I just wrote a thorough review about Featheringill Mortuary on Google. Please read it. I highly recommend you choose Featheringill Mortuary if you suffer a loss of a loved one. The representatives are knowledgeable, patient, compassionate and extremely empathetic. They do not pressure you into buying unnecessary items you do not want. In other words, they do not take advantage of your grief. They are more concerned about what you want - what your needs are. They also offer other resources that can help you during and after the services. Please go into their website and read my review. I want to thank Aracely and Kyle for helping my family through a very difficult time. Your kindness, patience and expertise were greatly appreciated. read more

Back in 2019, my pops- who is a paralyzed military veteran decided it was time to take care of his cremation matters. Instead of having the family burdened with additional responsibilities when his time comes- it was great to see him being proactive. And honestly, a huge relief, in my opinion. Back then, and to this present day- he's been living in a facility that takes care of his daily needs. So, when I got his phone call that a representative from Featheringhill Mortuary would make the drive to him and get the paperwork started- pops requested my presence as well. So, I brought this up to my momma- (parents have been divorced for 30 years & actually have a friendship still). And she asked to be present as well, with pops approval. Had a representative not made the visit to his facility- we would have rented a mobility van, which isn't cheap to make such arrangements. The FM representative was patient and forthcoming when it came to explaining services, what to expect when payment is made, and why we would receive paperwork from a life insurance company. Since the arrangements have been accommodated for pops- momma has been interested in getting something very similar to his policy. As the years passed by, I have procrastinated in setting up the appointment for momma. We finally set one up and went to their location. I asked if they could retrieve pop's policy and we can piggyback on his arrangements. The FM rep was patient with momma, who has trouble at times understanding the English language. Her appointment took an hour. We didn't feel rushed at all. We booked our appointment first thing in the morning. Parking lot in the back, with some of the stalls looking very cramped. And off street parking on El Cajon Blvd. I'm most likely going to make my arrangements with FM very soon as well. read more

Featheringill Mortuary - Momma's planning ahead. 2/28/25 - Cremation Services Near Me - San Diego, California

My father passed away in July and we selected Featheringill from a list that our pastor gave us. We found everyone who we dealt with to be sensitive and knowledgeable. I highly recommend. Araceli gave insightful advice and was warm and professional. read more

Very helpful and sensitive to our needs at a most difficult time. We had a service honoring my late husband in the chapel, which worked out well. I appreciate that Featheringill recorded the service, though they charge for the video. The "aftercare" contact is very helpful. read more

I cannot say enough about the care and compassion we received from Featheringill Mortuary during an incredibly difficult time for our family. Paul, the mortuary director, went far above and beyond anything we expected. From the very beginning, he took on the overwhelming task of communicating with multiple concerned family members, easing confusion and helping everyone stay informed. That alone lifted a huge burden from us. What truly stood out was his willingness to meet our family where we were--both emotionally and physically. He personally visited the home of our loved one and gently guided family members through decisions that felt impossible at the time. Even when there was hesitation or uncertainty, Paul remained patient, kind, and deeply understanding. His knowledge and honesty were invaluable. He carefully explained the realities and consequences of delaying arrangements, but always did so with compassion and respect. In many ways, he became more than a mortuary director--he was like a social worker, helping our family come together, find clarity, and ultimately reach a place of peace and resolution. During one of the hardest moments of our lives, Paul brought calm, dignity, and guidance. We are truly grateful for his dedication and humanity, and we highly recommend Featheringill Mortuary to any family in need of support and care. read more

Featheringill Mortuary - El Cajon Blvd, San Diego Today I picked up my dad's ashes, and it struck me how light they were compared to how heavy it once felt trying to help him move when he was alive. That contrast alone says so much about this moment -- and I'm incredibly grateful that Featheringill Mortuary carried so much of the weight for me during one of the hardest times of my life. What makes this experience even more remarkable is that I had only called Featheringill that same afternoon to ask about pricing and availability, along with a few other mortuaries. I didn't realize then that I would need their services that very same day -- and when I did, they made everything happen seamlessly, with genuine care and compassion. From start to finish, Featheringill took care of every single detail with professionalism, kindness, and grace. I had never gone through anything like this before, and they made what felt overwhelming feel calm, organized, and manageable. A special thank you to Paul Fiskratti -- he is truly one of a kind. So personable, kind, and reassuring. He never rushed me, never made me feel like "just another case," and always made sure I understood each step. His warmth made an incredibly painful process feel human. Featheringill handled everything: * Death certificates * Burial permits * Coordination of my dad's burial at Miramar National Cemetery * Clear guidance on what needed to be done next They also included an urn in the cost -- a TSA-approved, non-biodegradable urn -- which was practical, appropriate, and a very fair value. They went above and beyond by providing Featheringill Mortuary's Abide Service: Resource Guide and Additional Support, at no charge, to help point me in the right direction for closing accounts and accessing additional resources. That level of care truly matters. I cannot say enough about Featheringill Mortuary. If you ever find yourself needing these services -- especially unexpectedly or for the first time -- I highly recommend them. They made a heartbreaking experience feel cared for every step of the way. Thank you, Featheringill, for treating my dad -- and me -- with such dignity and compassion. -- Felina read more

Hello, my family chose Featheringill to handle my mon's cremation. Everyone we spoke with or interacted with were pleasant , professional and always available. Every step went smoothly. Even delayed transportation so family members could come say goodbye mom. I highly recommend Featheringill. read more

Extremely responsive and quick service. As someone who has never contacted a mortuary and did not know what to expect, Kori made things very easy and would respond to all of my questions in a timely manner. It definitely made us feel more comfortable during this difficult time and that was more than our family could have asked for. read more

Kori provided a quick and easy process for my Sister's eventual care. The paperwork and costs were reasonable and I'm sure she will have proper after life care. read more

No one wants to go shopping at a mortuary. But most people will have to do so one day, and when you do, you need to consult with Featheringill Mortuary. I lost my amazing wife of 39 years to cancer in October and my daughter and I met with Noah at Featheringill to make arrangements and Noah took each step of this unfamiliar process with us. He was so kind and helpful that we honestly didn't want to see him go after the final services were completed. The mortuary itself is dated, but don't let that fool you because the services they provide are focused on your loved one and that is exactly where you want the focus to be. Thank you, Noah, for helping with one of the most difficult experiences of my life. Our family appreciates you! read more

We used this business for the untimely passing of a family member. We're very patient and thorough. Made it very easy for us. Would highly recommend. read more

My uncle's wife recently passed away on the night of Christmas Day, and the next morning we decided to find a mortuary, but some were closed on Monday since people still have taking holidays break. We were lucky enough to find Featheringill, their service was fast and affordable as my uncle needed the money to pay for his wife funeral, they gave us a lot of options, and within the next hour they come to pick up the body, then we scheduled the following day for the final viewing, as of tomorrow Wednesday they will have her body cremated and contact us when the death certificate is ready. Although they don't have the traditional Vietnamese service nor anyone who could speak the language, I am glad to be there to help out, they were also very understanding, the viewing based on what we paid were only 30 minutes maximum with the capacity of 5 people. But we have more visitors than just family and friends, so they extended the time to an hour long, and gave us the entire room so we can have some farewell ceremony. I would recommend Featheringill for anyone in the future who need the service, I also would say try to keep the amount of people to about 10-15 guests as they have a small parking lot. read more

See all

A family owned business that I highly recommend. I was greeted with a warm & genuine sense of caring & every aspect of arranging for the funeral of my beloved partner was handled with dignity & sensitivity. read more

Very thoughtful and caring team at Featheringill. They handled my mom with care and guided us during this difficult time. Thank you Featheringill read more

The service requested was everything they mentioned over the phone. Kori greeted us w care and available to help with all the necessities needed to have our special service. Parking is limited but staff provides Valet when needed. It's a cute & quaint venue perfect for small services. We are grateful for all the help we received. Blessings to the staff for helping families in their time of distress. read more

Comforting and quick service. Wonderful dealing direct with the 3rd generation family of owners. Best rate in the county. Really appreciate the book with helpful information and note pages for vital information to keep track of. Highly recommended read more

12/20/2023 My husband recently passed away and we had pre-planned with Featheringill Mortuary. They were so helpful, professional, considerate, patient and understanding. From the staff to the gentlemen who removed his body from the house and transported it back to the mortuary, everything was done in a respectful and dignified manner. read more

Lovely people who helped make a difficult process easy. I recommend Featheringill mortuary to anyone in the central or East San Diego area.

Wow! How great is it when someone will take time to not only respond to your message request but actually take time to research and give you pertinent information even though it's not their field of expertise? Very rare in most cases. I had in my possession my mother's cremated remains that I wanted to place in a crematorium or niche. Having it at home wasn't -in my opinion- the right and honorable thing to do so I called around to have it placed in a nice and affordable crematorium. Easier said than done as some of the funeral service companies just blew me off with comments like "No we don't do that. Good bye." Kori,-on the other hand-manager of Featheringill Mortuary, is a gentleman indeed, who would go out his way to help others in time of need. He took his time to message me back with a list of companies that will assist me from least expensive to more. What better person to represent a business that is essential to each of us in some point in our life when we are most vulnerable!! I'm very grateful to his kind gesture and will definitely recommend his company to my family and friends should the need arise. Thank you, Kori! read more

Handled the process of laying my father to rest with compassion. Friendly staff and clear explanations of the process was appreciated

I love them and treated my loved one with so much respect. They are so flexible with so many things and price is reasonable. There was a mistake working with a diferent funeral home and Featheringil resolved it for us so quick. Forever grateful read more

Ok-this is long overdue and I feel like they should get some love too- considering the kindness they showed to me while we set up my loved ones final preparations and this was in 2020, during the sad Covid days. The cost was really good and the staff were very nice and compassionate. It's super hard to handle this stuff when everyone is in quarantine, and you're in mourning and they made it super easy for me to get it done. Most of it was done on the phone. Respectful family operation and much, much lower than another facility that was going to take his ashes out to sea for almost 1000 $ more. We were able to take care of this on our own in a special way. They took care of my aunt years ago, same great experience. read more

My husband and I attended a celebration of life service at Feathergill recently. It was beautiful and nicely done.

My parents have both passed away in the past 5 years. My father made all of the arrangements prior to his death including purchasing the insurance thru Featheringill Mortuary to pay for the expenses. I was impressed by how well Featheringill completed all of their last requests and the insurance covered 98% of all the costs. At the service they were accommodating and wonderful. They've been doing this a long time and made the whole process really easy and kind. At that time, it was really a blessing. read more

I called the mortuary with questions about where a deceased person would go with no family. They were very helpful and professional.

Very homey atmosphere. My family was very please with the service at this mortuary. The staff help us from the time our love one passed away, had service at the mortuary and shipped to Vietnam for burial. The price was reasonable. The service was Buddhist, it's hard to find anywhere in town. Rose Tran, and her staff, despite many difficulties in satisfying demands from our cultural tradition, monks, altar display, our active youngsters; made things smooth-out for us. Our love one landed in Vietnam the next day. We were grateful to have Featheringill mortuary guide us through this emotional moment. read more

I recently had to deal with a death in the family. I was overwhelmed with all the preparations since this was my first go at preparing a funeral. Went to about 4 or 5 funeral homes before I settled on Featheringill. It's smaller than the other places I checked out, but it was big enough to meet our family's needs. Cost was more than fair, but mostly importantly the service I received from Kori and his family at was exceptional. From the initial consultation to the final meeting, I could not have asked for a better group of people to guide my family through the dificult times. If you are ever in a similar situation, do your research and check out as many funeral homes to find the place to meet your needs. But you owe it to yourself and your family to add Featheringill Mortuary to the list. read more

Great place for a first date I highly coffins are pretty comfortable nice and quiet no one will disturb you so I again will highly recommend read more

Beyond great service. Everything was done over the phone/email. Easy and extremely comfortable considering the situation. I really appreciate everything. Thank you. read more

Because of my husband's age and health, I wanted to avoid as much stress as possible for his final days by planning ahead. Friends recommended Featheringill Mortuary. I spoke to Terri about 18 months before my husband died. She was so helpful. She listened to what my husband and I wanted, gave me several excellent suggestions and options, and I was able to fill out most of the preliminary documentation so that they could have it on file. I did not have to commit to any financial agreement. When he died on a Saturday night, knowing who to call was one less stressor for me. All of the Featheringill personnel were thoughtful, considerate, and professional, supporting us as we made final arrangements. We held a viewing and a small service in the mortuary chapel, and our family was very pleased by the attentiveness of the staff. I am very grateful that in the midst of such a stressful period, this critical piece was handled so well. read more

When you need this type of business and I guess most of us will Featheringill prices snd top notch service is the one. One on one person attention. Second time using their business. Brenda K read more

The loss of a loved one is devastating. When the person is young it is more devastating. When it is by suicide it is hard to get off the floor. Kori, Max and staff could not have been kinder. They guided us through the process mostly over the phone without demands of payment. They help us make the arraignments with as little effort as possible. Thank You! read more

I didn't like this mortuary for many reasons. The parking sucks and it's very cramped. It was disorganized. The one in charge, Rose, I didn't really like her approach very much. Food that was used as offerings during the funeral service was thrown away. Most people would have taken it home. There weren't enough tables and chairs when people had their lunch break. People were confused at where the location to enter the building were. Some entered through the back, some entered through the side during service, and barely anyone entered through the front. Also, lack of air conditioning. Literally, everyone was sweating in the viewing room. Another eye sore was that certain parts of the room was out dated and needs renovation. You could see water stains up in the ceilings and outside of the building, looks like a run down residential house. It's very dull looking. I guess fitting for a mortuary, right? During service people were getting lost with the scheduling, and sometimes, Rose, couldn't be found. There was a Hispanic guy who worked for the mortuary who was present the whole funeral service, but he couldn't help us because he wasn't responsible to manage the service. He was there to display and put away the body and casket. This mortuary needs improvement. read more

Max and his family treated us with kindness and sensitivity during a very difficult time. When my father passed away quite suddenly last month, my family was left with a lot of important decisions to make, and not much time to make them. Featheringill Mortuary gave us comfort, security, and options at an affordable cost (they were actually $1000 less for the cremation and urn than El Cajon Mortuary), and they do everything by the book. My father rests now in a beautiful zebrawood box on a bookshelf in my home, next to an urn in which rest the ashes of his favorite cat, Kazzy, just like he wanted. The box is beautiful, unique, and solid, just like my father was. Thanks to this business, I have the deep satisfaction of knowing that my father's wishes were honored. read more

Max and Kyle assisted with my husband's service. Everything went smoothly. They are professional and compassionate.

All of the staff at Featheringill are compassionate, patient, and helpful. They helped me with my mother's cremation, and set up her internment at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery. The cost was very reasonable and everything was included in the cost I was originally quoted. I want to thank them for helping me during a horrible time. I highly recommend their services in your time of need. read more

I chose them for our pre-need direct cremation services because they have been in business so many years. I see the sign every time I drive up El Cajon Blvd. Kori Truesdale informed me that the business was started by his grandparents, and he is carrying on the tradition. It is good to know that they have endurect. He took care of my needs quickly and efficiently. read more

Wonderful, helpful, caring and trustworthy family run business. Took care of both my parents in '95 & '96, then with the unexpected passing of my sister in Dec 2016 they were effortless to deal with; would have been happy at twice the price. Called when she was discovered and they had staff onsite to recover the body within an hour. Truly a can't miss to deal with the Featheringill family. read more

This was a wonderful experience considering the circumstances, such accommodating, wonderful people. My Stepson passed away, the social worker at the hospital called around, so many places gave crazy prices, but offered to price match if we got other quotes... really! A bit shocking to have to negotiate these things, Glen Abbey did that... so we are so happy that we came across Featheringill Mortuary, a great price straight away, they deducted things that we didn't need, the customer service was so warm and caring, you can really tell that this is a family owned business. One of them said that for them this is a service, not a job, not a business.. they made this time...easier. Thank you so much. read more
