“I needed to find a venue to hold my mom's memorial service and I am so glad I found Alameda Funeral & Cremation Services. Harry and Rosa were very helpful and accomodating to all of our needs. The home is beautiful and the memorial room is very spacious. There is ample parking in the back and the home had everything we needed including a dining room for refreshments and a sitting area outside of the memorial room. The home was exceptionally clean and Harry made himself available to us if we needed anything. I highly recommend this place!“

“Losing our father was sudden and incredibly painful, and from the moment we walked into Santos Robinson Mortuary, we were treated like family and not just clients. In one of the hardest moments of our lives, they took so much weight off our shoulders with genuine care, patience, and compassion.

Kevin went above and beyond every step of the way. He explained everything clearly, never rushed us, and made sure our family felt supported throughout the entire process. Nothing felt transactional. Everything felt personal, respectful, and deeply family oriented.

You can truly tell this mortuary is built on love, integrity, and service. They handled everything with professionalism while still making us feel seen and cared for as people. That balance is rare, and it meant everything to our family.

If you are looking for a place that will take care of you during an unimaginably difficult time, this is it. We are beyond grateful for Santos Robinson Mortuary and for Kevin. Highly recommend.“

“Wonderful attention to detail and a great help with the Chinese characters. We have been coming to Lotus Memorials for 2 generations, since 1994 when my grandfather passed away and then a few years later my grandmother. We returned 30 years later for my dad and then my mom, and Jennifer still had the order notes from the 90s which was so helpful! A very warm experience!“

“San Lorenzo Pioneer Cemetery is viewable on a driveby on Hesperian Blvd., a very busy street. i was surprised to see a cemetery here. it's been a long time judging by the dullness of the monuments, granites. i never see any activity. there's little green grass visible within the perimeters. the cemetery is closed seemingly at all hours. parking isn't readily available if one wants to visit. i have no interest to do so. one can see within by standing on the perimeter. there is a sign posted that the cemetery will be renovated. the sign is a few years old.“
