"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!!"

So sorry for your loss. Love and prayers
Dustin was a great friend. I enjoy all the years I bartender with him. I remember all the times patrons confused him with me. He was great guy and full of vigor and fun. I always laughed when people mistook him for myself. Although I lost touch with him I always laughed seeing his Facebook posts. The world will be a lot more empty without him. I know he was always there to make people laugh as he was always trying and doing things to make people smile. He will be missed and I can’t begin to comprehend why he was taken from us soo early in his life. The lord works in mysterious ways and has a bigger plan then we can even begin to comprehend. You will be missed my friend and I will always remember the good times we had and wish you and your family peace going forth.
I am so sorry for your loss,Richard. Prayers and love be with you and your family .
My heart is heavy for Suzett,Candice, and children…Dustin was a sweet, and gentle guy who always had me LAUGHING… his charm and personality was his character. He loved life and everyone loved Dustin. ISAIAH 41:10
