I am barley now leaving a review. These service were provided on April 17th, 2017…read more I would like to thank James for his help and patients in assisting me with my Fiancés cremation preparations. He was very kind, professional and had a lot of patients with me and my fiancés twin brother who was not a pleasant person to deal with. James never lost his cool. Every time I would call or had questions James would either answer my call or call me back in a timely matter. Our situation was different then most and the quickness of everything getting done on a certain date was above and beyond. Even after the services he was still very helpful with questions I had. The inside of the building is nice and the staff was great. They allowed us to stay longer then anticipated. Thank you very much for all your great help during this extremely difficult time.

I picked up my father's remains today and was actually shocked by the conditions of the facility…read more The staff was nice enough, but the area in which they have you wait for your loved one is nothing short of disgusting. Not only can you hear them cremating the remains of others in the next room, but you can actually SMELL them burning!!!! Their office area is in complete disarray and the furniture they offer you to sit on is dirty and tore up. They put zero effort into making their space comfortable, or at the bare minimum clean. I'm not one to typically leave reviews, but this was beyond unacceptable! I would refrain from having your loved ones cremated here unless you're looking to add a little extra trauma on top of the trauma you are already going through.

After the pickup we were told that a representative would reach out to us the following day so we could start making arrangements. They didn't call till 3 days later even after leaving them multiple messages! Imagine not knowing what's happening to your loved one or where they are located after they died. Our assigned rep only called AFTER I switched to Anubis Cremations and had arrangements for the body to be brought to their facilities. Wesleigh was so easy to work with. She picked up my call right away and took care of everything. She communicated every step of the way. I told her that my uncle who is a priest will be arriving in 2 weeks and we would like for the cremation and memorial service to happen while he was here. She mentioned that it's a very tight schedule but she would try to make it happen. And she 100% delivered!!! Within an hour of my initial call she had my auntie's body arranged for pickup, she sent paperwork to us and the doctor so she could start the process of filing the death certificate. The church where we wanted the memorial service wouldn't let us reserve a time till they had a cremation date. We were able to get the cremation date within a few days. We opted for a private open viewing at the crematory in Van Nuys. The crematory only does night time viewing which worked well for us since our family is busy working during the day. Wesleigh's coworker Jonathan took great care of us at the viewing. The place had a room for up to 15 people where family members could sit with the casket prior to the cremation. They dressed our auntie in her formal barong and jewelry. We were allowed to provide flowers, letters, and mementoes in the cardboard casket. Jonathan gave us sharpies so we could write notes on the casket. There were aslo tissues and an easel for our use. Although the viewing was technically 15 minutes, we were not rushed and were given about 20-25 minutes to do a prayer service and say our goodbyes. And then Jonathan and another employee wheeled her into the crematory. We watched them place her casket in the "oven" and once the door closed we left. They even allowed us to live stream the entire time we were there to our auntie's relatives back in the Philippines. The following day Wesleigh delivered the ashes to the church and she provided the letters and instructions we needed to bring the ashes back to the Philippines. We were also very happy with the urn we ordered from Anubis. It was engraved and had a photo of our auntie. It was perfect. I can't thank Wesleigh and Jonathan enough for providing an outstanding service that was stress-free, efficient, compassionate, and super professional during this difficult time of grief. I whole-heartedly recommend Annubis.

Thanks to them we were able to obtain a Catholic mass & funeral services in our back yard. Our concern was also to get our mom's cremation/Urn within a two week time frame. Chavez Funeral &Cremation delivered reliability, assertiveness & expedited our request. A reputable foundation nonetheless. Under the circumstances where the last thing you need is more task to tackle, Chavez Funeral& cremations took a huge weight of our hands. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Especially to Sonia. Excellent, well done. Cons: Some reviews say that This organization doesn't get back in time. I totally can understand the frustration(under the circumstances) however a simple call and text to, friendly remind Sonia or her staff will solve that miscommunication. Any organization can get backed up or busy but I can assure you it's an easy fix. Atleast it worked for me. Best.

My mother passed away two months ago, and navigating everything that comes with that loss felt overwhelming. From the very beginning, their team made the entire process feel straightforward and manageable. They were incredibly respectful, responsive, and handled every detail with care and dignity. One thing that really stood out to me was their pricing. Everything was clearly laid out upfront, all-inclusive, and exactly as quoted--no hidden fees, no surprise add-ons. After dealing with other companies where costs kept creeping up, this level of transparency was such a relief. It allowed us to focus on honoring my mom instead of worrying about unexpected expenses. What stood out most overall was how easy they made everything during such an emotional time. There was no confusion, no added stress--just clear communication and genuine support when it mattered most. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Opal Cremation Services of Greater Los Angeles to anyone going through this process. They truly bring peace of mind when you need it the most.

Throughout the entire process, the team was truly incredible. Troy, Yasi, and Fabuki were supportive, compassionate, and professional in every single interaction. Whether through phone calls or emails, their communication was always clear, timely, and comforting. They guided me and my family through each step with genuine care and made sure we understood everything along the way. I also want to give a special thank-you to Heath, who personally hand-delivered my dad's remains to me. His kindness and respect in that moment meant more than I can express. Opal Cremation is an exceptional company with an extraordinary team. Their teamwork, compassion, and dedication made a heartbreaking experience so much easier to navigate. I am truly grateful for everything they did for my family, and I highly recommend them to anyone who needs support during such a difficult time.

I just googled cremation services as I had no guidance. My mom passed at a Kaiser hospital so the process with transfer was seamless. I called late in the evening and did talk to Lawrence immediately. He explained the cost and process. From there it was pretty easy. Just had to wait for the cremation to happen. They arranged for her remains to be dropped off directly to our house which happened in a timely manner. I had asked that she be placed in an "urn" for us. I purchased off Amazon a rosewood box with a picture frame in front. I didn't to have to deal with taking the plastic bag of ashes and putting them in myself, so they had me dropship the urn to them and they handled it for me. THANK YOU! I would not hesitate to recommend them and most likely will be calling on them when my father ultimately passes. During a difficult situation you don't need any poor customer service or any problems and that is exactly what I DIDN'T get from them..no problems and excellent customer service. Thank you!
