I only have one word to describe Sunset Funeral Care, and that word is awesome. My dad passed away at Redlands Community Hospital in the latter part of June 2022. My dad had no pre-arranged plans, no life insurance, nothing. My mom and I were left having to scramble to find a funeral place that performed direct cremation with an affordable price that wouldn't break our bank, and leave us in financial stress. The first place I went to was a popular place here in town. The Funeral Director there was nice and honest, and sat down with me and detailed the process. He honestly told me they were a larger funeral home, and that their prices were mid-range higher than other places. I would seriously give them 5 star rating just for that honesty. The guy I talked to at the second funeral home I visited seemed a little rude, and stood out in the hall talking to me, telling me how much they charged, and then added a bunch of extra fees on top of that total that were not part of the package. The total ended up being a little cheaper than the first but was still on the high side. The third funeral home I visited was Sunset Funeral Care. I noticed this funeral home was smaller and quaint, and quickly recognized that this was a small family owned and operated business. Now, there is a special place in my heart for small businesses, because my family and I actually used to own a couple small businesses in the mall right across the street from where this funeral home is. My dad had his optical business in this mall for almost 40 years before it closed. The Lady I met at Sunset Funeral Care was really nice and compassionate, and went through all the details of the process and the pricing. They had a cremation package and one price, no bunch of hidden little extras fees. I told her what I was looking for, and was told that they would help my mom and I make the whole process as easy, and the least stressful as possible. The lady there took down my name number to give to Jenny the funeral home director. Jenny called me a little later that afternoon, and was really nice, and I felt really comfortable talking to her. Talking to Jenny on the phone was like talking to a close family friend which was a real plus. She answered all my questions I had, and reassured me that they were there to help my mom and I make this process the least stressful as possible. She even expressed her condolences to my mom over the phone on the loss of my dad, which was really awesome. It didn't take us long at all after the call to decide to go with Sunset Funeral Care. In this situation the third times the charm. Jenny and her team were really awesome, and they made the whole process very easy, and the least stressful as promised. Jenny and her team's professional, caring, compassionate, affordable service A+++++ Keeping their promises that's a bonus A+++++ Trust me when I say this, if you are in a situation like my mom and I were in, scrambling to look for an affordable, professional, compassionate Funeral care services for a loved one, Sunset Funeral Care is the place you should call first, and the only call you'll need to make. ☺️
I want to thank the staff of Sunset Funeral Care in Redlands, Ca and staff of Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church for all the help and superior coordination of the Funeral for my Mom. The visitation, Mass and burial exceed all of our expectations 100 fold. The personal attention to every detail was just amazing. I can’t say enough about how up lifting every part of services made me and my Family feel. A simple “Thank You” seems so inadequate.
