Planning a funeral is not easy. Fortunately, I started my mothers early and it made it simpler. Mt…read moreWhitney Funeral Home was very good at answering questions I had and giving me information I would need to know in advance. I was not rushed nor felt as if they did not care. I was given plenty of options on how to set things up and prepare for the time I would need to finalize everything. When that time came, just the phone call was all I needed to get everything set in motion. I deeply appreciate the comfort they gave me in the whole process.

Through it all, they all went above and beyond the call of duty and took me through all of this step by step and were incredibly patient with me as a stumbled through my words to answer their questions.

Pretty cool little pull off from the road. We saw the sign as we were driving and I wanted to stop,…read moreso we did. Try not to drive too fast because you can miss it. We did so we had to go back. There's a mixture of older tombstones and some that are more recent. There's kind of an eerie feeling when walking around and it's sad to see the children who have died. The cemetery overlooks a nice valley so great photo ops of nature. I didn't take too many photos inside the cemetery because it didn't feel right, but I do have one of the plaque right in front that explains the history behind the cemetery. Definitely a must see if you are in the area.

It's cool to see how many of the original pioneers in the valley were from England or Ireland. You can also recognize names from the streets in the surrounding neighborhoods. Maybe you can ponder the mystery of why so many young men passed away in 1876. Mining accident? Disease? Who knows. That's a question for the kind folks at the Kernville Museum. And a small request: Please pick up any trash you happen to find on the cemetery grounds if you do visit.

They started are well but the day of the funeral, hardly anything was right. The folder as they…read morecall them were not what was discussed. We paid for the whole stationary package and there were no prayer cards anywhere. I've asked around and no one received them. The thank you notes have printing all over them and a huge advertisement for the funeral home on them. The table at the cemetery for my fathers ashes looked like a Costco children's table. I'm grateful a friend and small blanket to cover the table to make it look nice. The were was no direction from the funeral home before hand so everything was rushed the day of even though I emailed John a week in advance to go over the way the day would play out. Every time someone from the funeral home got on the microphone they reminded our guests what funeral home they were from. My whole family has gone through this funeral home in the past, before it was sold to this new company. It's sad to see the way they are running it now.

Any request we made were accommodated without any questions asked. John and the staff has been very respectful and professionals. When we had questions, they would answer the question or find another person to answer. When we asked for something to be done whether in the a small detail to a larger, they did it. It was nice to feel welcome in Delano Mortuary during this difficult time. We asked for a live stream so that family from Germany, Philippines, Indiana and Fairfield could see the funeral. John did it. We asked for our playlist to be played instead of instrumental, Delano Mortuary did it. We asked for the casket to be lifted so we could go under, Delano Mortuary did it. I am very impress with the professionalism and respect that Delano Mortuary showed my family during this grieving time.

This place does not care about your loved ones. They will not pay for a new well to be put in…read morebecause it's to expensive even tho they made a killing during COVID, all the grass is dead. Family members we're bringing their own water hoses to water.. now they put a stop to that too! They changed out all the faucets so you can not hook up your water hose to them. The grounds keepers have no respect for headstones when "doing their job" when mowing and weed eating, don't think they are going to clean up after themselves! They are much to busy trying to look busy. Here is the proof I spent about an hour polishing my Father's headstone and came the next day to find this. Talking to them is like talking to the wall they don't care and blame the "board members" they just collect your money.

I had previously gone to a place in Visalia and Fresno and NOTHING, NOTHING, Compares to the service I received from them- place is small, but they have a great display and selection. Prices are much cheaper as well as other places in big cities. I highly, highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to purchase their loved ones stone for their gravesite.
