From the very beginning, Sonia was compassionate, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. There was an error on my mother's death certificate from the hospital, and Sonia went above and beyond to help us get it corrected and ensure everything was handled properly. She gave my family and me the time and space we needed to grieve while she took care of all the details surrounding the services. Throughout the entire process, Sonia communicated clearly, kept us informed, and made sure everything was handled with care and professionalism. Her compassion and dedication truly made a difficult experience a little easier for our family. I would highly recommend Sonia to anyone in need of funeral services. We are extremely grateful for everything she did for our family during such a difficult time.

Losing our father is devastating but Sonia made our decision making easier with her grace. A very special thank you Sonia, who was truly amazing throughout the entire funeral arrangement process for my father. She was incredibly communicative, patient, and never once made us feel pressured into making decisions. She took the time to answer all of our questions, guided us with genuine care, and helped make an overwhelming experience a little easier to navigate. We are deeply grateful for the professionalism and heartfelt support we received. Thank you for helping us honor my father's life with dignity and compassion. We will always remember your kindness.

It is never easy to lose a loved one. Our loved one passed away in our home, as they had wished,…read morewhich meant that we needed to make arrangements and could not move forward until a funeral home came to our house and helped us with next steps. Likewise our kind local sheriff needed to remain with us until someone arrived. Originally we contacted a funeral home in our area that is well known. We were given an estimated time of arrival of "within the hour." When that time came and passed I called and was given the same estimated time of "within the hour." When I was on my third hour of waiting with our loved one still on the floor where we had tried CPR, and the kind sheriff, patiently waiting, I began to call other funeral homes. I left a message at 2 others then on my third try I contacted "A Serenity Funeral & Cremation Services" and Daniel answered the phone. Despite having a busy morning right from the get-go he was kind, compassionate and forthright. He let me know he was having a busy morning and would do his very best to get there within the hour. He arrived within 30 minutes along with another gentleman. The compassion, tenderness and grace that they showed our loved one and to us, who we're newly grieving was an answered prayer. They reverently allowed us our final goodbyes and had no problem when I wanted to include a special blanket to wrap our loved one in. Daniel sat with us, answered questions and patiently walked us through the process. The kindness and care that Serenity Funeral and cremation services showed us should be a model for the industry. When we finished all the paperwork we realized that "A Serenity" was actually a fraction of the price of what we were going to pay with the locally touted company that continually told me it would be "within the hour." I highly recommend a Serenity Funeral and cremation services. While death is a part of life Daniel from Serenity made us feel as if the loss of our loved one was the most important thing in the world at that moment ..which for us it was. Thank you Daniel. Thank you Serenity Funeral and cremation services

She enjoyed travel and great adventures. Rosie made sure to explain what the plan included, what was required of us from creating a playlist of mom's favorite songs to a collage of portraits and photos from her childhood to mementos that were to be on display at her memorial. Any questions were readily answered and resolved. The day of memorial two of her associates, Rosemarie and Fernando, were in charge from start to finish. From the moment all guests arrived until the end of the reception. They both were very competent and made our families and guests feel very welcomed and comfortable. They did an amazing job with the display in the chapel and the reception area.

They were very responsive to all of our questions and really made the whole process much easier than I thought it would be. We really appreciated that as we were still trying to process our Mom's passing. They're the best! They arranged a meeting point midway between Glendale and where we lived in Orange County to transfer our urns to us. I highly, highly recommend Anubis.

I cannot thank Pierre, Vahik, and the entire team at Always There Funeral Services enough for…read moreeverything they did for our family. When my father-in-law passed away in Orange County, our wish was to bring him back to his homeland, Iran, to be laid to rest in his hometown. Pierre helped us from the very beginning with incredible kindness, compassion, and respect. He quickly arranged transportation from Orange County to their facility in Los Angeles and made sure my father-in-law was treated with dignity and care. For the remainder of the process, I worked primarily with Vahik, who handled the extremely complicated international arrangements, permits, documentation, and transportation. Communication was always clear and transparent, and we knew what to expect every step of the way. When political developments unexpectedly suspended flights into Iran while the journey was already underway, Vahik and the team did not give up. They coordinated new documentation in Turkey, found an alternative route to an airport near the Iranian border, and arranged ground transportation so our family could receive my father-in-law and finally bring him to his hometown. During one of the hardest times in our lives, they took an enormous burden off our family. Their compassion, professionalism, communication, and determination to find a solution were truly exceptional. Most importantly, they helped us fulfill our final wish for our loved one and bring him home with dignity. Our family will always be grateful to Pierre, Vahik, and everyone at Always There Funeral Services. I highly recommend them, especially to any family facing the difficult process of international transportation and repatriation of a loved one.

His name was Louie Fregoso, and he immediately stopped what he was doing and helped me find where I needed to go. Once we got there, he even asked if everything looked okay and if there was anything that needed maintenance, which I honestly wasn't expecting. While we were talking, I realized he had actually directed a service for someone I know before. I remember them having nothing but good things to say about how everything was handled, so it was nice putting a face to the name. Louie was really patient, professional and just genuinely nice to talk to. He never made me feel like I was bothering him or like he was trying to rush off. Considering the reason most people are at Forest Lawn in the first place, that kind of compassion really does make a difference. Funny enough, I ended up randomly running into him outside of work later on and recognized him right away. I went up to thank him again because I really did appreciate how he treated me that day. Definitely wanted to give Louie Fregoso the recognition he deserves.

It was a genuinely nice service and my friend said that the staff were professional, compassionate, and did a good job of organizing the event.
