“Ngaio, I can’t thank you enough for your deep caring and professional service. From the moment of our first phone call you knew exactly what to say and provided me with so much comfort. I truly appreciate how you encouraged my kids and I to be as involved as felt right for us in my husband’s care - spending time with his body and visiting again when we were ready allowed us to move through this incredibly difficult time at our own pace in a deeply meaningful way. I love the locally made urn and keepsake - the birds etched into the urn provided a profound connection to my husband. It is hard to find the words to properly express my deep gratitude for your thoughtful care of my family at this impossible time. - Leanna”
“Thank-you Ngaio, for your gentle guidance through our difficult time. All the best.”
“Ngaio: Your patience, professionalism, and kindness have made this journey a great deal easier for me. Thank you with all my heart. Here is a little something early for your Christmas tree and my wish for you. Or, something to look at year round and comfort you. Hugs and best of luck with your future. ”
“My name is Christine and I am a Celebrant based in Guelph, Ontario. I follow you folks on social media and really resonate with your approach. I'm also passionate about changing how death and ceremonies around it happens in our culture. I'm writing to say thank you for being so awesome. I'm working with a family to create a memorial for their young son who died last month in Vancouver. They told me that they were treated so well by you folks. They spoke of your compassion, your authenticity, and how supported they felt by you. This was in contrast to another more standard funeral home where they said they felt "sold to" instead of treated as grieving loved ones (they walked out of that place). How you choose to be and what you choose to do matters and has an impact. Thank you for that. All the best, Christine Lafazanos Certified Life-Cycle Celebrant woven-threads.ca christine@woven-threads.ca 519-823-0038 Facebook |Instagram”

“We had a very good experience with Ngaio Davis from Classic Cremation when my father passed away. Ngaio helped us personalize a funeral service and took care of every detail up to the delivery of the ashes following cremation. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and empathy in helping us through the process during a very difficult time was very impressive. Her rates are competitive, and the extra touches she included were much appreciated. I highly recommend Ngaio Davis and Classic Cremation if you are looking for a cremation and funeral service provider.”
“I found Classic Cremation online when searching Google for an urn. As many unfortunately figure out, the process of putting a loved one to rest is extremely emotional and stressful. I found a gorgeous marble urn at Classic Cremation, and they even went and brought in a desired colour for me the next day! Thanks for making this last step, less stressful.”

We would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone in need of something similar and would be only to happy to serve as a reference for either of you. Again, many thanks.
