I found this company and went to the office and made all the arrangements. He passed that afternoon. They provided pickup and the services. Very professional. My sister passed recently without a lot of notice. Hospice called and said the time was near. I called CSI and they emailed me the forms. I filled them out and they took care of everything. I noticed some reviews saying incorrect info held everything up. I'm not sure why when Erica sent me the official document to review and insure everything was correct. In both cases I received a call, email or text letting me know what was happening. I feel that they were very caring and trustworthy.

Dealing with the loss of a loved one is never easy, and for our family--who had never experienced a…read moredeath so close to home--losing our father was truly devastating. From the very beginning, Jesus provided us with an incredible level of support and compassion that we will never forget. He was kind, patient, and informative, never once rushing or pressuring us into making any decisions about the funeral home. Once we had finalized the church and cemetery, Jesus took care of the rest. We chose to hold the viewing at his chapel, and we're so glad we did--it offered an intimate and peaceful setting during a very emotional time. On the day of the funeral, Jesus continued to show professionalism and grace, helping ease our nerves when emotions were running high. He stayed by our side until the very end at the cemetery. Even after the services, Jesus continued to be helpful--our stepmother reached out to him to order some memorial keychains for the family, and he was able to provide them in a timely and thoughtful manner. What also meant a lot to us was the feedback from others--friends and extended family who attended the memorial service and funeral had nothing but praise for Jesus and the entire Magallon team. Their care, respect, and professionalism did not go unnoticed. We can't thank Jesus enough for the support he gave us during such a difficult time. Choosing Magallon Funeral Home was one of the best decisions we made--you will not regret putting your trust in them.

We had an unexpected loss, and I called to get information…read more If you need to make cremation arrangements in the San Diego area, this is the company to call. From picking up the phone on a Sunday, to walking us through the process, to having the most reasonable costs I found (when making a few calls that day), AFS went above and beyond. They showed compassion, didn't "sell us" - just provided the info we needed and said they'd be there if we needed them. We quickly secured their services, and I cannot recommend them enough.

Not having any experience directly taking care of arrangements after someone has passed, I had no idea what I was doing or what to expect through the process. Joey and Tara were so wonderful and answered my questions, helped set expectations properly for me and were always available to take calls. Their pricing is very competitive and straightforward. There aren't any hidden or additional fees that surprise you when it comes time to make payment. I highly recommend them to help anyone through one of the most difficult and challenging life events. Thank you Joey and Tara!

For the cost of service, close to $4500, we felt they could have included the $37.00 candle…read morelighting ceremony, rather than nickel and dimming us for it at the end. Especially since there was no organized ceremony , they simply provided the candles. Also, our service was at 1:00 so we arrive at 11:30 to set up since they have a kitchen and dining area, we were serving food. We were told they could not let us in before 12noon without charging us. That seemed a little absurd. Aside from this two issues, it is a nice place to hold a memorial and the one staff member there allowed us privacy during our time, and was helpful, which we appreciated.
