We were treated professionally by a personable agent. Patience was shown; enthusiasm for your services was shared and all our questions were answered. One thing you might add to the sales experience is to provide your new client with a sample of a successor trustee notification letter.

We thought that talking about cremation would be grim, but we were delighted with the information that Renee provided us and with the services that Trident provides. It's good to know now that our wishes will be followed, and It won't be a burden to our family. We can check this off our list and enjoy our retirement.

    When I spoke with Brenda on the phone, she was very nice. She explained the service to me and answered all my questions with clarity. She made sure that I understood all the terms of the contract and was very patient. I would recommend this service to any friends or family who desire cremation as their final wish.

    It has taken me years to arrive at this decision. I think cremation only makes godly and logical sense. The person at Trident Society helped guide my wife and I to our decision was very knowledgeable and compassionate.

    The Trident agent was knowledgeable and answered every question we asked. The agent was easy to reach. He took as much time as needed to fully explain the program. He made the whole process easy to complete. The benefits of the program give us and our children peace of mind. All materials were delivered as described in a timely manner.

    Losing my mother was difficult for sure however Ed from the Walnut Creek branch of the Trident Society made that difficult time easier on myself and family. Ed’s caring, compassion, & overall soothing manner was just what we needed, he is truly an asset to your company. I would recommend him & this branch to all. Thank you again, Ed.

    The rep came to my house. She handled everything. She explained everything. She was very nice. She made me feel at ease. I had been putting this off for a long time. I was glad to get it over. When she left I had all the information that I need to pass on to my children.

    It was fine. Stephen ** was very helpful. In short order we were able to make pre-need arrangements for Curtiss ** for whom I have Power of Attorney. Curt knows what's been set up and is agreeable to it. That's all I have to say for now!

    The death of a loved one took only 2 days of a lot of chaos and unfamiliar experience. My wife and I had chosen to cremate some months before but had not signed an agreement. So I spoke with Diane who took the ball and ran with it. She took care of everything needed to be done. Explained what I needed to do and the sequence of events. Well Done from all those that served my wife well.

    I am very pleased with the service I received. It was very easy getting my contract together. Renee was very good and explained everything thoroughly. I am also pleased with my urn and the memory box and everything that's with it. So I say thank you.
