Feedback From Our Families

Dan Ginquinni

Very kind and understanding staff. Impeccable grounds and everything layed out for easy access. Most of my Family, at least The Italian side are placed here, but I Love that it is still multi-ethnicity.

Lauren Barranti

I love the Italian cemetary and the history and culture make it so rich and interesting not to mention the comfort I feel when visiting. Troy helped us with our arrangements and he is stellar.

I contacted The Italian Cemetery today for information on an ancestor. Troy Milan was a wealth of information about burial cards and next steps in finding additional leads through the Colma Historical Society. He provided telephone number, email and website information. He even walked to my ancestor's gravesite to see if there was a monument with dates, etc. He went above and beyond to help me. I really appreciated his time and extra effort. Donna Montalbano

I was visiting San Francisco from Boston. While in SF, I was searching for the burial site of my distant relatives. I emailed the Italian Cemetery office and requested information. Troy immediately responded with the location of the grave along with photos. When we arrived at the cemetery, we had difficulty finding the grave, so we called the office, and the woman that answered the telephone was so accommodating and guided us to the burial site. I am extremely grateful for their patience and kindness. Not something we are accustomed to in Boston!! Thank you Troy, and your colleagues in the office!
