    They arranged the flowers left behind

    Our family had a funeral service here this month (March). Can not speak any higher of the groundskeepers and Antonio who works in the office. First of all, I've visited the cemetery 4 different times so far, and I've seen people keep up with the maintenance. I'm not sure if I'm going at the right time or something, because several reviews have reported that it isn't kept up with. Second, the staff have been amazing with us. They accommodated us even when they didn't have to. They made things work with the funeral home when there was a miscommunication on the part of the funeral home. Antonio kept me updated by calling to clear up matters. Antonio has a way of explaining the process very detailed and precisely during difficult times for our family. A few of us went to visit the grave a few days later only to be pleasantly surprised of how well the groundkeepers took such good care of my love ones' flowers. The flowers were watered, and nicely placed over the grave.

    After living around the corner from this cemetery for 27 years (almost all of my life, in other words) and being determined to try something new every day this year, I finally stopped by on Saturday. Frankly, it's been so easy to forget this cemetery is there as it's rather well concealed, but for the iron gates that allow passers-by to see several of the upright gravemarkers from 183rd. Indeed there are many older graves here than I thought. More than a handful, tragically, are for children and babies. It was fascinating to walk about the grounds, and see names like Clark and Wardlow, more famously known as streets these days. The older graves are closer to the front while those near the rear are fresher, with tombstones inlaid into the ground. Some of the older ones, particularly those from the 1930s, were poured concrete with the letters and numbers stamped in or scrawled with a toothpick or some other implement. The road into the cemetery is one-way, and you park on the left. Though there were signs for a restroom, the door was locked to get in. But for a few of the older gravemarkers along the western wall needing to be unearthed, the rest of the grounds seem reasonably well-maintained and windchimes hang in various places.

Thanks to them we were able to obtain a Catholic mass & funeral services in our back yard. Our concern was also to get our mom's cremation/Urn within a two week time frame. Chavez Funeral &Cremation delivered reliability, assertiveness & expedited our request. A reputable foundation nonetheless. Under the circumstances where the last thing you need is more task to tackle, Chavez Funeral& cremations took a huge weight of our hands. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Especially to Sonia. Excellent, well done. Cons: Some reviews say that This organization doesn't get back in time. I totally can understand the frustration(under the circumstances) however a simple call and text to, friendly remind Sonia or her staff will solve that miscommunication. Any organization can get backed up or busy but I can assure you it's an easy fix. Atleast it worked for me. Best.

White's Funeral Home was very efficient, great at explaining the process, and amazing with providing necessary updates. We opted to do a direct cremation and there was never a lack of communication between the funeral home and myself. Jennifer Carrillo was always available to answer my calls or any questions that came up during the process. Although the pandemic did place a delay on picking up my mother's remains, Jennifer always remained in touch with me and sincerely apologized for the delay. My family used White's when my father passed away in 2002 and I'm glad that I chose them again to plan my mother's cremation as well. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family in the future.

The owner personally took the time to walk me through the process of what cremation and funeral services would look like. I was so afraid of how my mother would look, the makeup done for her made her look like snow white resting. She was so at peace and it gave me tremendous closure and comfort to see her looking so beautiful after looking so sick at the hospital. Every detail of her services, we're touched with pieces of the ocean. I had mentioned to the owner how my mother loved the sea, when we walked in to her services it was a beautiful seascape, I was so blown away at the details, there were little sand bottles with her name, handprinted on them. These keepsakes are still in my living room, and I treasure them. I didn't have to do anything they helped withb all the details down to organizing our food in a buffett style. They provided an easel and huge picture of her, so when you walked in, you saw her beautiful face smiling. All I had to do was send in my photos, and they were printed and framed all throughout reception. They allowed us to put a playlist of her favorite music together and played it throughout the venue. There were tv's playing her picture video memorial. The memorial cards they printed on a nice quality photo paper, and I was able to choose several pictures to go on the back which helped me include all of my family I'm so thankful God led me to this venue. They were so flexible with payment as well and allowed me organize donations before final payment. Thank you so much Christal and team. Me and my family are forever greatful for your hospitality. Christal the owner here in particular was so warm and welcoming, and I will never forget her hugs at such a hard time in my life. ​Thank you Thank you

We were asking simple questions regarding assistance for my mother-in-law's funeral and she acted like we were bothering her. She couldn't provide us any information, couldn't get us help from anyone else, and kept dumping us on hold for no reason. This was ridiculous and completely unacceptable, especially while we're grieving and trying to get basic support. The lack of empathy, professionalism, and basic customer service was shocking. No family going through something this difficult should have to deal with that kind of treatment. I would not recommend dealing with this place at all.
