Funeral Services & Cemeteries near Carson

“I have several family members buried here, and have been coming to Lincoln to visit since I was a young boy. A bit nostalgic as a result. However, as the years pass, I've witnessed this cemetery regress a bit. THE GOOD: The lawn care maintenance is actually quite good. I've never noticed it being overrun or brown due to lack of water from the sprinklers. The mausoleum has been so-so maintained, yet it's old as dirt. I give that a pass. Also, I'll always be appreciative of the grave diggers that disinterred my grandfather's casket with great care two years ago to accommodate my grandmother's casket. Seeing pictures of a sixty year old casket in great condition on the day of her burial really meant something special to me. THE BAD: The office seems to be perpetually closed. It's a small office, but gracious, doesn't anyone pick up a phone or return voicemails these days? Must be nice to have five hour lunch breaks while keeping the cemetery open for nine hours. In addition, the exterior signage for the cemetery could be enhanced, as it is hard to find in bad weather. While the rest of the cemetery is so-so, it just conveys that it is old, and in need of higher level maintenance. It's okay now, yet could be so much better.“

“I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible care and compassion Leslie Saldivar showed my family during my cousin Frank’s service at Lighthouse Memorials & Receptions – McMillan and McCormick Center. From the very beginning, Leslie went above and beyond to make one of the hardest times of our lives as comforting and meaningful as possible.

She was so sweet, patient, and compassionate—truly a light in a very dark moment for us. Leslie handled everything with such grace, professionalism, and kindness that words can hardly explain how thankful we are for her. She made the service not only smooth and stress-free, but also a beautiful and memorable experience that honored Frank in the best way possible.

While no one ever wants to find themselves in this position, when that time comes again for our family, we know without a doubt we’ll return here, because of Leslie. She is absolutely amazing at what she does, and we will forever speak so highly of her and the comfort she gave us. Thank you, Leslie, from the bottom of our hearts.“

“They took care of my mother funeral in 2018 they did an excellent job,so grateful for the staff over there ,especially Ms Denise.they treat you like family over their,thank you.“

“During one of the most difficult times in our lives, Christian and the entire team at Allen-English & Estrada provided a level of compassion, professionalism, and care that exceeded every expectation. From the very first conversation, they treated our family with dignity, respect, and genuine kindness.

Christian went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was handled flawlessly. His patience, understanding, and willingness to guide us through each step made an incredibly emotional process much easier to navigate. It was clear that he wasn’t simply doing a job he truly cared about honoring our loved one and supporting our family.

The facility was beautiful, peaceful, and welcoming, creating a comforting environment for family and friends to gather, remember, and celebrate a life well lived. Every service was handled with professionalism, grace, and attention to detail.

If you are looking for a funeral home that will treat your loved one with the utmost respect and your family with genuine compassion, I wholeheartedly recommend Allen-English & Estrada. Christian and his team turned a heartbreaking experience into a beautiful and meaningful tribute that our family will never forget.

Thank you, Christian, for your kindness, dedication, and exceptional service. You made a lasting difference in our lives when we needed it most. ❤️“

If you're in the mood for some spine-tingling, hair-raising fun in broad daylight, Sunnyside Cemetery in Long Beach is the place to be! Nestled between the palm trees and sunshine, this cemetery has just enough eerie vibes to give you chills while you soak up that coastal warmth.

Beware the giggling ghost of Mr. Tiddles, the old cemetery cat, who loves to sneak up on unsuspecting visitors and brush against their legs (or is it just the wind? ?). And don’t even get me started on the mysterious whistling—sure, it could be the ocean breeze, but legend has it, it's Old Man Jenkins, trying to finish a tune he started in 1912! ?

Tombstones here tilt at weird angles as if they've had one too many ghostly cocktails, and if you're lucky (or unlucky), you might just hear the infamous 'tap-tap-tap' of the long-lost gardener's shovel. ? Is he still working? No one knows.

Sunnyside Cemetery: where the spirits are friendly, the sunshine is strong, and the only thing haunting you is whether you’ll get sand in your shoes. 5 out of 5 spooky tombstones! ✨"“

“My first time on a boat and it was amazing ! The crew and thw captain all were very friendly and compassionate. Thank you once again for the great boat ride. Will recommended to more friends and family.“

“I have not paid this organization a dime, but live out of state and am dealing with my brother’s remains. Mr. Midgely is not only prompt, but kind, thoughtful and caring. This kind of business deserves 10 stars. So far, he has been the best mortuary director I’ve ever dealt with and I do have some experience. Highly recommend !“

“Marco had taken time out of his day to help clean my Grandfathers tombstone. It was his birthday and really meant a lot to me and the family.

“My experience with this business was phenomenal. Cremation process is explained in detail. Pricing is quite inexpensive and you have a selection of pricing packages. If you have a terminally I'll loved one or friend the cost is much more inexpensive. You may use your own Urn ⚱️. I will definitely recommend this company.“

It turned out beautiful and felt that it would do my mother justice to have such a beautiful stone. For anyone going through the process of laying a loved one to rest, Roger makes this portion easy and one less thing to worry about. Very grateful“

“Our family is deeply grateful to Destiny Funeral Home, and especially to Steve, the General Manager. From the very beginning to the conclusion of our father's services, Steve went above and beyond to accommodate our family and thoughtfully guided us through every part of the service planning process.

We were honoring our father’s traditional Buddhist services, and to our surprise, Steve demonstrated knowledge and familiarity with specific Buddhist traditions than we did. He understood the cultural needs, the particulars of rituals we honored, and ensured everything was done respectfully.

The entire staff was also outstanding. During the funeral service, Cindy, Kevin, and Alex were incredible, professional, attentive, and compassionate. They ensured everything was executed seamlessly and to our complete satisfaction.

Above all else, Steve's empathy and patience truly stood out. He answered every question we had without hesitation or annoyance and made us feel supported during one of the most difficult times in our lives. The level of care, compassion, and service he provided to our family was truly exceptional. We cannot recommend Destiny Funeral Home enough.“

“We thank Rose Hills for recommending Beyond the Sea to help honor my dad’s wishes of having his ashes scattered in the ocean. Captain Tony and his team (Marcus?) were helpful in guiding us to create a wonderful program for our guests and my dad. On the day, their instructions were clear. The boat was comfortable for our 32 guests. What made it special was having each of our guests hold white birds and let them go after wishing my dad a Happy Father’s Day. Gotta thank Alex - the bird handler - for that. I highly recommend this company for a special tribute to your loved one.“

“Planning the services for a loved one is a very difficult task. We were very fortunate to work along with Leslie Saldivar. She was very compassionate and committed to ensure that everything went smoothly and looked as beautiful as possible. She was patient and understanding as we had to make last minute changes. She helped us communicate with the cemetery and church so we wouldn’t have to worry about it. I would recommend this place to anyone in search for a mortuary that will treat you like family. I am beyond grateful for the care of our loved one.“

“Natural Grace was truly wonderful during one of the most difficult times in our lives. Shari is absolutely delightful. She is warm, genuine, and compassionate, without any of the formality or stiffness often associated with funeral homes. From our first interaction, she made us feel comfortable, cared for, and supported.

Shari and her staff treated both our family and our sister with extraordinary gentleness, compassion, and dignity. Every detail was handled with kindness and grace, living up to the name Natural Grace in every way.
