The staff was very helpful. I spoke with Arlene, she was amazing taking time to explain the different options and pricing. She was friendly, professional and so very helpful. Grateful for her help. read more

I went to apply for a groundskeeper job with the supervisor that runs the groundskeeper crew at the clovis cemetery on herndon and minnewawa . The first time I went to talk to him about a job, he was very short on the conversation and rude. He told me I had to go apply at the temp service LABORMAXX on villa and shaw . I went and applied and told them I was sent here from clovis Cemetery to get hired . I went back to the clovis cemetery two weeks after to check on the hiring status . I told him I went to fill out my application at Labormaxx like you told me, and he said ok in March. There will be opening if you are looking for a stable job. I told him yes and thank you. I went back in March, and he told me they weren't hiring . But I saw a new young , very young Mexican they hired . Him and Rebecca at labormaxx lied about hiring anyone. He only hires Mexicans and discriminates against Chicanos or any other races. Unprofessional and I feel against the law to discriminate. I dont see any other race being given a chance or opportunity for a position. Why give someone the runaround and make them apply if they are not going to be given a chance read more

We lost my father in law during the shut down. So when everthing reopened we purchased his headstone. and now we have been waiting months to have it set. and as of today we still can not get a update. they can not even tell me if it will be this week, month, or year. They say the do not have the room to have the bases but the place that we purchased the headstone from still has the base. and that Clovis only has been taking 1 base a month I asked Clovis how many stones the place a day and were we are on the list and they did not know. So if you could help it dont go here it is a nightmare to deal with this people.] read more

Absolutely terrible people running this place. Zero compassion for grieving families and never answers the phone. The women in the office are the worst! Basically called me a liar to my face. Sadly it's the only cemetery in Clovis... I would rather be buried in a ditch then give this place any business. Most people seeking help here are going through the worst time of their life the least the staff can do is show a little compassion. read more

To be fair, it's a bit hard to rate a cemetery because nobody wants to have to go to a cemetery to conduct business if a close family member is one of their "customers. However, both my father & I had the worst experience with "Angela" or whomever is the person who does the "scheduling" is called. It was hard to get her name because she was coughing into the phone. Anyways, Angela" calls me the day after I just watched my loved one pass away. I am still in shock & here's this abrasive woman on the phone, coughing repeatedly & loudly into the phone, telling me I need to pay them, "$1,000-something" for the grave & says, "Tomorrow at 11?". I can barely understand what she's saying because she keeps coughing & she's demanding money & not showing any empathy or concern. I am the paying customer. I just lost a loved one less than 24-hours before. What's wrong with a polite, "I am so sorry about your loss. I'd like to arrange a time for you to meet with so-and-so to pay for the grave"? A little respect & empathy goes a long way. But it doesn't stop there, this same person then begins calling my father to schedule the payment appointment. My father, being a no-nonsense person, finds her abrasive as well. Then we go into pay for the grave & a different person, while polite & friendly, immediately tries to sell us a deal on the grave that costs more than what we're expecting. I know you deal with death everyday but have a little more concern for empathy & a little less emphasis on profit from grieving families. The cemetery itself is kept well enough but it definitely feels like it's stuck in the 1970's, the office is a dingy cement building, the asphalt roads are bumpy with large trees growing under them, & there are a ton of mosquito abatement signs requesting no flower pots & saying that you're flower pot will be filled in with sand. That's fine because mosquitos bring disease but this would not be the place I would want my family members to place me in for forever. read more

My grandparents are here, and literally every time i've visited, the grass is green and mowed, the grounds and clean, and the trashcans have been emptied. A very peaceful and clean cemetery. Yes, they have rules about when flags/balloons can be placed on graves, but it's to keep the grounds clean, and flags from becoming tattered or overly worn. Always flowers as far as the eye can see, so pretty! read more

We have been waiting for 5 weeks so far to schedule our family members burial. Not only do they not return our calls but also the funeral home or monument company. We understand if they had to close for two weeks because of Covid, but there's no excuse for not returning calls. Uncaring and unacceptable. I will post further updates. read more

Don't place your loved ones here if you want a beautiful peaceful place.!! Don't ever expect the office to be helpful STACEY! Very condescending. You will never get a call back if you leave a message. They only enforce rules when they feel like it. Everyone's headstone is NOT treated equally! I have had items and flowers stolen from my loved ones headstone. I did not break any rules, and there is no recourse!!! Very upsetting to say the least. You pay a ton of money, you and your loved one deserve some respect. Very DISGUSTING TO DEAL WITH SUCH UNPROFESSIONALISM. Sick to My stomach to have to deal with this place for the rest of my life. You have been warned! When will the board deal with their hired help??????? read more

The manger is rude with no heart and little regard to people whom have just lost someone. You would think with dealing with people daily, that have just lost their loved ones they would have more ability and patience to be able to help those of us who have lost someone. Oh, don't get me wrong they are so nice to you when you first go in there, as soon as they have that money in there hands they don't care about you or your loved one after that. It's not like a can pick my loved one up and move them to another location. read more

Wonderful well maintained cemetery that honor our fallen service members on Wreaths Across America

Everyone on staff, from the Manager to the great Maintenance guys, went out of their way to help our family. They GET it, and care.

Disappointed that the Clovis Cemetery District has chosen to remove all the American Flags from the gravesites. I visit the 4 fallen Buchanan soldiers on a regular basis and the missing flags is dishearting and disrespectful!!! ' American flags need to be allowed!!! read more

This cemetery will NOT allow American Flags to be put on headstones!! WHAT?!?! That is a disgrace to those who have served to make sure we could fly this flag!!! Please everyone tell the Board of Trustees this is completely unacceptable! The address is below. Feel free to call them or write them!! This needs to be corrected. ALSO: Oh, and apparently, the cemetery is not consistent on this rule. They do let flags (YES FLAGS) and solar lights and even photos stay up around a cluster of other young men who were KIA but not EVERYONE is treated the same since those items stay up for months (and years) and the flags on Brian's grave are taken down within a few days. This is not fair and we should not stand for it!! June 5, 2017 Board of Trustees Clovis Cemetery District 305 N. Villa Avenue Clovis, CA 93612 Dear Trustees, We are writing as a group that does NOT support your 'No Flag' policy at your Clovis Cemetery District. We would like to see this policy overturned to allow American flags to be displayed on gravesites of our loved ones. It is a bit hard to believe that a city, that has had its share of loss of young lives in our military, would actually consider not allowing a grieving family to have a small flag or two at the gravesite of their loving son and a fallen soldier that lost his or her life defending the freedom that the America flag stands for. I am not sure of the reason behind your 'ban' of the American flag in the cemetery but feel you should consider allowing them. If the reason is that you don't like to have a cluttered look, then you should also consider no flowers and making every headstone the same. Death is cluttered and every time we come to visit our nephew, son, brother, uncle, cousin we are reminded that life is cluttered. If the reason is that you don't want them to blow away and be strewn all over the cemetery then that can be remedied. There really is no legitimate reason that, in a cemetery where people place items that remind them of their loved ones (e.g.: flowers), that an American flag shouldn't be able to be placed as a reminder of our loved ones. We respectfully request that you change this policy to honor those who have honored us with their lives. This is the right and the American thing to do!! read more

My husband and son are buried at Clovis Cemetery. I went on 6/24/17 to check on the graves since being there 2 months earlier and could not believe my eyes. The cemetery looks like no one has watered or done any yard work for 2 months. The office person said they have 5 cemeteries and no dedicated yard staff for any of them. The weeds are 2 feet tall around the graves and grass is dead. She said they have had a lot of services to deal with. REALLY! It looks abandoned at this point. I cannot believe I am the only one upset about the appearance of this cemetery. I asked if there was a new owner and she replied no. Please keep the cemeteries landscaping under control it looks VERY BAD! read more

We recently had my mothers ashes buried at the Clovis Cemetery. They provided a service that was far beyond my expectation. My brothers and sisters traveled from 3 different states and 4 different cities to be here for her burial. I was told that here grave marker would be on site but it would not be set until after we left. My brothers and sisters would not have the opportunity to see her grave completed while they were here which meant they probably never would. Instead, the cemetery staff provided much more than expected. They took great care with her ashes, I was allowed to placed her ashes in a very nice vault, we place a pink rose from her bouquet with her at their suggestion . The vault was then sealed and placed very gently in the ground while we watched. They then brought up a load of dirt, allowed each of us (23) enter a handful of dirt into her grave as a farewell. They then finished filling her grave placed her marker and filled in the sod around it. We all left there with a wonderful sense of peace knowing she is in a wonderful place. Thank you to all of those at the cemetery who showed such kindness and care for our family We are very grateful.. read more
