Funeral Services And Cemeteries near Belmont

“Neptune Society did a great job of communicating quickly and accurately during difficult times. The Belmont staff was friendly, compassionate and diligent in carrying out my loved one’s last wishes. I would highly recommend Neptune Society’s cremation services.“

“The entire staff from the beginning and throughout were kind and supportive. We never felt worried about the arrangements and everything went smoothly. We would never have been able to get through without the comfort and direction of John Crosby, Joanna, Herb, Gus and Enrique from their independent contractor Loved ones. Sneider & Sullivan & O’Connell’s Funeral Home was welcoming and the Chapel was perfect for our service. Thank you for coping with our grief with grace.“

“I highly recommend Cypress Lawn Funeral home! We used their services for the passing of a very dear family member and we approached them while still in tears. They were so professional and respectful, comforting in being task oriented but careful not to rush us in our decisions. We chose some options but even so, when they told me they would take care of everything and I didn't quite realize until closer to the time just how many things I never would have thought of to request and I found out they already had it planned! They were carefule to make no assumptions that might make us uncomfortable, using inclusive language, and using excellent/professional communication skills. At a time when one doesn't even realize how emotional one is on any particular day, they are calm and can see through the chaos, organzing things quietly for you and allowing you to be in charge if you want to be. They were patient through the process and allowed me to take my time in making decisions, constantly offering to help. It's amazing how specific the options they provide can be and still how customizable/personalizable their services are. They have a special flower room accessible to flower shops for delivery after hours. They handled all of the legal things with no effort from us; they just know how to do it all. They were present during the services and at my elbow if needed but in the shadows if not needed. They have a high professional skill level in making your pictures into a beautiful slideshow. For the same cost there is a reception room. I can say that because of the size of our family and the multi-pronged cultures that we embody, we needed the flexibility they give and we turned the facility into quite a unique event in honor of our loved one who passed, bringing in our own multi-pronged cultures including four generations, assisting in guiding those with accessibility issues, and tolerating lively children, and we were surprised how the facility served well in the face of all of this! I highly recommend them for any sort of handling of your loved one's passing.“

“Losing a loved one is never easy, and during one of the most difficult moments of our lives—losing a close friend—Menlo Park Funeral Home and Cremation Services exceeded every expectation. From the moment we reached out, Barry showed a level of empathy, professionalism, and dedication that truly sets this funeral home apart.

What made this experience truly remarkable was Barry’s unwavering support throughout the entire process of arranging our friend’s body shipment to Europe. This included navigating international paperwork, handling insurance, and working directly with the European consulate—all while keeping us informed every step of the way.

Grieving makes even basic tasks feel impossible, but Barry made sure every document was in order, every signature collected on time, and every communication handled with care. He was a light in the darkness, helping us move forward when things felt too overwhelming.

If you're looking for a funeral home in Menlo Park that combines expertise with genuine human kindness, I cannot recommend Barry and his team enough. Whether you need local cremation services, funeral arrangements, or international repatriation of remains, this is the place to turn to.

As painful as loss is, Barry made sure we never felt alone.“

“What a great service Terry provides. I’d held onto this plot that had been passed down to me not knowing what to do with it or how to get rid of it. Once I found this company, they made it so easy and I made a lovely little profit. Most of all, someone else is very happy to have a plot they want. Great service!“

“Located in a rural area four miles south of Half Moon Bay, Purissima was one of the earliest settlements on the San Mateo County coast. Spanish soldiers founded the little hamlet before 1820 as an outpost for Mission Dolores in San Francisco, about twenty-five miles to the north. The lush land, ample water, and sunny climate supported the farms that supplied the mission with food. The town grew and, from the late 1840's, after the American annexation of California, continued to prosper as an agricultural community for many years. The first lumber mill was built here and the area noted for its climate and beautiful scenery eventually became somewhat of a resort for pleasure seekers. As competition from the nearby town of San Benito (now Half Moon Bay) increased, the once-thriving village of Purissima began to fade into obscurity. The town's structures were destroyed by winter storms or salvaged for building materials used elsewhere on the coast. Today, nothing remains of the town except the foundation of a one-story schoolhouse and this old overgrown pioneer cemetery marked by crumbling tombstones with nearly unreadable epitaphs.“

“Chapel of the Highlands provided a thoughtful and well-organized service for my late grandmother. Communication was always clear, and their team ensured her wishes were honored with respect. I also appreciated their willingness to address concerns and make things right, which reflected genuine care for the families they serve. Paul and his team handled everything smoothly, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to others in the future.“

“They are compassionate and patient. Al Stanley, Funeral Director, knows the answer to every question. We were treated with the utmost kindness. Highly recommend.“

“My whole entire family have used Jones Mortuary services for over 30 years and they are always very professional and very kind in our time of Grief???“

“100% recommend this place this place is so beautiful alot of trees you could see the ocean and alot of wild animals but overall its clean and organized. Working with Nena Ortiz I know that God had sent her to work with my family, she explained every concern. She took time to talk to us even when she wasn't in the office working. Also if you need someone that speaks Spanish she's the one to go for.“
