If you want environmentally conscious death care and/or a home funeral, Melissa is awesome. I had been following her on social media for... some time, and when my husband was in his last days on home hospice, I contacted Melissa and asked if she would be willing to take me on as a client. She responded very quickly, within a few hours, and gave me her cellphone number so I could message her when my husband died, anytime day or night. I had already done a lot of research on home funerals, natural burial, etc. so I was fairly clear on the basics of caring for my husband's body and natural burial sites in the Austin area, so Melissa didn't spend a lot of time on educating me about options, but I imagine she would go over options in more detail with anyone who wanted/needed that information. Melissa was super helpful in clarifying the legalities, taking care of paperwork and filing for death certificates, delivering extra cold packs (to cool the body) and the cardboard casket in time for the home wake so family/friends could write messages and decorate it. She kept in touch frequently through text messaging (less intrusive than voice calls) to send me updates, and to check to see if I needed anything. After the home wake, she arranged for transportation of the body (and casket) from home to her facility for refrigerated storage until the burial. Melissa helped facilitate the initial connection between me and the then-brand-new owner of Eloise Woods Natural Burial Park, and also worked behind the scenes with the new owner to coordinate delivery of the body to the burial site, and decorated the site with palm fronds. She stayed for the entire burial service (discreetly in the background) to make sure everything went smoothly. All in all, I'm so glad Melissa was available. She's friendly and down to earth, professional without being stuffy or formal, super conscientious, and knows her stuff. We wanted a home wake and green burial, and I'm so glad her services were available to help facilitate that. I didn't have to worry about legalities, transportation, etc., and could focus on taking care of my husband and my family.read more

Melissa was so compassionate and caring when I lost my soul pup Moose. She dealt with a very abrasive vet tech for me, she took care of... transporting him from the vet to be aquamated, and then she brought him to me when he was ready to come back home.I will only use Melissa for these services in the future, I needed someone with a giant heart and take charge attitude to get through that devasting time, and Melissa was just that person.read more

I contacted Green Cremation Texas when my mother was first diagnosed. I knew I did not want any pressure to have her embalmed prior to... cremation. I was referred through another business associate. Right away I was pleased with the information on the website. A place with a dog always works for me. There was never any pressure at all. No surprise or redirection that I was interested in assisting with shrouding my mother. It was comforting and relaxing because I was not stressed about what was going to happen next. We were kept informed through the entire process. Thank youread more

My husband died unexpectedly and I had no idea how complicated it was to find a good honest place that would take care of him after his... passing. After calling around and being told that I would have to make appointments in order to get any information, I came across Affinity/Green Cremation. I called the number and Melissa immediately answered. She took the time to explain everything, was up front about cost and options, handled me with care and compassion while being honest and forthcoming. She even went so far as to help me with some keepsake jewelry and a glass rose I wanted made. I was never in the dark about what was happening, all the documents were done electronically so it didn't delay the process and I could even complete everything at my pace without it feeling like a transaction. I can't say enough amazing things about Melissa and Green Cremation and hope I never need their services again, but if I do, they have a loyal customer for life.read more

I have been aware of Melissa's breadth of knowledge and influence on the world of natural burial, but this is the first time I have worked... with her. We worked seamlessly together to transport a loved one half way across the country, and she participated in all steps of the process with a loving heart, a generosity of spirit, and steady demeanor. Melissa demonstrated to me that funeral professionals can work well together and handle all needs of the family they have the privilege to serve.read more

On May 19th, I had gotten a call from my sister in law telling me to fly immediately to Orlando (I am away for work). Halifax Health... Hospice had let her know that my father was going to be passing soon and it was imperative that I fly in immediately - she wanted to contact me before hospice called me. We flew out that sameday to see my dad. My father passed away on Thursday May 23rd at 11:59 pm.I have known about Melissa Unfred and her advocacy for a while. I wanted Melissa Unfred to be handling my father's post mortem care because she is translucent about her services, she is professional, and she went above and beyond to ensure that my father had the best possible treatment - that he had a dignified death.My father was located in Deltona, Florida and she is in Austin, Texas - but that was of no concern to Melissa; she helped me even though she was out of state (I was located in Florida) and in a different time zone - she worked with my family and I on 24 hour call - all hours of the morning (especially since my father passed away so late in the evening). She never upsold me on services that weren't needed and was very upfront about the costs. A lot of traditional funeral homes seem to take advantage of grief (trust me we did our research on pricing) during this time, Melissa did not. She treated my family and myself with dignity during this difficult time.My family and I chose to have my father water cremated and I am eternally grateful that Melissa provides this service and orchestrated everything with timing and precision. Her professionalism and courtesy are exemplary - I cannot express how she went above and beyond to ensure that communication was clear and precise. It is remarkable in this day and age that this service exists.read more
