I had a great experience with the planning of my mother's funeral. First off, all of their front desk associates where extremely professional, caring and very comforting. Maira Tapia, the funeral arranger, is very good at what she does. During the time I was planning my mother's funeral with her, she made me feel comfortable that I had nothing to worry about and everything would go as planned. She made me feel at ease. From the planning till the end. I give Maira and Bryan-Braker 5 stars! read more

We had the privilege of working with Pierre Z'berg as the Funeral Director for my dad, and I truly can't say enough about the care and professionalism he showed during such a difficult time. From the very beginning, Pierre was incredibly responsive--always answering calls and emails promptly, which made the entire process feel much less overwhelming. He was kind, compassionate, and genuinely easy to work with while we made all the arrangements. What stood out most was his flexibility and willingness to accommodate our requests, making sure everything was handled exactly as we hoped. During a time when emotions are high and details matter so much, Pierre provided a calm, supportive presence that we deeply appreciated. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of funeral services. Thank you Pierre! read more

The Staff at this establishment are awesome! I have attended many funerals at Brian Baker and its always professional and timely. I lost a friend who was indigent, without any known family. Kudos to staff member Tarah Coffee who was a blessing to work with when making arrangements. The compassionate work the Brian Baker staff d, to take our loved one remains, cremate, and scatter at sea for no cost gives dignity to our best friend and comfort to us who are not family, but framily to those without one. I highly recommend this business in that time of need. read more

I want to start by thanking Tarah Coffee for the absolutely stunning ceremony she put together for my daughter Vienna. She went above and beyond to make me and everyone else as comfortable as possible and made sure even though we were all together in such a difficult time, that it was a memorable and sentimental experience for us all. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect and beautiful way to send my daughter back home. She even played my baby's special song for her throughout the service, which just made everything even more perfect. read more

Bryan-Braker took much care of my Mom. Everything happened so quickly and as anyone is after losing a loved one, we were not fully there. Bryan-Braker was so attentive, empathetic and caring the whole way through. From the initial collecting of her body, the explanations to options we had in planning a service, the viewing, and lastly the burial. Everything was top notch, and I appreciate everyone that had a role in caring for my Mom, especially Maira for guiding us every step of the way. One of my biggest worries was how she'd look during the viewing, but she looked absolutely beautiful. Thank you, xoxo read more

I am completely amazed by how JoAnn handled all of my mother's funeral and burial arrangements. Even the month leading up to the funeral, she was nothing but professional and helpful. She coordinated everything, explained the process, and made sure the viewing/burial went well. She also communicated effectively by email and phone call to make sure we were looped in on everything. When the day came, my mother looked beautiful. Everyone was impressed and commented on how she looked. The days of the viewing and burial went with no issues so my family and I were able to grieve the loss of my mother. I am very pleased with Bryan-Braker services and JoAnn Moore's assistance. read more

Bryan-Braker Funeral Home has provided an excellent service and have shown compassion to me and my siblings on the passing of our dear mother, Hermie. Everything went exactly as planned. From the time mom died, until we brought her to her final destination. Everyone with whom I dealt was professional, sympathetic, respectful. Joann Moore took very good care of all our needs, from viewing, processing documents, allowing us to be present while mom is being cremated although outside the building already relieved a little bit of our grief and pain and keeping mom's ashes in their loving care for less than a year were very much appreciated. All of these processed went very smoothly. Thank you so much. Phoebe Quindara. read more

Just one year from the passing of my father, I had to prepare myself all over again for the passing of my mom. Bryan Braker was their choice of a funeral home. Tara Coffee and Shannan were the best. They knew what I was going through and made this transition easy as can be. They were patient, took all my calls, answered all my questions, dealt with the insurance company, followed up on delays of the death certificates... Just all around great during that difficult time. I thank you both for all of your help and sincere kindness. I know you deal with this on a daily, but to keep a positive attitude and positive energy is a blessing. Bryan Braker should be glad to have assets like you. - Nikki read more

My mother passed away on January 19th. We were originally told that she had weeks maybe months but she took a sudden down turn and passed away that day. It was by happenstance that I had an appointment at Bryan Braker Funeral Home that same day. I had made the appointment several days prior so we could talk about options and stuff but in light of mom's passing it made it far more urgent. So less than 4 hours after my Mom's passing I entered Bryan & Braker and was met by Greg Boyko. I informed him that my mother had passed away that morning. There was no condolences, there was no empathy, there was no emotion at all. Greg became focused on the fact that my mom's body was not at Bryan & Braker. He left the room several times having the front desk lady call Kaiser to find out why they hadn't been called yet to pick her up. Based on other reviews at this point I did see him as a "used car salesman". Afterall the sooner my mom was in their possession they could charge storage and refrigeration right? I had a unique situation. My mom had paid for her niche and cremation urn. But she had paid for the cremation itself up in Oregon where she was living at the time she paid. To Greg's credit he did call the funeral home up there and arranged for the money to be transferred down to me so there wouldn't be a loss. The meeting was just cold and unfeeling. I realize its a business but my Mom had JUST passed away. By the time we were done the total was about 3 times what Oregon charges. Which again I get it, its a business and California is much more expensive. There was also an extra charge for my mom's burial plaque because we wanted to add wording. But never once did he offer condolences or anything. Despite me being the primary executor to my mom the way he drew up the contract I had to take it to my sister who was not doing well with my mom's passing to have her sign it. Then had to make a trip back on Friday to drop it off. The following Monday Greg called to let me know he picked my mom's body up on Friday and that apparently he needed another signature which mercifully we could do via email. He eluded to a possible additional charge for something called an "air tray". Thankfully this was not added at anytime. Roughly 2 weeks later Greg called to advise that my mom's ashes, death certificates, etc was ready for pick up. I was at work already and asked if my sister could go. He reluctantly agreed preferring that I was to pick up. During the call he tried to state that I still owed for my mom's burial plaque. I reminded him that it was paid for along with the extra wording. After a brief research he confirmed that. Following my mom's memorial on the 17th of Feb (not at Bryan & Braker thank God) I called Greg to make arrangements for my mom's ashes to be interred. We set the date for the following Wednesday. My sister, brother-in-law, and myself arrived at 11am and the groundskeeper had a table setup and allowed us a few moments before interring my mom's ashes. It took about 2.5 months for my mom's plaque to come in and was just recently installed and it turned out just as we had asked. Which I appreciated. And is why this review was done now I wanted to ensure the entire transaction had been completed. Honestly I wanted to go through Vaca Hills Chapel because i know them and they are good God loving people who go to The Father's House. But my mom was very insistent that we used Bryan & Braker. So I honored her wishes. I just can't in good conscious give them more than 2 stars based on Yelp's rating scale. Greg needs to retire or go through some retraining on helping people who are grieving during the process. I personally will not be using them again. read more

Horrible service. If I could rate my experience with zero stars I would. I called for a follow up MULTIPLE days at various times to get an update with no response. read more

My sister passed away unexpectedly on December 23, 2024. Jessie has helped us immensely in the hard decision-making process. She was patient and kind to us all. She also made my sister look beautiful for the family viewing. If I could give Bryan Braker ten stars, I would. When it came time to pay the bill, I was pleasantly surprised at the cost. I recommend Bryan Braker to everyone. read more

Beautiful venue but definitely need to update the Church Pews & restrooms! Friendly staff.

I recently had the experience to use Bryan-Braker for the services of my husband. Our funeral director was Alex Santiago and he did an outstanding job of taking care of everything we needed done. I would highly recommend him if you are in need of a funeral director in the future. read more

I contacted the funeral home because I wanted to have my mother's ashes placed into a proper urn. When I contacted the funeral home the woman who answered was pleasant and told me not to worry someone would contact me to schedule for me to come in and bring the ashes. I was surprised that the service would be provided for free especially since I was just a random caller. My mother was cremated in another town fours ago and I had finally purchased a urn of my liking. Greg was friendly and presented the urn to me once he was done. I'm so thankful for the service read more

Dealing with loss is never easy, and having someone we trust to handle the funeral arrangements is essential. We prefer doctors, mechanics, beauticians, and other service providers. Morgan and the Bryan-Braker Funeral Home will be our family's preferred funeral arranger. I wanted to express our family's heartfelt gratitude for Morgan's exceptional service during the recent loss of our family's matriarch. She was there every step of the way, making a difficult time a little easier. We felt supported and guided throughout. She went above and beyond from the start of our initial phone call to the final details. She was always prepared, understanding, and responsive to our needs. We were very impressed with how she did her homework before our meeting, which made our decision-making easier. She oversaw every detail with professionalism and care. Morgan is compassionate and professional and has phenomenal interpersonal skills. Her ability to connect with us on a personal level made a significant difference during our grieving process. This makes her an exceptional component to the Bryan-Braker team. We are so grateful to Morgan and the Bryan-Braker team for their dedication to serving our family and our loved one during our time of loss. The Family of Evelyn Macias read more

Horrible customer service, no empathy during a very difficult time. I left several messages with their answering service with no return call. Receptionist was passive aggressive when I explained I've left several messages & asked an approximate time when a funeral director will return my call. I was stunned. We have used Bryan Braker in the past & it's unbelievable how things have changed. Customer service begins with the person who answers the phone then a follow up. BB has failed in this. The director (Joann) we were assigned to dropped the ball on so many levels, we decided to go with another funeral home. ***Don't risk it. *** read more

Thank you so much to the staff for taking such good care of me through a trying time. I especially want to thank Jessie. This may sound weird, but she got me. She knew when to comfort me and when to giggle with me. Yes, a bit of humor can help sometimes. She took care of everything. She said I was easy to work with, but it was because she was easy to work with and knew exactly what needed to be taken care of. Any questions she got back to me in a very prompt time. I have nothing but respect and gratitude to Jessie and Bryan and Braker Funeral Home read more

My Mom passed on Sunday,6/12/2022. The police called Bryan Baker Funeral Home to pick her up. The next morning I called Greg Boyko the one that was on call the day before. He was like using a used car salesman. I told him I was going to be using Vaca Hills Chapel. He told me then it would cost me $290 for refrigeration and $395 for transportation and told me to bring a check when I come pick up my Mom and he hung up. I will never use them or recommend them to anyone. If someone passes do not let them pick up your loved ones. He never once told me that he was sorry for my loss. read more
