As a fellow professional in the death care industry, I am very much aware of the processes and the quality of services that a mortuary should provide the families that they serve. Catholic Mortuary in Mission Hills exceeded my professional and personal expectations. My whole family is forever grateful to the well coordinated service, timely communication and seamless process that they gave us. Thank you, Victor Sanchez, Carlos, Jose and to Susana, who always greeted us with such warmth and sincerity. They were all great! Our viewing and funeral ceremony will always be cherished! Our funeral director at the cemetery also served and assisted us so patiently. Please continue your hard work and offering value to your families and community.- Grace Manio, FSA.

We've visited San Fernando Mission Cemetery several times to attend services and funerals for…read morefamily and friends, however this is the first time we've experienced their hands on customer care regarding funeral services during the passing of my beloved mom two months ago. My parents have purchased their resting place and services here at San Fernando Mission Cemetery more than two decades ago. My beloved mom was diagnosed with cancer and within 6 months she passed. Estela Sanchez, one of the funeral directors that took care of all our family's needs were excellent from beginning to end. She took care of everything for my dad and our family. At the time of passing, the mortuary came to the house and collected my mom's body within two hours of her passing. They gave full care and consideration for other family members that arrived late early morning to say their proper farewell. Following the days before the services, mass and funeral we were contacted several times to inform us and remind us of the schedule. We had the pleasure of working with Deacon Johnson assisting the mass and taking care of the services for my beloved mom. Deacon Johnson from San Fernando Mission Cemetery also coordinated with our parish priest Father Lawerence to have the funeral mass for our beloved mom. We had the proper Catholic funeral mass. San Fernando Mission Cemetery even had the plaque ready for my beloved mom's resting place when they said it would be. Thankful for the care, consideration and kindness San Fernando Mission Cemetery provided my dad and our family during services, funeral and mass for our beloved mom. We know her remains lay safe in her resting spot at San Fernando Mission Cemetery. She is in eternal rest in the loving arms of God in Heaven. We love and miss you so much mom. +++

I want to start this review with a broken heart , when dealing with a difficult part of life, with…read morea love one's loss, the most hardest difficult situation. However, I personally will never be using San Fernando, Mission Cemetery, or what I'd be recommending them to anybody. There lack empathy. They threw our mother's flowers away. Hundreds and $100s, a beautiful arrangements that our family members sent with lots of love . Our mother was just buried on Saturday to have them removed on Monday morning. What a slap in the face so disrespectful ....we just visited her on Sunday and the flowers still look good, when reaching out to the office and speaking with Lourdes, she stated that the rules state they will be removed in 2 days. She said it's the 3rd initialed page. I told her it hasn't even been 48 hours with her in the ground. She said theres no time so 2 days was considered this morning. Which is ridiculous! I share this, so you all know if you'll be bearing a loss ,love one, beautiful flower arrangements . If you'd like to keep anything, remove them prior. This is just to make unknown to the community because they expect you to read every fine line even if your heart is broken and dealing with a family loss! Mission cemetery gets a "0 zero stars

I found Anubis and called, unsure if they would service the Orange County area. Absolutely everyone we spoke with at Anubis was very considerate and very accommodating. It was the Friday before Memorial Day so it took a while to get to Orange County. They carefully transferred my Mom to their vehicle. They were very responsive to all of our questions and really made the whole process much easier than I thought it would be. We really appreciated that as we were still trying to process our Mom's passing. They're the best! They arranged a meeting point midway between Glendale and where we lived in Orange County to transfer our urns to us. I highly, highly recommend Anubis. They really made a difficult time easier because of their excellent care of our Mom.

Two years ago, when my Mom's health began to deteriorate, my family and I sat down to discuss what…read moreto do when that fateful day comes and she passes away. I mean, how many people really know what to do at that terribly emotional and shocking time? Utter McKinley in The Valley (Mission Hills, to be exact) had provided services for previous relatives, but that was quite a while ago. So, I called them. Besides getting a general price quote, I was told that, day or night, just give 'em a call and they'd pick up the body. Early last month, Mom passed away at a skilled nursing facility, just 2 days prior to her 90th birthday. When my Sister called me with the news, before I headed to the site, I found my UM notes. It was evening, but I called their number anyway, and a gentleman answered! He was on-call at a sister mortuary, but said he'd coordinate sending 2 Utter McKinley representatives to come for her. Sure enough, in a bit over an hour, the fellows arrived (they were in Pasadena at the time) and took Mom back to the mortuary. In a matter of days, we met with Erick--one of the amazing Arrangements Counselors at UM. From the moment my Sister and I sat down with him, he was compassionate, professional, and kind. He made great suggestions, and helped us make decisions (there were a lot of them); and, at no time pressured us into a particular purchase. Last week, we had her funeral. When I told him my buddy put together a Celebration of Life video tribute, he said to email it to him. He burned a DVD, and we played it after the eulogy and other speeches. Such a kind offer, and the family/guests loved it. Once everything concluded, Erick accompanied the hearse and family to the cemetery. Oh, an additional shoutout to Kayla--also one of the Utter McKinley Arrangements Counselors. She did Mom's makeup, and her artistry was amazing. Many guests commented on how natural and at peace Mom looked. A historical note: The mortuary has been serving families at the Mission Hills location (corner of San Fernando Mission Boulevard and Columbus Avenue, across from the San Fernando Mission Hills Cemetery) since 1962! Prior to that, UM was located on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood from the mid-30s through the 50s. My point is, this mortuary has been around for nearly 100 years. They do things right. When you lose a loved one, put your trust in Utter McKinley.
