My family and I absolutely are so grateful for this place and especially Christian. We unfortunately have lost multiple loved ones the past couple of years and this is our first choice to handle our loved ones affairs. Death is already so hard and painful , but the level of customer service , and compassion they give is next level. Christian is such a special person to our family, and has really been so easy to work with throughout this crazy process. The biggest gift he has ever given us is the ability to see my lil brother and cousin one last time. My family didn't think this was a possibility, but he made it happen , giving my family peace in being able to say goodbye. So if you're looking for professional, compassionate, and next level service , this place is it. We've gone as far as to pay for services ahead of time for many of my family members , because death can come so sudden , and we want it to be handled properly , and know Christian will do just that. Thanks you Emerson & Barlett for blessing my family and carefully handling our hearts as we grieved and lost our loves ones. We're eternally grateful for all the wonderful staff and hard work and long hours put it . It is noticed , and you're appreciated and doing great work!

Christian at Emmerson Bartlett provided excellent, caring assistance when my husband passed away. From my first call, to our first meeting, to the chapel service to Riverside National Cemetery-- Christian was right there. Everything went smoothly. My husband's service was beautiful from beginning to end. Christian listened to our requests, tuned in to what I had hoped for and made it happen. I gave him a selection of songs and pictures from my husband's life. He turned it into a wonderful video. Most all of us, if we are lucky, don't have a lot of experience (and I have had more than I would like to!) in being responsible for planning events such as funerals--so to have a knowledgeable, comforting person to guide us through it was a blessing. Christian also called to see how I was doing after it was all over. In addition, my youngest stepdaughter passed away about a month after her dad. Her sisters wanted to honor her wishes to be buried at sea. Because of our experience at Emmerson-Bartlett with Christian, they were fortunate in knowing they could turn to him for guidance once again. Thank you Christian and the staff at Emmerson-Bartlett for making things easier for us during a period of great loss. read more

My father passed away quickly after a cancer diagnosis. We were in complete shock, and we r still in shock. When we first met with Christian at Emmerson, he listened to us reminiscence of the past and discussed what my father wanted at his funeral. We spoke for about an hour and a half. We never felt rushed. My father wanted his coffin covered with the USA flag due to his military service. He didn't want anything else but the flag. I struggled not getting flowers because I've always seen flowers at funerals. Christian assured me it would be beautiful, and it was AMAZING. The flag showed how much respect my father had for the USA and the years he spent fighting in Vietnam. The flag is also known as a pilar of strength, and my dad was definitely the pilar of our family. We needed to take time for relatives to come to California for the services, and that was fine. They never rushed us, and they were always helpful when we discussed what my dad wanted. I highly recommend Emerson Mortuary and Christian. Christian's patience and dedication are something rarely seen in today's times. I would give them 100/100 if I could. read more

Tomorrow July 1st will be 4 years that my brother Tony has been gone, that day time stood still for me, I felt lost and hopeless! Never ever having to Lay a loved one to rest, let alone my baby brother, he was my heart and I loved his beautiful out going soul and he deserved the best. I remember when I walked into Emmerson Bartlett, I'd seen this place being I've lived in Redlands for so long, but never ever would I have thought I'd see the inside. I walked in and I met Christian, who I must say just let me cry and he knew immediately I was lost and struggling to figure this tragic loss. He was so kind, and didn't rush me he let me cry and talk about my Brother! He listened and promised me he would be there every step of the way and was just a phone call away. That day I felt a little less loss, he kept his promise, he helped me and my daughter get through the loss of my brother, his service was beautiful and my brother looked at peace! I'm ever grateful to christian, I could never thank him enough. Muriel S. read more

I can't say enough about the amazing job Emmerson-Bartlett in Redlands did, specifically Christian Quintana. He was attentive, extremely detailed, patient and compassionate. Very close family friends told me the wonderful job he had done for them and they were absolutely right! From the moment I called and talked to him I felt at ease. When he said he would take care of something he did. He went above and beyond. I had to have a service in California and back East for my mother and he took care of every detail with no hiccups. The difference between Emmerson-Bartlett and the funeral home back East were night and day. You can't even compare. Christian cared for my mother in death with such respect and I am so grateful for that. He was truly a blessing. At Emmerson -Bartlett they really care and make every effort to comfort you and take care of all of your needs during this difficult time. It is greatly appreciated and will never be forgotten. I thank everyone there from the bottom of my heart. read more

Christian helped our family immensely in 2019 with the passing of our dad and again in 2023 with the passing of our mom. On both occasions, Christian was compassionate and professional every step of the way. He fully explained everything we needed to do to have a lovely service and burial for our parents. We received many compliments about the tribute page, video picture collage, and program that Christian created for us. The reception room allowed for our family and friends to gather comfortably to enjoy food and fellowship as we remembered the good times we had with each other. Christian also orchestrated absolutely everything with the Riverside National Cemetery. Both burials there were well-planned and special. Before and after the services/burials of our parents, Christian would reach out to us to see if we needed anything or had any questions. I would definitely recommend Emmerson-Bartlett Memorial Chapel, especially Christian, for the funeral arrangements of a loved one. Lorraine Rehm read more

Emmerson-Bartlett is the Best Choice! Christian has helped me through 3 different planning processes. His support and guidance along with his compassionate heart was greatly appreciated. My mother-in-law had a pre-planned paid from 30 years prior and was handled very professional. Then the 2nd, was a Veterans Military honor burial and he handled it with dignity, respect and experience. He handled the videographer to capture a beautiful video during Covid so that all family across the states could feel apart of. The 3rd, most recent was another Military Honor burial at Riverside National Cemetery and everything was put together nicely.Each time the picture video's as a treasured keepsake along with the quality programs. We are grateful to have Christian and Emmerson-Bartlett family in our communities. read more

After my father passed away my family was heartbroken and lost. I had never planned a memorial before. Where do I go? What do I need to do? I'm so happy we found Emmerson-Bartlett Memorial Chapel. Even better was we met Jennifer Koepsell who was so friendly and kind. She was a God send for us. She helped plan the memorial from beginning to end. She calmed us down when we panicked and made the whole process less stressful. She answered every phone call and text and made herself available even on her personal time. The memorial turned out beautiful and she made sure everyone and everything was attended to. I really appreciated all her hard work and expertise. I highly recommend Emmerson-Bartlett and Jennifer Koepsell. Chris L. read more

My sister passed recently and I needed just a small chapel for her services. I was stressed and didn't know where to look. The larger mortuaries wouldn't even talk to me since we didn't schedule the cremation through them. I reached out on the Yucaipa town FB page, and Anthony responded to contact him. He IS AMAZING and I will be forever grateful that God sent him my way. I cannot recommend the Yucaipa location highly enough. Anthony and Angie were so good to me and my family. I will never use a corporate mortuary, again, and will always recommend the Emerson-Bartlett Memorial Chapel in Yucaipa. Thank you, Anthony. read more

My mom and dad passed away in the same week. Anthony and the whole Emmerson Bartlett team made the process of putting everything into place so easy. They went above and beyond to help us make sure the graveside service went smoothly and easily. He even contacted the cemetery for us to make sure everything was ready for the service. We felt so blessed to have Anthony stand beside us through the whole process. I can't say enough good things about these dedicated people whose goal is to make a hard moment in life just a little bit easier! Thank you for your dedication. read more

He was patient, respectful, and professional; in short, he was wonderful. He made a very difficult time survivable. Thank you, Alexis. read more

I had the best possible experience working with Jennifer at Emerson Bartlett. Loosing a loved one is so disorienting and Jennifer was so patient and kind for the few months we working together on memorial arrangements. I so appreciated her quick responses and flexibility during the planning process. She over delivered in so many ways and I couldn't thank her enough. I felt so supported by her during such a rough time. She is a true Angel! Thank you Jennifer! read more

We are currently mourning the loss of a beloved friend. This past September we acquired Emmerson-Bartlett Memorial's services and what can we say. Rick and Christian went above and beyond our expectations. Not only did they take care of our friend's family but they also offered the best prices in town. They worked with us and accommodated the family's every need. I highly recommend their services over any other funeral home. read more
