"Excellent customer service, they made you feel like you were their only customer. Very helpful and explained what we should expect during the process. They basically took care of our needs during this time. They contacted DFW National Cemetery for us which made it a smooth experience. Definitely will use them again."

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"

I extend my heartfelt sympathy to all of Terry’s loved ones. It is such a sad time. I will be praying for all of you. Hugs and love sent to you!
Terry never had nor bad thing to say of anyone. Terry was a kind spirit whose presence always brought joy to the meeting. Truely he is resting in God the Father’s lap telling forever those wonderful jokes and kind things.
To know Terry was to love him from all who knew him.
Prayers for peace and love to Janey, Emily, Sarah and Grant and all.
Marilyn and Charlie
Janey and family so sorry for your loss prayers for comfort and peace.
In the late 60’s and early 70’s we Fulton’s would gather at aunt Shirley’s for stinking Sooners and The mighty Longhorn game. Terry was the coolest dude around to Danny and me. Terry worked at six flags as a magician and stuntman. Terry evidently had connections to the OU / TX game. One year he got a football from the game. Terry gave that ball to Danny and I. We probably threw that ball a million billion times the ends of the ball we’re so scuffed up the bladder was only showing on the tips of the ball. If you thought that was the end it is not! My 3 sons and I aired it up and passed it around for years and I got to tell my boys how great a guy my cousin Terry is. Terry I know where you are and will come see you soon!
Blessed is he…
whose hope is in the Lord his God, the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them – the Lord, who remains faithful forever. Psalm 146:5, 6
As you go through life’s greatest sorrow, the loss of someone you love, may your own faith in God sustain you, bringing you comfort today, courage for tomorrow, and hope in your heart always.
With deepest sympathy and prayers

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints. Psalm 116:15
Steve and I send our love and will pray daily for you Janey, Emily, Sarah, and Grant. Our hearts are broken for all of you. May the Lord of heaven and earth grant you a peace that surpasses all understanding and may you love on each other as you grieve this monumental loss. Terry was a very special man and we know he will be deeply missed.
Terry and I traveled to Detroit with a group of people for a Conference in 2017. We booked a house online for lodging. When we arrived to the house, we learned that it was located in Bad neighborhood. I remember Terry trying to lighten the mood by telling us jokes for 3 straight days. I am going to miss that guy!
Janey and family, Peggy and I are very saddened about the passing of Terry. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. There were always loads of laughs when he was around. He called me doctor. I called him professor. I am sure he is working on his next deal. Now rest in peace ole friend.
I had the great pleasure of knowing Terry through our business relationship. I always looked forward to speaking with Terry. He routinely kept me smiling with his good sense of humor. Terry was a fine, honorable gentleman, and will truly be missed. I will never forget him. To his family, please accept my deepest condolences.
