Aquaterra Water Cremation

When my mom passed away, Dave Valencia and the team at AquaTerra gave us the most compassionate and seamless experience we could have hoped for. I first met Dave when he helped my mom create her trust—his kindness, knowledge, and care stood out even then. When the time came, he and his team were there for us immediately, coming straight to the house and handling everything with quiet grace. Naomi, who coordinated everything with my sister and me, was absolutely wonderful—so kind, thoughtful, and attentive. She guided us through each step with clarity and compassion, making an incredibly hard time a little easier to bear. AquaTerra’s approach to water cremation felt like the most natural and respectful way to say goodbye. It’s a gentle process, inspired by nature, and they made it even more meaningful by playing a playlist of my mom’s favorite songs during the cremation. Every detail was handled with love and care. As a family-owned business in Redding, CA, they treated us like family too. The process was timely (which meant a lot as we were from out of town), completely transparent, and fairly priced. The urn they provided was beautiful, a fitting tribute to our mom. We’re so grateful for AquaTerra, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a peaceful, respectful, and caring way to honor a loved one.

Everyone at Aquaterra was sincerely kind, helpful, and considerate of our loss. They made the process very easy for me and my sisters when we lost our mom, and they were very understanding of our circumstances. They took great care, and Naomi is a delight to speak with and wrote such a wonderful obituary. I would absolutely recommend Aquaterra to those who need funeral services.

Aquaterra is a remarkable addition to our community. From the moment you enter, the environment feels warm, peaceful, and healing. It’s clear that every detail has been carefully considered to create a space that honors both beauty and dignity. What sets Aquaterra apart is the people behind it. As a family-run business, the owners bring a combination of professionalism, knowledge, and heartfelt compassion. They take the time to walk families through each step with clarity and care, making a difficult experience feel a little more manageable, and even meaningful. I highly recommend Aquaterra to anyone seeking a personal and peaceful farewell for a loved one.

Aquaterra’s water cremation service was a gentle and respectful option during a very emotional time for our family. We appreciated their environmentally conscious approach and the care they took to explain every step with compassion and transparency. The staff made us feel supported and never pressured. It was comforting to know our loved one was treated with such dignity and kindness throughout the process. The facility itself felt serene, and the overall experience brought us a sense of peace. I would wholeheartedly recommend Aquaterra to anyone looking for an eco-friendly and compassionate alternative.

Absolutely inspired by what the Valencia family is creating at Aquaterra. The space is beautifully designed, the technology is both cutting-edge and environmentally conscious, and every encounter I’ve had with the team has been marked by genuine care and professionalism. This is the kind of business that truly showcases the compassion this community needs.
