My friend called C P Bannon earlier this week to find out when we could come in to pay our respect and say our good byes. A woman by the name of Mrs. Taylor told my friend via phone call that the viewing would be Thursday (today) from 12 PM to 4 PM. When we arrived at the mortuary slightly before 3 PM, we were told by Mrs. Taylor that the body has been transported to the Shiloh Baptist Church in Vacaville for the funeral services. Yes, my friend and I were highly disappointed that we couldn't say our good byes. Nobody from the mortuary notified my friend that this transportation of Mrs. Peters has occurred. This was a lack of communication on the part of the mortuary. Mrs. Taylor suggested to go on their website to leave a message of condolences to my classmate's family. Sad to say I could not find this mortuary on a website, even though I did a Google search. I did a Google search again. I found the website under another name, not C P Bannon. I stand corrected.

Worth a visit to pay respects to the dearly departed, many taken from us much too soon.read more

Recently here with flowers to visit my mom's grave site. To my surprise, her headstone wasn't there so I was unsure if I was the right space. Went to front office to inquire, was told they had no record of a headstone being ordered. They had the grounds keeper take me to the site--it was the unmarked space I was at.

Accompanying me was my daughter and one of my high school classmates, Dora, to discuss what type of service I wanted for my husband with Paul. Paul is an excellent funeral director who is not only helpful but also compassionate, empathetic and so understanding. I couldn't ask for anybody than him to handle the arrangement. I find he is approachable and personable; truly a great listener. This chapel is located on the corner of High and Walnut Streets. There is a parking lot for the attendees of a funeral.

Paul is very direct, but also super knowledgeable and will do everything he can to make this process as smooth as possible. He's familiar with all the traditional funerals, even more than us, so we trusted him with a lot. He delivered and made sure we had everything we needed. Burying loved ones has to be the most challenging and agonizing part of anyone's life & having a reputable chapel like Colonial makes it a little less stressful. Everything was perfect. They did a wonderful job with the dressing, makeup, floral set up and all. I appreciate Colonial. The only thing I would say is the funeral home is dated, but it's been around for ages.

I visited my brother's grave today, and the experience was extremely disappointing. When I arrived,…read moreI was told that they could not locate his gravesite. I remembered the general vicinity where he was buried but not the exact location, so I had to search for and locate his grave myself and then inform the office. What made the experience even more upsetting was the interaction with the front office staff member. I was questioned about my own brother's name in a manner that felt dismissive and as though I did not know who I was there to visit. The lack of compassion and sensitivity was especially disappointing given the nature of the visit. Rollin Hills, please do better when it comes to maintaining accurate records and providing compassionate customer service. Visiting a cemetery is not a casual experience,it is often a time of grief, remembrance, and sorrow. Families deserve to be treated with patience, understanding, and respect during these difficult moments.
