After months of avoiding making calls regarding cremation for one of my twins that will be…read morestillborn at delivery, I reached out to Angels Cremation. I had the delight of speaking with Elver. Elver and I discussed my current situation. Before even continuing the conversation, Elver was extremely empathetic and compassionate which is truly a blessing as a loss parent with disenfranchised grief. He asked a few preliminary questions regarding when my Baby A had passed in utero, where I was delivering at, etc. Before I could elaborate on what I wanted, Elver explained the cost was basically the fees for the county permit and a death certificate should I choose to want one. Additionally, he gave me a brief run down as to the process which basically entails letting the hospital know who would be handling the cremation and when we would like them to pick him up and they would handle the rest. I have a friend handling all this for me upon delivery and I was able to easily relay this information to her. I am so glad Angel's is the first place I reached out to and I feel so at ease after speaking with Elver.

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel obligated to share my experience so others are aware…read more I was contacted on Tuesday and told my father's remains would be ready for pickup at the Sanger office on Wednesday between 11am-2pm. I arranged transportation and made the nearly hour-long drive, only to be told upon arrival that my father was not there and that I was not even on the schedule. The staff member present was kind and apologetic, and after attempting multiple calls to the main office with no answer, I was assured my father's remains would be delivered to my home the following day. It has now been over 24 hours since that promise, and I have received no communication, no update, and no explanation as to where my father is. Losing a parent is already incredibly difficult. Not knowing where their remains are--and being met with silence from the very people entrusted with their care--is deeply distressing and unacceptable. I am sharing this not out of anger, but out of concern for others who may trust this service during one of the most vulnerable times in their lives. At minimum, families deserve clear communication, accountability, and basic follow-through. I sincerely hope this situation is resolved quickly and that no other family has to experience this level of uncertainty.

She assisted me with information due to the difficulty of the county my father passed away. After some other calls I decided to use Valley of Peace. The process was done very professionally. My father's viewing was in the Santa Clarita location. Although it is not your typical chapel or funeral home, don't let the location fool you, inside was beautiful and the atmosphere felt very intimate. I had over 35 people there and it wasn't crowded. There were comfortable chairs and they also provided coffee. My father looked great and overall the experience was fantastic. I highly recommend Valley of the Peace.

On December 22nd my grandfather unfortunately passed away. I mistakenly made arrangements with another funeral home in Fresno. The other funeral home was unresponsive and never picked up my grandfather's deceased body or contacted me as to why. At 7pm on Saturday I contacted Abbey Funeral & Cremation Services. I spoke with a representative who was extremely helpful and assured me that my grandfather would be picked up within 30 - 45 minutes. I informed the representative whom I had spoken with the day before (Barbara). As soon as Abbey Funeral & Cremation Services spoke with the hospice nurse and confirmed all arrangements I received a call from Barbara. I am beyond thankful for Abbey Funeral & Cremation Service in Fresno as Barbara has been extremely helpful with this entire process. She is amazingly helpful and truly appreciate her kindness and responsiveness during the holidays. My grandfather made it home to Morelia Michoacán Mexico. My family and I truly thank you for all your assistance through this process.

I worked closely with Christina, who guided me through the funeral planning process with grace and empathy. She listened patiently to all my questions, comments, and concerns, and made sure I understood each detail before making any decisions. I appreciated how she respected my privacy and never made me feel rushed or pressured. Every change I requested was communicated clearly, and I felt truly supported throughout the entire process. I was especially grateful for the private time I was given with my father in the days leading up to the service something I will never forget. On the day of the funeral, everything went exactly as planned. Frank was incredibly kind and personable, helping ensure the service flowed smoothly and on schedule. His presence and professionalism brought a sense of calm to what was otherwise a very emotional day. Following the service, we moved directly across the parking lot to the reception venue, where I worked with Jessica as our event coordinator. Jessica was outstanding she helped plan every detail of our potluck reception, offered thoughtful suggestions, and made sure the space was beautifully arranged. Her professionalism and warmth were evident from our planning meeting through the day of the event. I was very pleased with the overall package we selected and the quality of service provided by both the funeral chapel and the event venue. During a time of deep sorrow, Salser & Dillard gave me peace of mind and allowed my family to focus on honoring and remembering my father. I am truly thankful for the care and support I received from the entire team.
