“Annie provided exceptional customer service when our family was looking to purchase a specific urn for a loved one. It took about a week from order to delivery for our customized urn to show up which is great given the time sensitivity of the matter. Annie walked us through the whole process and went above and beyond to draw up templates with various fonts and designs so that we can preview the final product. Awesome work, highly recommend!“

“I lost my dad on Father’s Day. So many things came to mind, how am I going to start this process and where do I even begin. I have never had to go through this before. Thankfully, we found this funeral home by a google search. Tatiana was the most amazing and kind human being throughout this entire process. She explained all the details, all the preparations that had to be done and all the steps in between. She would always ask my sister and I if we needed anything or always ask if we are okay, which in a time like this means a lot. She was always available when I had questions. The service was beautiful, my family and friends loved it. I can’t thank Tatiana enough for helping me through such a difficult time. And everyone else at the funeral home, they were always so kind and helpful. Thank you all again.“

“My family lost my dad unexpectedly a month ago. I called Darling & Fischer who we’ve used for over 30 years. My dad lived in Sacramento but we knew would be buried in San Jose, without hesitation they made arrangements to pick him up with a smooth transfer. Petra from the very beginning was so kind, helpful & made this experience so easy for me given the circumstances. This is why our family continuously returns to them.“

“San Jose Funeral Services has been a blessing to our family as we navigated a loved one’s passing. From start to end, they listened, supported, and guided us. They were professional, dependable, and with good communication. Thank you Kim and Eric especially for constantly checking in and ensuring our needs were always met. We couldn’t have asked for anything more.“

“California Cremation Society had an amazing team to help us at a terrible time.

The woman who answered the phone was kind and understanding and guided us through what were difficult questions to answer at the time.

The two gentlemen who arrived exactly on time were incredibly patient and respectful. We asked them to wait for two people to arrive so they could say their last goodbyes. They didn't bat an eye, and gave us our space with no pressure to move things along.

Thank you again for providing excellent service under terrible circumstances.“

“To all at Spangler especially Brian, I want to thank you for all you did for me as well my brother when my aunt passed on April 1,2026.
You went above and beyond words of gratitude are not enough.
A Death of a loved one is not easy and yet your compassion, empathy will never be forgotten. Being there at Forest Lawn in Glendale was like having my close friend near by. The close attention given to my aunt that too never will be forgotten. The casket was truly beautiful and the bronze rose sits next to my mom's.
Spangler Mortuary took much stress off of us and you treated us with much respect and dignity.
Yes,to this day I truly want the Truth as to what really caused my aunt's passing someone knows and I hope to find answers. Yes I told the Hospice nurse that I wanted an autopsy when my aunt was at the end and all the nurse did was look at me and when my aunt did pass I was asked are you really sure you still want and autopsy (shaking her head) I regret saying no. The doctors with Hospice cause damage as well as Good Samaritan Hospital the discomfort and pain they all inflicted was cruel and uncalled for. Instead of being honest with me the avoided the issue at hand.
The only consolation was that I had Brian who understood how I felt and even if it would be expensive in doing so at least I would have had real closure.
It has been a month and family members are still questioning who messed up why no one mentioned that horrible word it had Metastasis( that was never once told to me). My poor aunt died a gruesome most painful death I have ever seen and for her age of 94 she knew something was horribly wrong.
Death comes in all ages it is not just a number.
The medical professionals would often say what do you expect for her age? Seriously? Yes several physicians have said those words and i literally wanted to punch them the coldness was atrocious.
Just wait until it is your time.
Thank you again Brian and family..I highly recommend this Mortuary to all who need compassionate care when that dreadful day comes to make decisions. SPANGLER MADE IT EASY.
All the best,
Donna“

“Exceptional Funeral Services for My Father

Losing my father was one of the hardest moments of our lives, and I had no idea where to begin with arranging his funeral. From the very first call, the team made the entire process so much easier and more manageable for us. They guided us step-by-step—from helping us schedule meetings, to clearly explaining what needed to be done depending on the practices we chose (Catholic or Christian), to handling all of the important documents on our behalf.

Their advice was always practical, honest, and rooted in experience. One thing that gave us tremendous peace of mind was knowing that my father would be cared for with dignity during his full-body repatriation to the Philippines. They ensured that he would arrive safely and properly prepared, and we are forever grateful for that reassurance.

A special thank you goes to Tom Beddingfield, who was a true anchor through all of this. His patience, professionalism, and steady guidance made an overwhelming process so much easier for our family. I cannot thank him enough for a job exceptionally well done.

We also want to highlight the incredible work of Dean DeBruin, who created my dad’s video tribute. This was no simple task—my father had a massive and disorganized collection of photos totaling 16 gigabytes. Dean was unbelievably patient, kind, and accommodating through every revision and request. The final tribute was heartfelt, beautiful, and truly captured who my dad was.

The coordination between the funeral team and the church was seamless. The staff communicated directly with the parish where we planned to hold the viewing and funeral mass, which removed so much stress from us. We are especially thankful to Fr. Francis, who reached out personally to learn about my father’s life so he could honor him meaningfully during the service.

We would also like to express our deep appreciation to Noriel P. Adricula, the incredible singer and pianist who provided the music for the funeral mass. His performance was heartfelt and beautiful—exactly what my father deserved.

All who attended my father’s funeral were in awe of how beautifully everything was managed—professional, heartfelt, and all at a very reasonable price. We felt supported every step of the way, and we are truly grateful for the care this team provided to our father and to us.“

“Searching for a casket is not something ANYONE wants to do. Faced with the impossible task, we set out after not being comfortable with the prices and zero lack of selection at the funeral home. Picking something so personal from a photo in a binder did mot set well for my MIL. Bruce, who I found on Yelp responded immediately to my query for an appointment. He was patient, informative and willing to spend the time walking us through the process. His prices are super competitive , selection wide and he delivers on all his promises. While I hope to never have to patronize the Casket Outlet again I will recommend it highly to anyone who finds the need.“

“I wanted to say thank you to Drew and his associates for helping me during this difficult time for my family and I. He is so helpful, always keeping me updated on my uncles aftercare. Thank you 1,000,000 times. Happy Holidays to you all.“

“I had a family loss ? and the consulate recommended this funeral home to me. It is very good and I recommend an excellent service. He treated us with a lot of empathy for our loss and was always very attentive and also helped me in Mexico to find another funeral home that was cheaper than the one I had found.“

“Vince made a difficult situation more bearable and comforting. Not everyone has that gift. Thank you Vince and to your team.“

“My nephew my nana my dad and my papa are all buried here and recently from my nephew they have been so accommodating when we come to visit on his birthday. Exceptional and private“

“We had a family member pass away, and we were looking for a place that could help us with a simple direct cremation (no formal funeral services) and guidance for a veteran, and this place exceeded expectations. I called first thing in the morning on a Monday, and they were able to accommodate us right away that morning (they recommended calling to make an appointment). We met with Cornell, who was very experienced and helpful, guiding our family members, especially the widow, with the options and what to expect. Cornell also explained how the VA benefits process worked. We were told that they expected we could pick up the cremated remains and death certificates in about 3 weeks. They were ready in a week and a half. I also found the pricing to be very reasonable when comparing options in the area for direct cremation.“

“Alta Mesa Memorial Park is a peaceful and beautifully maintained place that offers a quiet setting for reflection and remembrance. The grounds are clean, landscaped with care, and provide a calm atmosphere for visitors. It's a respectful and serene space that honors loved ones with dignity.“

“Ger was so helpful and patient, helping me and my sisters design our parents headstone. It came out perfect! I highly recommend Forever Etched, this family business work with their hearts and souls ♥️“

“Horacio B. placed flowers in urns that were too high up for me to reach. He was so friendly, nice and considerate. It was a pleasure to meet him!“

“Aileene and the staff did a wonderful job during a very difficult time for our family. Our dad had bought a plot next to our mom decades ago and we had no paperwork to show for it. But it was absolutely no problem for the GOH team and the entire process was smooth, caring and professional. It doesn't hurt that the property is beautiful and very well maintained.“
