't preserved. The stone reads, "Upon this spot stood the house of Alexander Cavett who was murdered together with two men and the Cavett family of twelve, September 25th, 1793, after heroic resistance against a combined Creek and Cherokee force numbering one thousand warriors, thereby insuring failure of the intended attack upon the town of Knoxville." It was erected in 1921 by the Tennessee Society Sons of the Revolution. [Review 18855 overall - 378 in Tennessee - 2378 of 2022.]
