    My precious mama, 3 days have passed without you here and I miss you so very much. Thank you for adopting me when I was a child and giving me the life I have been blessed with and the 2 most wonderful loving brothers anyone could ask for. Thank you for your patience, understanding, guidance, support and unconconditional love. You have taught me so much. I miss you, your recipe sharing, your wonderful cooking, the laughs and talks we shared, vacations we have taken, all your advice and for helping me to see things in a different light when I was down or angry. Thank you for sharing your family history with me and telling me it was as much my history as it was John and Patricks. I will miss the shows on tv you recorded and saved to watch with me. I love you and will miss you all the days of my life and look forward to being with you again, one day. God please take special care of one your most precious angels and award her generously for all the sacrifices she made for her children and for taking us to church every Sunday and Wednesday so that we may know you and accept you as our lord and saviour.

    Nothing compares to a mother’s love, and few things in life are as painful as her passing. Mary’s grace is reflected in the lives of her loved ones–to know them is to know her. May the hope of the resurrection fill the void that she has left.

    Thank you my sweet Mary for being you. We have been friends and sisters in our hearts since before your children were born. We went through a lot of trials and tribulations together over the years. The distance we shared never effected our love and help for one another..I lost my sister Joan a few years back and now losing you is like losing another sister..LAURIE,JOHN AND PATRICK, I share your pain.. I lost my Mother 2 years ago. She was 94.I still hurt and miss her terribly. Children, I will keep you in my heart along with your Precious Mother. Laurie, I was with your parents when they brought you home. You were loved and adored from the moment they found out they could have you. All of you remember how much she loved. We shared a lot over the years about our children and she always had good things to say about each of you and how much she loved you. You were her life.

"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!!"
