From the very beginning, their team was patient, compassionate, and never made us feel rushed or pressured. After a previous experience with another funeral home where everything felt urgent, this was completely different. The atmosphere here was serene, welcoming, and allowed us the space to breathe, ask questions, and make decisions with care. We genuinely felt supported every step of the way. Because of this experience, I now feel inspired to plan my own arrangements ahead of time so my family can focus on grieving and being together, rather than navigating logistics during such a painful time. I am deeply grateful for the care they provided. 10/10, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of compassionate and professional funeral services.

I would have highly recommend ed and given them 5 stars even then. But now, I'd give them 10 stars if I could. They were amazing as I navigated through last minute, challenging complications with my mom's remains leading up to her burial.... and they didn't even handle her or cremate her when she passed (an East Bay mortuary did). They truly went above and beyond even coming to pick up my moms remains at my home and finding a way to ensure it would arrive safely close to her burial site since I could not take her on a plane with her urn. They were kind, compassionate, professional, thorough, and go above and beyond at a time when it's really needed. Thank you Eugene, in particular!

We are currently navigating the devastating loss of my close relative, who passed away while under the 'care' of her 'husband.' Despite the fact that the biological family--not the 'husband'--has fully funded the burial and the headstone, the administration is stubbornly siding with his demand to include his name on the monument. Without a head stone it has been very difficult for mourning family to even identify where she is buried. They have refused all attempts at compromise. The cemetery personnel have remained completely intransigent, ignoring the family's wishes and the specific circumstances of this tragedy. Rather than being a place of peace and healing, their rigid adherence to "standard protocol" over common sense and financial responsibility has added unnecessary trauma to an already heartbreaking situation. If you are looking for a facility that values the input of the grieving family members who are actually responsible for the arrangements, look elsewhere.

I was here to visit the final resting place of Robert Ripley, the man who created the famous…read moreOdditorium and the man behind "Ripley's Believe It or Not." And in the process of finding it, there was a lot of searching and walking the cemetery. It is in very good condition, one of the "lawn" style cemeteries rather than "park" style. Laid out in lines with sections and lanes between them, it's an easy walk and in fact a number of folks were here that were clearly not mourners but walkers. I would suggest that if you are walking, do so respectfully and no, dogs are NOT permitted in the cemetery at any time. Ripley was born in Santa Rosa n 1890. He moved to New York in 1913 to work for the New York Globe. Writing a regular feature, it grew from weekly to daily publication and was soon syndicated to a variety of newspapers around North America. At the height of its popularity it was estimated that "Believe It or Not" was being read by daily by 80 million people. On May 27, 1949, Robert Ripley succumbed to a heart attack at the age of 59. He is buried alongside his parents here. Ripley's burial plot is in the LOT section that is sort of between the Santa Rosa Memorial Park and the Santa Rosa Rural Cemetery. The closest address is 1598 Franklin Avenue. [Review 21011 overall - 528 in California - 1996 of 2023.]

No follow-ups and serious lack of accountability and communication resulted in over two years for me to receive a boulder for my mother.

This is a horrible memorial park. Grounds are poorly cared for; grass areas are dead and the…read moreground is horrifically hard and dry from lack of watering. I had to carry 15 pales of water to the markers to try and get the ground soaked well enough for edging - they should edge properly but don't. Even after 15 pales, I couldn't get the ground soaked well enough to dig out the packed dirt in the arrangement holders that was in all likelihood caused by the rodents; ground so hard from lack of moisture water couldn't be absorbed. Ground rodents have taken over the land with holes and mounds of dirt everywhere you step. Grounds keepers run over your arrangements when mowing and don't put them back in their holders leaving rust marks on your loved ones marker(s). It takes me 2+ hours every time I go there to clean four family members markers. Shame on Cypress for having such a lack of respect. If you don't care about your loved ones resting place then this is the place for them because; Cypress Hill doesn't care about them either.
