For those going through this the first time we recommend you ask for: * Vocabulary: Clarity re: item such as honorarium, embalming vs. refrigeration, internment, committal, vault, and marketing forms such as the "Circle of Protection" * Mortuary vs. Cemetery: Clarity re: the separation between these two entities and the legal process for providing access to communicate and make decisions specifically related to Advanced Health Care Directives. * Timelines: Clarity on timelines for scheduling services in advance. Our family assumed using the chapel would be more efficient; later we found out later the wait would be minimally 2 weeks. * Priests/ Musicians: Clarity re: availability/ cost for these important members of the service. There are different issues for churches vs. chapel. * Eulogies: Because we were initially not using our own priest we were given a 2-3 min limit, which was upsetting and insensitive. Once we provided our own priest, we were told he would decide the length of eulogies. Brian J.

I called a couple of different places that didn't seem well prepared. From the very first phone call, Camino Del Sol was incredibly understanding, compassionate, and patient. They took the time to answer all of my questions and made a very difficult situation a little easier. Losing a loved one is never easy, but Leticia was such a comfort during the process. She helped me every step of the way and made sure everything was taken care of, allowing me to focus on my family instead of worrying about the details. The facility itself is beautiful and welcoming. I highly recommend Camino Del Sol to anyone looking for a funeral home that truly cares about the families they serve. They also offer preplanning services, which is a wonderful option for anyone wanting to plan ahead.

From the very beginning of the process to the end of the funeral, everything was handled with care, compassion, and professionalism. During such a difficult time, their guidance, patience, and attention to detail brought our family so much peace. The decorations, flowers, memorial altar, hall, catered food, music, and service were all absolutely perfect. Our guests loved the food, the hall and the atmosphere. Plenty of space for everyone. They were with us every step of the way: from the viewing, greeting guests, rosary, mass, interment. Every detail reflected love, dignity, and respect, and truly honored his life in the most beautiful way. Deacon Henry Barajas was also amazing and so caring. He has such a beautiful way with words and prayer. He helped our hearts find comfort and peace. Thank you for creating such a comforting and memorable celebration of life for my father-in-law. We will forever be grateful for your kindness and dedication. Highly recommend.

They had very competitive pricing (beats the cemetery pricing) and a nice variety to choose from. They had benches and other items available too.

Next week we should get a visual example of what we've requested and how the final item will appear. The gentleman that helped us made us feel like old friends instead of customers. He got to know us and had patience with us during the selection process while helping us stay joyus during what for me was a difficult time. We've seen their work at other loved ones gravesites so we know they do wonderful work. Highly recommend them if you're out in Oxnard. They also service another local area but forgot what that was, call to inquire if you're just outside Oxnard.

We knew we would soon need funerary assistance, and I called Ivy Lawn to find out what to do when her time came. I had passed their cemetery in Ventura many times, but had no prior knowledge or experience with them. I spoke with a lovely woman (Dominique?), who shared that we only needed to call when the time came. They provide 24/7 service, and don't need any prior paperwork, no advance payment, etc. On the morning she passed, we called. Nick was there within 2 hours to take care of everything with such calm kindness. He provided such respectful service and informed us of the next steps. I was surprised at the small touches that he also offers, for example, he had an American flag covering for veterans. They have two locations: Camarillo and Ventura. We had an appointment with Nick a couple of days later at the Ventura location to sign papers, review information, order death certificates, etc. He walked us through all the options, answered all our questions, and we never felt like this was a "sale" in any way. Nothing was pushed at us, just straight information. We chose cremation and found their rates in line with those of others offering this service. We collected the remains at the Camarillo location. I believe this is where the cremation services happen. We could have also collected the remains at the Ventura location with advance notice. As we visited both locations in this process, I can state that they are both lovely options for funeral/memorial services as well.

I see no other giant signs placed on the side of the road to advertise their services. I am surprised Ivy Lawn does not have marketing materials outside of CMH or local hospices.
