Crist Mortuary in Boulder Colorado offered no easy online setup for services. When I called, I got…read moreto leave a voice messsage. They never called me back. So days later I tried to make an appointment to set up service in person and was told I had to make an appointment and somebody would call me back that day. They did not call back even days later. I could just imagine how horrible this kind of service would be in the heat of the moment, and in the emotional state of grief. I'm very glad that I chose a different Mortuary. No Thanks Crist!

Rating a mortuary is never a pleasant task for obvious reasons. I can only say that I am writing…read morethis review with tears in my eyes and a smile on my face. Crist Mortuary, and especially Larissa Carneiro, were absolutely wonderful assisting our family with the passing my wife and their mother. In short, Larissa was beyond kind, considerate and thoughtful. It was if she was a family member. She handled both administrative and practical matters that we did not even consider. The greatest gift she provided, unbeknownst to me, was to arrange with the Veterans Administration to have secure the plot next to my wife ("we met in the Air Force over 40 years ago"). I don't make unconditional recommendations lightly, but consider this the best of the best. God Bless. Any by the way, she never solicited or asked for a review...

My aunt passed recently and the staff both at Darrell Howe Mortuary and Green Mountain Cemetery…read moreeased over all the concerns I had. She lived in Oregon along her remaining family and getting her shipped to Colorado and laid to rest next to her parents was made a smooth process. The cemetery is in a beautiful location at the foot of the Flatirons in Boulder. Snow fell the day before. The day of her burial found the site snow covered with a crisp blue sky and glorious sun in early January. We really appreciated the extra mile the staff went to in making such a dazzling day weather-wise. We walked the entire cemetery after the memorial and it is a truly beautiful and peaceful area. To top it all off, the folks at Green Mountain honored her entire purchase plan from way back in 1981!

My father had a burial plot there for many years, but ended up not using it so I sold it. The…read morecemetery people mentioned that people really complained about the dandelions and other weeds. So I'm offering a creative solution to those who don't like to see those bright little harbingers of warm weather. WILTED SPRING DANDELION GREENS 3 lbs. dandelion greens, washed, trimmed and torn into 1-inche pieces. 3T olive oil 1/3 cup white wine vinegar 3T granulated sugar 2T unsalted butter Salt and freshly ground pepper In a large heavy pot heat olive oil over moderately high heat. Add greens and toss to coat. Add vinegar and sugar, toss to combine, cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes until tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper, transfer to serving dish, and top with butter. So next time you visit Green Mountain, don't grouse, get creative!

John, Mary and Mike ensured that our Celebration of Life went flawlessly and everyone that attended had a very nice time.

I love that the cremation was environmentally friendly and not crazy expensive. Every aspect, from initiating contact to picking up my father's remains, was handled with the utmost care and respect.

Mike took consideration of every detail of our service, and the whole experience couldn't have been more perfect.

The memories of the service and burial have been a beautiful experience for our family and friends. I highly recommend MP Murphy and Associates for all of your funeral needs - the sensitivity and love that goes into the planning and service is outstanding.

I worked for this place. He really is a miserable, little man. It was the most fly- by- night place…read moreI've ever worked for. He has no prep on premise and has to outsource all cremation and preparation. He once had me call a Spanish speaker to pick up the ashes of her infant. I'm not fluent in Spanish and it made for a very awkward situation. He simply is incapable on words of praise. For a year, I toldthis man to have a good night as I left. Every night his response was, "yup." He's not a caring person. Please spend your money elsewhere.

My loved one had a prepaid service here. I met with a representative named John who could not have…read morebeen more helpful and compassionate. He helped me through all of the steps of planning the service, ordering the essentials, and reserving the chapel time. He was there for me every step of the way on this difficult journey. The chapel and service turned out to be beautiful and honored my loved one in a dignified and comforting manner. The woman in charge of arranging the entombment was difficult to work with. She was unprofessional, pushy, and tried to rush me through the process even though I asked her to slow down so I could ask questions and fully understand the process and paperwork. She needs more training or a different job. Finally, the St. Anthony Crypt where my loved one's final resting place was to be was dirty. Before the service I asked if it could be swept, dusted, and cleaned of dead bugs and cobwebs (all around and on the fountain with the statue of Mary). The morning of the service, I went to check and it had not been cleaned in any way. I returned with cleaning supplies and did it myself a couple of hours before the service. By the way, the fountain no longer operates so the least they could do is keep it clean.

If I could leave zero stars, I would. My baby was laid to rest here in October 2024. At the time, I…read morewas told it would take about 3-6 months for the headstone to be placed. Those months passed, and nothing happened. There was no headstone, no grass--just dirt and a lot of waiting. Throughout this process, my mom and I have been in contact with Jessica. We were given four different dates and timeframes for when the headstone would be installed. Each time, we were told it would only be "a few more weeks." We checked again in February--still nothing. We returned on May 17th and still nothing. I sent another email hoping for answers and never received a response. Today is December 15th, 2025. It has been over a year, and there is still no headstone and no update. Every visit breaks my heart all over again. This has been an incredibly painful experience during an already unbearable time, and I am deeply disappointed. I wish I had spared myself more heartbreak and laid my baby to rest somewhere else. Please spare yourself the added pain and consider carefully before placing your loved ones in the care of Mount Olivet. In my experience, there was a profound lack of compassion and understanding during an already unimaginable time of grief. What should have been handled with care and respect instead became another source of heartbreak.
