Laura Tirado helped us immensely with all our questions and needs and the respect, courtesy and assistance was above excellent. Funeral home is extremely clean and quaint enough for a small and quiet viewing or a large and social one like the one we had for my father. I do recommend the third room if you are expecting a lot of people. By far, great experience and service from the first call with Ana the receptionist to all the details the day of the viewing and on the day of the funeral. Highly recommend without hesitation!

From what I've been told, they handled everything with my grandmother's funeral wonderfully. The rabbi was probably the most awesome guy I've ever met and made us feel really comfortable given the situation. This place is very much in order and very clean. My grandpa was buried there when I was 6 and I never got to go, so It was nice to see it kept up well and to have my grandma right next to him. Given that, I would say this is a really nice place to be laid to rest.

This funeral home and cemetery mausoleum receives my worst review: 0…read more 1. I have been to this funeral home three times in the past five years. There are never any attendants at the door or in the viewing room. A cold welcome and they don't make guests feel welcomed, comforted, or professional, at all. 2. The past three deceased that I viewed were not "casket ready" at all. The makeup was not professional, our loved ones were so deep into the casket, and did not give them justice or respect by this unacceptable and lazy service to prepare our loved ones for internment. 3. We then went to the resting place of internment at Caballero-Rivero Cemetery and Mausoleum off 8th Ave, in Miami FL. What a beautiful cemetery and mausoleum. However, upon going into the inside of the mausoleum, where the deceased was being interned, and it was 110 degrees outside, and in a concrete building, ,on the third floor, there was no air-conditioning! Even the elevator had no air conditioning. Totally unacceptable, unprofessional, and truly disrespectful to all the guests and individual being interned, not to mention dangerous and truly cruel to all the mourners. 4. On the front of the entrance to the cemetery, it reads: "Caballero Rivero Cemetery...a place of "DIGNITY" -Really? This is the most indignant act of dignity. No air-conditioning in the middle of Summer, in Miami. Unprofessional, unloving, and abysmally indignant. Shame on you Caballero-Rivero Funeral Home and Services. You could do a lot better. Get those mausoleums air-conditioned ASAP. Stop ripping off the deceased family, and get some professional make-up artists into your businesses. In closing, leaving the cemetery, the office was in the front of the entrance. I pulled over and went into the office...it was air conditioned. -Indignant. Mr. Patrick T.

Everything went fine up until cremation. My husband and I arrived around 7:45 AM to ID the body. My mother chose a photo urn from the company. I told Tony that morning that I purchased something to hold some ashes also, and I wanted them to put a small amount aside for me. I told him to write it down so it would be done. He said he would tell the person doing the cremation. Today I was told his name is Lazaro. This past Saturday my mother went to pick up the ashes and she was only given the photo urn. My request for ashes for my necklace was not completed. I am deeply saddened by this issue because I thought I was going to have a piece of him to keep with me forever. My dad died in a span of five days. So far the only solution offered was bringing my mom's urn back. They mentioned it wasn't written in the contract. I bought the necklace after I decided to use the company. Also whether I bought the necklace before or after is irrelevant as the cremation had not taken place yet. I even inquired about a necklace purchase from Maspons. Maybe my request was not completed because I didn't buy it from them. Again, I asked Tony to notate it at 7:45 AM. How is the family supposed to move forward by making me come back to the funeral home and dealing with an past hurdle? I am a teacher and finally decided to come back to work because I thought I was past the next difficult thing and could remain composed for my students. Apparently not, because although my father died on October 11th, still is still no peace, not even for him. This is unacceptable.

If you are born, one day you will die. It is a fact of life…read more While many people choose to avoid this subject altogether, you shouldn't. You are running from an inevitable truth. There are many things to consider when dying. Do you want to be buried underground or placed on a wall? Would you prefer to be cremated? Donated to science? Do you want to have burial plots for yourself and your loved ones? Believe me there is much to consider. Assuming you're practical, this place is a reliable option. The office staff is pleasant and completely sympathetic to this difficult subject. I personally spoke to Sergio and Gladys and they were beyond helpful. While I may not have funeral expenses on my current to-do list, I did get a rundown when I went in for other matters. As far as burials go, I have several family members at this cemetery and have never had any issues. The graves are well kept and there is plenty of space. There are also nearby flower shops, so visiting your loved ones and bringing a token of your affection is a breeze. Oh, and a final tidbit - they don't remove bodies. From my conversation with staff, the oldest grave around is from the early 1900s. I know that in comparison to other cemeteries that doesn't seem like much, but Miami is a relatively new city. Visit HistoryMiami to get a better idea. Anyway, point is they truly respect the dead.

It is frustrating that such a basic maintenance matter has been left unaddressed for so long.

His professionalism and caring heart solidified my trust in him.He was always just a phone call away and would always answer my questions in a timely manner. If there was an option for 10 stars for this business, I would give it 10 stars. We are living in very unprecedented times and many business owners are taking advantage people's vulnerability. This is NOT the case for this business. If you have to prepare funeral services for a loved one , do not look elsewhere, you will not regret it. The sense of trust that you feel with him and his staff is exceptional. Thank you Felipe once again for everything.

I have mixed feelings about this business. I'll walk you through my experience. My brother…read moreunfortunately passed out of state and I immediately started the process of making his arrangements. I initially started working with a different funeral home and unfortunately due to how sudden and unexpected the passing of my brother was we were simply unprepared financially for this situation. There were a lot of blurred lines surrounding his death and well when you're in a vulnerable position and you put your trust into a business that's supposed to alleviate your stress when you're already grieving you expect a different level of care and professionalism. I found Graceland through Catholic Charities, and although Felipe was at first very kind and seemed like he genuinely cared there were a lot of things that just didn't sit right with me. For example my brothers body had to be shipped from out of state, that in itself took about two weeks. My brother passed away in May and we did not receive the body until June 27th and the viewing took place on the 28th. We were denied access to viewing the body despite repeated requests, although a funeral director can make the suggestion I believe it's up to the family to make the final determination. We never had the opportunity to identify the body and when I requested pictures, identifying information such as tattoos, or finger prints etc I was denied every single suggestion that I had in order to receive the closure that was needed. There was a constant back and forth with National Mortuary which is the company that ships, the funeral home in the state in which he passed said they preformed the embalming and the then I was told by the shipping company that THEY had preformed the embalming. The office staff seemed to laugh at me every chance they had, in particular Samuel. My brother was cremated on the 29th and unfortunately I couldn't attend the cremation which I truly believe was their end game. Although they were very gracious in understanding our financial situation and did give us a discount I don't believe that entitled them to behave in certain ways. I for one felt extremely disappointed and embarrassed by the whole thing. I repeatedly went to pick up my brothers ashes and they apparently have a policy where you can only pick up from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM despite Felipe being there. When I initially went to pick up his remains the staff told my husband that we still owed money which of course wasn't true we paid cash the moment we signed the contract and so apparently that was an accounting oversight. I have never felt so humiliated, embarrassed, and ashamed. This was terrible what was done to us and I hope it doesn't happen to any other family out there during the most difficult time in their lives. While we appreciate the discount we would've appreciated empathy a lot more. Felipe is extremely professional in his communications and the way he accommodates families but I just felt extremely frustrated and lost throughout the process.
