Kate is the most informed person I’ve met for this type of need. She answered all my questions and helped me to the absolute best of her ability. Definitely recommend her and this establishment.

Sadly our beloved mother passed away in May, our family held a beautiful burial service at Forest Lawn East Cemetery. Throughout the process, Patrick was compassionate, professional, and incredibly helpful.
He took the time to walk us through the many options for a memorial bench honoring both of our parents, offering thoughtful suggestions and making the entire experience much easier during a difficult time. We truly appreciate his kindness, patience, and attention to detail, and we look forward to seeing the bench installed as a lasting tribute to our parents.
Thank you, Patrick, for your exceptional care and support.

My husband and I recently met with Patrick C. to discuss our final cremation arrangements, and we truly appreciated the time he spent with us. He was knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about helping families make informed decisions.
Patrick explained aspects of cremation that we didn’t know and answered every question we had with clarity and compassion.
Because of the positive experience we had, I have also shared Patrick’s information with our nurses and social workers at Cardinal Hospice Care as a trusted resource for the families we serve. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for guidance with end-of-life planning.
