When the time came that I need this service I felt like I wanted it to be simple and respectful for my mom. Lassila made all that happen. Walked me through my options. In some cases the legalities. My 88 year old dad wanted me to take care of this, but they needed his permission for me to do that. Helped me get all the right paper work. Communication was spot on. They helped facilitate picking the ashes up closer to where I live. No question was too much. I struggled with whether or not to have an obituary for my mom in the newspaper. They have an obituary service on their website. Perfect. I sent the link to who I thought would want it. What I didn't know was how distant family I didn't know about could do a search online and find it. Then contact me to send their condolences. I price checked a few places and they were competitive, convenient and comforting. read more

Lassila Funeral Chapels - Rest in peace my beautiful mom. - Funeral Services & Cemeteries Near Me - Auburn, California

During a very difficult time, Lassila Funeral Chapel showed genuine compassion, professionalism, and respect. From our first interaction, Eugene, our funeral director, created an atmosphere of dignity and care that brought comfort when it was needed most. All services were provided with exceptional attention and sensitivity. Eugene took the time to explain each step and ensured everything was managed with grace. His kindness and empathy were evident throughout the entire process, and it was clear the staff at Lassila Funeral Chapel truly cares about the families they serve. They also included after-the-services follow-up help to provide care to the family. We are deeply appreciative of the compassion and professionalism shown to us and definitely recommend their services. read more

I had my mothers service here back in 2016. Lasilla sure made things a heck of a lot easier. I just told them what I wanted and they did it . All I had to do was pick out things like the coffin, flowers, music. They showed a great deal of sympathy and caring. They Made things so much easier for me and my family. They took care of every detail. From the time we arrived till the time we left. I even had a dinner here. They let us use their kitchen. If I recall, they let us stay longer than usual. That was a blessing because some people wanted to hang around and visit. My mother was not the first of our family to have a service there. Nor will she be the last. Thanks Lasilla read more

When both our mother and father were placed in a skilled nursing facility, we had to designate a funeral home, and we selected Lassila. When our beloved Dad passed away in September, we met with David at Lassila and he could not have been more patient, knowledgeable, caring and professional. He guided us gently through the decisions we needed to make with all of the resources to help us readily at hand. We were blown away by all of the facets of interment and other services Lassila had to offer (at reasonable prices). David's competence and constant availability throughout the process truly brought our family peace of mind and contentment of heart in a difficult time. We could not recommend Lassila more highly! read more

We recently had the unfortunate need of a funeral home services. We called a few different local places and were immediately drawn to Lasilla after speaking to Jennifer. She was so warm and understanding, and made us feel comfortable. Using the services of a funeral home is not something you know about before you get there, so feeling comfortable with the staff makes a difficult situation easier. Jennifer helped us make the right decisions, and allowed us to feel that our family member was being taken care of and treated in the manner we expected. The whole experience left us incredibly thankful that we have such a wonderful and caring funeral home in our local area. read more

I would highly recommend Lassila Funeral Chapel and David Banar to assist in your funeral needs. read more

My family member in Grass Valley was ailing. I researched several mortuaries and selected Lasilla. It wasn't just based on price. The primary driver was the care and patience they had with me on the phone as I asked questions. Once their services were needed, the care and patience exhibited early on continued. I never felt uncomfortable working with Eddie. He was efficient, effective, timely, courteous, and extremely kind. I would highly recommend this business. read more
