From helping me with her casket, death certificate, planning out her obituary message, flowers for her service, my mom's wishes to drive around the mall one last time before being buried, mariachi music, church arrangements, security, limo, releasing of the doves & meaning & family involved with it. Plus, all family throwing rose petals in the air & stating one thing they remembered about her before she was buried meant a lot. It was meaningful, and I couldn't ask for better service than what he provided. Thank you, Rivera Funeral Home, for all you did for me and my family during vulnerable moments of my loss of my mother.

Answered our many questions and did not try to push us into things we didn't want. We chose something simple & were very satisfied with the service & price. We are very grateful for his help. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone.

This business is not open on the weekends and it cost $500 to bury a family member on a weekend. The loss of a loved one has been hard enough much less to have this company not do their jobs. Especially, when they contract out their services!!!!!!!!!! Epic fail. Use Direct Services if you can. My best friend used them last week and were already able to have a service today.
