Funeral Services & Cemeteries in Long Beach

“Thank you to Captain Mario for a wonderful burial at sea for my Mom & Dad. It was a beautiful day and the service was very thoughtful and heartfelt. We couldn't of asked for a more perfect way to say our final goodbye. I would highly recommend Beyond the Sea. We were very pleased!“

“I highly recommend this family-owned business. From start to finish, the entire staff showed genuine compassion and empathy during such a difficult time. They cared for my father as if he were their own family member, which brought our family great comfort.

I am truly grateful to the McKenzie Mortuary team for their kindness and professionalism. A special thank you to Bridget for her thoughtful assistance and clear, consistent communication throughout the process.“

“Had a pre-planning appointment with Francisco Salgado for my Mother in law. Very down to earth and made the meeting go by smoothly. We will be returning to plan for my husband and I. Thanks Francisco !“

“If you have a loved one that passes at the VA in Long Beach, I highly recommend you listen to the VA and contact Destiny Funeral Home! There’s a reason they are so highly recommended!

My father had no plans in place prior to his unexpected passing, other than he wanted to be buried with his fellow serviceman, and everyone at Destiny made the process painless and easy. Something much needed three days after his passing. Every single person we talked to was so kind and helpful. And the prices were much more affordable than we expected. My mother was so happy with them she plans to go back for her own arrangements.

Making arrangements for my dad was something I absolutely dreaded and they helped us every step of the way. I cannot recommend them highly enough! Thank you so much Destiny!“

“Roger assisted me and my family with my mother’s memorial stone. He was very nice and very responsive and understanding to what we would like. 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“

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! ✨"“
