In some cases the legalities. My 88 year old dad wanted me to take care of this, but they needed his permission for me to do that. Helped me get all the right paper work. Communication was spot on. They helped facilitate picking the ashes up closer to where I live. No question was too much. I struggled with whether or not to have an obituary for my mom in the newspaper. They have an obituary service on their website. Perfect. I sent the link to who I thought would want it. What I didn't know was how distant family I didn't know about could do a search online and find it. Then contact me to send their condolences. I price checked a few places and they were competitive, convenient and comforting.

From our first interaction, Eugene, our funeral director, created an atmosphere of dignity and care that brought comfort when it was needed most. All services were provided with exceptional attention and sensitivity. Eugene took the time to explain each step and ensured everything was managed with grace. His kindness and empathy were evident throughout the entire process, and it was clear the staff at Lassila Funeral Chapel truly cares about the families they serve. They also included after-the-services follow-up help to provide care to the family. We are deeply appreciative of the compassion and professionalism shown to us and definitely recommend their services.

From the moment we arrived, I felt supported. The staff was incredibly kind and thoughtful, making sure every detail of the burial service was handled with care. They created a peaceful, beautiful environment that truly honored my dog's life, which meant more to me than I can express. During such a painful time, it's rare to find people who lead with this level of empathy and professionalism. I'm so grateful for the comfort they provided and the dignity they gave my dog in her final resting place. If you are ever in the position of needing these services, I wholeheartedly recommend them. They made an incredibly difficult day just a little bit easier, and I will always be thankful.

Unfortunately we had a recent unexpected death in the family and had the daunting task of selecting…read morea funeral home to handle everything. We were in touch with the funeral director Brian from the beginning until today when we finalized all arrangements. He kept in contact with us updating us along the way with each step and was quick to provide answers to questions as we were navigating our loss and were unsure of certain processes. They were very upfront with pricing and options along the way and had catalogs to select urns, caskets and cremation jewelry. If you visit the funeral home you can see some of the options in person. I understand since COVID that they also adjusted options for finalizing your loved one's services and burial via online form completion and selections which could save a trip or two to the funeral home especially for people who are out of the area or mobility challenged. We opted to do most items in person and visited the funeral home that is located in Old Roseville. It was easy to locate and parking is available onsite. They also have a chapel for services if a family would like to hold them there. Overall our experience was smooth and easy to navigate. Despite it being one of the hardest things we have had to do in life, we felt at ease knowing things were being taken care of. We would like to thank Brian and Cochrane and Wagemann for a smooth journey and care of our loved one.

When you're faced with a sudden, unexpected death, shopping around for a funeral home is not really…read morean option. We chose Cochrane & Wageman because they had 5 stars. But, we did not have the same 5 star experience as others may have had. Brian was nice & answered our questions as we could think of them. In this situation, who knows what to ask?!? You're in shock. You're mourning a huge loss in your life. Our loss was our daughter. Cochrane & Wageman is much smaller than any funeral home I've ever been in for grandparents, parents, etc. During the service, Doug Wageman commented that they'd never had such a large turn out before...ever...not even for Congressman. Before the service Doug & I spoke by cell phone so that he could get a sense of Melissa's short life on this earth. Her likes, hobbies, friends, family, etc. During the service, Doug, called her "Melinda" twice!!! (He did catch himself the second time). Can you imagine the shock of our sweet Melissa being referred to by a different name during her memorial service?!? By a seasoned "professional"? I was heart-broken & still can't believe that I didn't correct him right then & there. The shock was too deep I believe. How the heck does that happen?!? Once, it's a mistake & you apologize. But twice?!? Another issue that was brought up by several people was the lack of a designated attendant by a C & W employee as people arrived & to answer any questions. We had a couple people in wheelchairs & we had to go find somebody, in offices, to find out where they could safely position their chairs, as not to block entrances for fire safety, etc. I asked for a lock of my daughter's hair & was told by Brian that they would cut her ponytail off at the holder. I told them no. My girl was not going into her heavenly home without her ponytail! I only want a lock. Sounds ridiculous to some, I'm sure. But we all grieve differently. On the online memorial wall, people left messages & could purchase a tree to be planted in Melissa's name. When I asked where the trees would be planted, I was told that the trees would be planted in Paradise, CA. I wanted to confirm this a couple weeks later I was told that they never told me that. Ok, I'm in mourning, but I know what I heard. We were so excited to hear that our girl's tree would be in Paradise. A local devastation that she would be helping to rebuild. I believe that was told to me by Doug Wageman. In the end, the employees, which are very few, were somber & polite but I wouldn't recommend them. Getting our daughter's name wrong was a definite deal breaker.

03/30/2026 - My family had a very disappointing and upsetting experience with a graveyard director…read morenamed Lizzy. During such a sensitive and emotional time, her behavior was incredibly unprofessional and lacked basic compassion. She was impatient, dismissive, and even rolled her eyes while we were performing a cultural ritual to honor and say goodbye to our grandmother. We were delayed about 20 minutes because a few family members took a wrong turn, but during that time, we could have been given the opportunity to spend meaningful final moments with our loved one. Instead, that opportunity was taken from us. When we were finally allowed to view our grandmother, we were given only a few seconds, barely enough time to process the moment, while Lizzy counted down with her fingers. It felt rushed, cold, and deeply disrespectful. She then left immediately afterward, offering no support or understanding. This is a beautiful graveyard where our family members are laid to rest, and in the past, we've had directors who were kind, patient, and accommodating. That is why this experience was especially shocking. No grieving family should be treated with such insensitivity. I truly hope no one else has to go through what we experienced.

I'm a Yelper, if I'm in an unfamiliar territory looking for a restaurant or need a service, I…read moreYelp. Read reviews, look at pics etc. This was not one of those times. I'm glad I didn't!!!! My Dad passed away and my Mother requested Doves at the burial ceremony which was a month away. I Googled Doves release in Auburn, CA. Doves of White was the only search that came up in the territory. I went to the website link and found it very professional and very informative. On the home page had Kathy's information, phone and email to correspond. I elected to make a call. I'm in sales, I've learned in texting, emails, don't always work in translation. Kathy answered on the first call. I told her that this was for my Dads funeral service, he was a Purple Heart Vet and this was my mothers request at the burial ceremony. We talked about her services, her pricing etc. This is her company, and what she could offer me and my family. I got the 411 from her and then she asked me probing questions. Is there going to be a US Guard ceremony to present a flag? - Yes Is there going to be pastoral rights given? - Yes She informed me that she'd be present at the cemetery 30 minutes before it presided and that she'd have words appropriate for the ceremony and that the person who received the flag she'd offer a dove with her help to release personally. She also informed me of her payment policy, check or something else (which I don't remember) No deposit needed, but payment due at the time of her and her wonderful doves service. I informed her of the date. She was free. It was set. That conversation was over a month ago. So this week, 7/31/23. I called her to confirm, Yes Mr. --- We are all confirmed and set. Today, 8/3/23, we arrived at the cemetery 30 minutes late, Kathy was there, US Color Guards was there, waiting for us. No Urn from the Funeral home was there, no Dads ashes. I was freaking out. Kathy was calm, talking about what a wonderful ceremony it will be and did everything to put me at ease. The funeral home had a new employee, went to the wrong cemetery, finally arrived, military guards presented the flag, pastor said the final rights, and then Kathy had great words of the meaning of doves release, references to bible scriptures and taught my Mother how to hold a dove. The Look on my 84yr old Mother face was Priceless on the release and her Smile. Then Kathy and released the remaining 9 doves and it was a sight to see. Afterwards my brothers were so impressed they were asking how these doves worked. Kathy gave them the 411 of homing doves, that she's been in the business for 30+ years, been invited to not just the individual ceremonies but locally for full US military ceremonies. I know this is Kathy's only second review on Yelp, #1 receive over 1yr ago had a poor experience. Maybe communication, maybe annoyance for pay a surcharge. I can't say. I paid cash, no issues This is Kathy's second review which should put her at three Stars. I place her at five.... Use her service. I just wish I had photos of the ceremony and how brilliant it was to post on this review.
