Daniel was so professional and sympathetic regarding the collection of our son's body from the LA County Medical Examiner's office. He was the first person we encountered to go above and beyond during this process. It has taken me over a year to write this review as it is still an emotional subject, but I wanted to share how lovely Luyben Dilday is in handling all the aspects of laying a loved one to rest. Daniel was so thoughtful and helped walk us through the process. I am forever thankful for him and Luyben Dilday Mortuary.

From the bottom of my heart, want to send my many thanks to Jordan and the entire Luyben Dilday Mortuary family. Mahalo and aloha!

That alone saved me from 2 hours of LA traffic and having to navigate the Office of Vital Records while grieving. After one phone call, Braedon took care of everything quickly, professionally, and without any unnecessary complications. In a time of loss, what you want most is an ethical business that helps you with what you need without trying to exploit your vulnerability. That can be surprisingly hard to find in the funeral industry, which is why working with Life Source felt like a blessing. I received excellent service at a fair price without any upsells, pressure, or hidden fees. Because of their support, we had a beautiful burial at sea. After so many awful experiences with traditional funeral homes in the past, Life Source has restored my faith in the healing power of thoughtful and intentional end-of-life rituals. I highly recommend.

My husband's daughter died very suddenly & tragically last month. Josh's enormous help, compassion and attention to detail is what got us through this ordeal. He is on top of everything, an excellent communicator and true care and concern cannot be expressed adequately. He is quick to respond ALWAYS, answers all calls & texts quickly and accommodated some last minute requests in the best possible way. I've personally not arranged a cremation before, and he walked me through every step of the way, from interacting with the coroner, all the way to obtaining the death certificate. Josh, from the Martinez family, thank for your superb work and we wish many blessings upon you and your family.

I've been interested in the funeral business since 2018 and have reached out to places on and off just hoping to learn more. I wasn't even asking for a job, just insight, but no one ever took the time to respond. Ryan did. He spent nearly two hours of his day talking with me, while still managing his work, answering all of my questions about the industry, his role, and what it's really like to be in this field. He even shared ways I could get started at an entry-level position, which was incredibly helpful and thoughtful. It's rare to meet someone so knowledgeable and generous with their time, especially when they're not getting anything in return. Ryan is sincere, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about what he does. I only wish I had known about him when my own family needed services. Ryan Preston is truly exceptional, and I'm very grateful he took the time to speak with me.

During intake, I explained that I live in a different county and have two small children, making travel difficult. I was told the company would retrieve my mother's belongings from the coroner's office when they picked her up, and that they would hand-deliver her ashes to me directly. Both of these were major reasons I chose them over other options. Neither happened as promised. On the day she was picked up, I received no final confirmation. I had to call multiple times, text, and leave voicemails just to get confirmation the next day that she'd been picked up -- and that they had not retrieved her belongings as agreed. I ended up having to make a 4-hour round trip myself to collect them. Weeks later, I got a call saying they actually couldn't cross county lines to deliver her to me after all. My options were to drive back myself or have her shipped. I chose shipping, and she was left sitting outside in the sun, I didn't even have to sign for delivery. Throughout this, I spoke with several different staff members, and no one seemed to have a clear picture of what had gone wrong or what had already been communicated. I received little acknowledgment of how badly this was handled, and no offer of any refund or compensation. I was told "not sure why we didn't get her things". When I explained they also knew I lived in a different county from the start and I was never told about crossing county lines, I was brushed off. This is one of the most sensitive services a family will ever need, and it deserves careful, consistent communication. I did not get that here, and I would not recommend this company.
