Celebrating Life & Heritage for All Faiths and Nationalities

My family recently had a graveside service at The Italian Cemetery. The main service was in the El Camino chapel with final blessings across the street at the columbarium. This was my first time planing a funeral and I needed a lot of help. I live in another county so and had to make decision by phone and email. I worked with Joanna in the early stages to find a site that would be close to an older family plot. She took photos and emailed them to me so I could see the locations, and helped me to select a niche. She was very patient and kindly answered my many questions via email, sent photos of the niche and chapel so we could see the locations, and sent maps of the cemetery layout. She coached me days before the service so I‘d know what to expect. This event was 3.5 months in planning, from purchase of the cremation niche site, to the day of the event. Throughout this time the office staff were very kind, professional and went out of their way to make sure we had what we needed for our special service. The day of the service I needed help in finding the cemetery and called the office. Steve was kind enough to stay on the phone with me until I arrived. Troy helped our family with the service, made sure we had chairs set up outside for the final blessings and stayed with us until the event was finished. When we were clearing out of the chapel an item was left behind. Troy kindly emailed me to let me know they had the item at the office and would hold it for us. Everyone we interacted with at The Italian Cemetery made us feel at ease and comfortable. I gladly give them highest ratings. Big thanks to Joanna,Troy, and Steve for making this a happy event for all of us. I trust that our loved one’s grave will receive excellent care.

You were so easy to work with, and very accommodating. You were a great help in coordinating with the mortuary and me, on behalf of my elderly client, whose son died unexpectedly. Thank you very much.

Everything went smoothly and Italian Cemetery ensured upmost respect with our loved one’s final resting place.

Really responsive and professional. I was looking for information on some family members who are in interned at the Italian cemetery and working with staff was easy.

Steve was wonderful. From the first visit he explained how the service would be handled and showed us around the Chapel. Made us feel at ease, by answering all of our questions and making suggestions. At the service he had everything set up and even assisted the family with the memorial table and picture boards. His staff was respectful during the interment. Unfortunately this isn’t the first service we had at their beautiful Chapel. My family would recommend The Italian Cemetery to other families.
