Funeral Services And Cemeteries near Burlingame

“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.“

“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.“

“Losing my husband was one of the most painful experiences of my life, but I’m deeply grateful to Jack and to All County Cremation Service for the kindness, respect, and compassion they showed to me and my family. I truly believe God placed them in our path to help us through this season of grief. Thank you for being His instruments of peace and compassion. I highly recommend All County Cremation Service.“

“Chose Colma. Living outside the area, I wasn't sure what funeral home to choose for my brother's direct cremation. I am so glad I chose Colma Cremation and Funeral Services. The prices were reasonable, and the service from Hiroko and Reuben was extraordinary. Hiroko's kind messages were so lovely and reassuring during a difficult time. I appreciated the always daily messages to keep me updated. Choose Colma, you will be so pleased you did. All arrangements for my veteran brother were handled professionally and appropriately. Thank you Hiroko and Reuben!“

“Izzy, Carlos and Stephen was amazing and made the entire process and experience seamless.. They are a great team and a blessing“

“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.“

“We are so pleased with the help Steve gave us in regards to my mother & her first husband ‘s head stone restoration. It was a very old and beautiful head stone that we needed to add my mother’s name on. We were going to replace it and Steve suggested restoration as the old headstones are made so much better . Plus the cost was a lot less. We are very grateful for Steve’s help .“

“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!“

“They were absolutely wonderful during such a difficult time for our family. Their care, compassion, and support made everything a little easier, and we are so grateful for the kindness they showed us when we needed it most.“

“Owner did lovely job working with us and adjusting design multiple times until everyone was happy. Actual headstone turned out beautiful and they delivered it. Pierre was great and made the process as easy as possible.“

“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.“

“On this coming 4th of July, I reflect on how much has been lost and gained in the United States, and so I sit and reflect at the places that mean so much to me.

Coming from a military family, I hope the lessons learned make us pause and think.
So here we stand, my wife and I in the middle of the golden gate national cemetery.

Here we visit, and we ponder the course of this nation. We visit what I call the "brass ridge". Here there are so many generals and admirals buried here, but not forgotten. As we walk through the greens and we stop at the tombstones of prominent and historical figures, I hear in the wind honor me, but remember the soldiers, sailors, Marines, Air force veterans that surround me and served this nation also. These were our men under our command.

Like Gettysburg, Manassas, Shiloh, the Alamo, Arlington and the national cemetery of the Pacific that I have visited. I remember with awe and wonder.

Another solemn place to visit. Moving to the soul and conscience.“

“Golden Hill Monument was recommended to me so I made an appointment to meet with Henry. I found that he was very knowledgeable on the Chinese characters etched on the gravestone when my father passed away many years ago. He made suggestions and we took the e one that made it consistent with the characters etched for my father. We were also very satisfied with remaining services performed on the reconditioning of the gravestone. Happy with the work performed and would highly recommend them!“

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

“Armando helped my son immediately with the funeral services. My son wanted a beachfront view driving away from Chapel By the Sea to drive to the burial site. My son's vision came true as expected. Not only was it angelic but Armando let us put our own decorations whatever we needed done Armando said yes to it. Armando was quick, efficient and at the same time consoling. Chapel by the Sea is a place where you can have an intimate, special and have a professional experience for your loss loved ones to view and have services just the way you want it done. Thank you Armando. Patricia Corsetti“

“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.“

“Annette, Al, and staff are wonderful. So caring and supportive. They have helped with several family member burials over the years. They guided us through each step of the process and we were so thankful for their assistance and care.“

“I called today to get information on a loved one that we believed to be buried here. I felt very nervous and awkward on the call, I'm sure I sounded like a complete nut, anxiety at it's finest. However, the woman I spoke to on the phone was very polite and reassuring. She answered all my questions and put me at ease right away. She gave me help and suggestions right away. I ended the phone call with a happy heart and a calm feeling.“

“My family members are all at Woodlawn. Going back almost 40 years, staff at Woodlawn have taken care of us.“

“My brother passed away recently and we picked Duggar’s-Serra and I’m so beyond grateful. The
Prices and packages for the services are reasonable and the customer service was immaculate. They helped us and took care of my brother and handled it with love and care. We had a viewing and those who helped my brother with the viewing did an amazing job. I cannot
Express my gratitude to the funeral director and those who helped with my brothers service. Thank you from the bottom of my heart“

“This Cemetery is located in San Mateo. It is a Japanese Cemetery consisting of some of the japanese population in the bay area. The cemetery opened in 1901 due to a law change in the area. Most of the cemetery is dedicated to newer burials, however, there is an older section of the cemetery that is mainly older, historical headstones. My great-grandaunt is buried here and I went to visit this cemetery in early February. It is a very beautiful and small cemetery in the heart of Colma!“

“We had my mom's funeral services here in 2023. I as well as my guests were very impressed with the quality of the funeral service. They even provided snacks and drinks for our guests while they were waiting for the service to begin. All of the funeral staff members that assisted with the service were attentive to our needs. We chose the full package which was well worth the price for how well the service was executed. My guests said it was unlike any funeral they've attended. Thank you Golden Hill Funeral Home.“

“Just placed my 91-year old mother in her space yesterday, 8/19/21, and our family was very happy with the service we received here. The grounds crew showed us a lot of compassion and performed the lowering of my Mom's casket with great care. They made good eye contact with us and treated us with great respect. As a recent retiree of both the cemetery and funeral home business, I always say that the cemetery grounds crew are typically the most caring of the employees.I had purchased my family's six double-depth spaces back in 1/12/1980and, as with home prices, cemetery prices have really gone up! Luckily, I made the right decision over 41-years ago to get these spaces. My mother is the first to use one of our spaces.This is a nice cemetery. There are some in the area that may have greener grass and there are some with lesser green grass. However the service (both in the office and on the grounds) is comparable, if not better, with the so-called higher end locations. I am happy with Greenlawn.“
