We are so grateful for the expertise, expediency, and empathy they provided our family during the planning process of laying a loved one to rest. They expertly guided us through all the necessary details not matter how tedious, including her coffin and funeral announcement, both of which reflected her spirit and personality perfectly! My beloved Grandma wished to be reunited in death with her husband - and love of her life - who was buried at National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona in in 1993. Alden-Waggoner went above and beyond while coordinating the transport and receiving of her body to Wyman Funeral Home in Mesa, Arizona. Everything went smoothly and precisely as planned. My Grandma was given the respect and dignity she deserved, and had a funeral which reflected her extraordinary life and exuberant spirit. We are so appreciative to Alden-Waggoner for their help with this!

This business has disappointed and disgusted me. I have…read moregiven them opportunity after opportunity to right their wrongs, but every time I turn around, the professionalism and effort that we paid for is not there. My grandma passed out of nowhere in November of 2022. Our family was destroyed, rocked to the very core! I was two weeks out from major surgery, otherwise I probably could have been more on top of the situation than I was, but I did my absolute best to help my mom and aunt. Cloverdale did not. We spent hundreds of dollars on flowers and the colors were wrong. They cut off the amazing ending of the gut-wrenching tribute video I made of my grandma's life to honor her and say goodbye. The tech people just decided the video was done and pushed STOP instead of allowing it to play to the end. I was devastated, but things happen, we move on. We learn, we grow. I tried to let things go for my grandma's sake, so she could rest in peace. Unfortunately, this business has been given multiple opportunities to make my grandma's final resting place a beautiful space of tribute, love, and peace, but instead, they keep passing the buck and my grandma's grave looks like an after thought that has been left to wane. Every time I go to the cemetery to respect my grandparents and get some healing, I leave more distraught than when I came in. It took EIGHT MONTHS to get the name plate and a replacement vase for the one they broke decades ago. I have gone to several funerals since my grandmother's and every mortuary director I spoke with told me bronze name plates were out 2-3 months, NOT EIGHT! Regardless, today I went out and the name plate and vase were FINALLY there. HOWEVER, the grass is STILL dead!! I go at least once a month to check on things. NEVER, not once, NOT EVER has the grass been acceptable in any way. On Memorial Day, they threw on some new sod, but that's already dead. I want my grandma's grave restored, and I want it perfect. You have one job, burying people with dignity and respect, and my grandmother has received none! GET IT FIXED! I have attached multiple pictures from multiple trips. My other grandma passed away in April, and her grave in Boise already has grass grown in. That's right, I lost both my grandmas within 5 months of each other. As you can surmise, my heart is completely shattered, so my patience for this issue is gone.

My family isn't the easiest to work it but Lauren handled it like a boss! I appreciate you, Lauren for taking time out of your day to talk to me, see how I'm doing and genuinely engage with me. You listened with undivided attention. I know I wasn't the only person she dealt with all day so to have that kind of uninterrupted attention was very much appreciated. I couldn't recommend a better group of people and business to take care of my family or your family's needs when it comes to burial services. They took such good care of my grandma when she was there and took amazing care of us from the moment we stepped into Cloverdale till I picked up my Grandma's death certificate. Thank you Cloverdale.
