Unexpectedly had to plan my older brother's funeral due to his sudden death, my family and I didn't know where to start when planning a funeral since it was the first one in our family. During our grieving and mourning I came across Natural Grace Funeral and Crematory came in contact with Shari Wolf who assisted me through the whole process from beginning to end with endless communication even during the weekend to plan this all within 2 weeks of my brother's passing. My parents and family were satisfied with all the efforts to make this all happen even such little time, his service was simple yet comforting to our family & friends to pay their respects & good byes to him. Would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a service well executed and we were very grateful for making this such a smooth journey. From the bottom of our hearts we thank you for your work read more

I can't say enough great things about Natural Grace. From the very beginning, Shari was so warm & friendly on the phone. You can tell that she really cares about people. She was always positive & easy to talk to. Rene & Tawny were great too! The whole process went so smoothly. They really make a difficult situation as easy as possible. I am so glad we chose them to handle such an important step in the passing of our loved one. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart read more

Shari was absolutely the most helpful and kind person and went to the ends of the earth to help us and make sure that our experience in our grief was comfortable and well accommodated for. read more

This is a very special group of people and I am so grateful. I really didn't know where to start. Shari, Tawny and Rene are so kind. Shari picked up the phone right away and walked me through the process and made everything so easy. She is transparent, kind and straightforward. Tawny and Rene kept me informed every step of the way and took multiple phone calls. Everyone genuinely cares and is so professional, which means so much when you are already dazed and grieving. Thank you for being there for our family through such a hard time. read more

If you don't know what to do after someone has passed and are trying to figure it all out Shari is amazing. I had no idea what I needed or was looking for but Shari helped me understand and organize everything. We were able to get things done quickly and with no hassle. Thank you shari for being warm and also professional during difficult times for families. She found us a beautiful church for services and everything went smoothly. read more

This horrific experience of losing our daughter was made so much more peaceful and helpful with Shari. I cannot tell you how much she made this experience better with her kindness and professionalism. I would recommend them if you have a death in your family 100%! read more

My brother,Miguel Torres, passed after battling cancer causing a lot of grief.services offered by you brought so much relief to us knowing that his last goodbye is handled by compassionate people. read more

Shari is the best. Very attentive and seemingly always available. Highly recommend to anyone going through the difficult process of losing a loved one. read more

I couldn't agree more with the comments in the other reviews here. My experience with Shari for her services provided to my husband (Donald Benton) couldn't have been performed more professionally and with such empathy. At a time when you need no extra stress, Natural Grace made it simple and stress free. They even delivered my husbands remains to me at my home. I was amazed and grateful. Thank you to Shari and her staff. Jeanette read more

Calling a Funeral Home at 31yo. for my estranged husband I still loved was not something I thought I'd be doing. I was not happy with my prior Funeral Home choice and decided to search again. It was a beautiful BLESSING to find Natural Grace. Shari, was full of empathy, patience and eloquence. This is a sensitive line of work to be in full of unpredictable emotions. Shari wore many hats she deserves an award because not many people are able to help in the way that she did her staff alone is WOW. Brad, who picked up my husband let me follow behind him for pickup and drop off. This staff really babysat me at all hours of the night you would think I paid them $20k. My husbands viewing and mass was so beautiful. Shari carried out everything with true care and compassion. She kept everything smooth down to details of the flowers and how to arrange everyone to say their goodbyes. If you need a beautiful, smooth and compassionate priced service for your loved one this is a Funeral Home and Staff you can trust. Give them the reigns and you will be so happy. read more

this was not sent to this company. totally misleading on what I requested. The gravestone lady suggested that it could help you with engraving a head stone was told they couldn't help me. so what is it that they do? no response read more

Just minutes after my grandma passed away in the ER the nurse and the pre-paid funeral/cemetery place my grandma had paid for notified me that I had to find a place to store her body before she could be buried since she did not have a funeral package. When I don't know where to start looking for any type of place I automatically Yelp things and Natural Grace was the first to pop up. I feel that even though my grandma just barely passed away she immediately was guiding me toward this company because this company, and more specifically Sheri, were just the biggest blessing. She guided me and my family in a timely matter and with full details through the whole process. She did what she could to work with us on costs and with the funeral insurance my grandma had. I'm sure we were so annoying at times but she handled it all with "natural grace". I am in awe of this woman. I'm sure her field has great demand during COVID times but she cared for us as if we were her only priority. Though I felt so lost, hurt and broken during this time, I knew I could get through this painful task of planning a funeral because of her support. Everything came out as perfectly as one could hope for during pandemic times. I truly wish I could give more than 5 stars because a Yelp rating and this little message could not express just how amazing my experience was. Though I pray I would never need to see Sheri again, I know that if I or anyone I know is in need of her services I would not hesitate to call. Thanks Sheri for being a guardian angel on earth. read more

My wife and I lost our daughter at 15 weeks gestation. I came across Natural Grace through search and seen that they have helped other families with child loss. When I called Shari, I couldn't even speak cohesively at first. Never thought I would have to do this for my own baby. Shari understood the pain I was going through, walked me through the process and let her know when we needed her assistance. Shari and Tawny were very responsive and compassionate throughout the process. I could not have asked for more and felt at ease when I realized we were in good hands. read more

Took some time to write this. But back in March my mother had passed from a long fight with cancer. And as hard as that was Shari made everything so much easier for us, her children. She was attentive to detail all while showing compassion and empathy. From start to finish she literally went above and beyond from driving to our home in Whittier to making sure everything was perfect at the end. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. read more

I was very pleased with the process. Sheri made it very easy for us and was so kind and polite and kept me informed throughout the process. Thank you as someone who hasn't experienced a lost from someone so close and having to take charge and step up for my in laws was hard but I'm glad I came across Natural Grace read more

Polished , professional , trustworthy ... exactly what you need when dealing with a loss .

Shari was really wonderful to work with. She took care of everything for us in this most difficult time. I'm so grateful to have found Natural Grace. Shari and her team were so kind and caring and i really appreciate the ease that using their service afforded us because it's such an odd time to be expected to know how to navigate the whole process of passing and Shari just took care of all of it and I can't thank her enough!! read more

My dad died unexpectedly during the covid pandemic. We had to withdraw support and I was at a loss as to how to make arrangements for him. I called Shari and she immediately put me at ease and I could tell that I didn't have to worry. She walked me through what needed to happen. She was able to rush my dads cremation - he died on Wednesday and his ashes were available by Friday. She delivered his cremains to the pilot with a journey with wings that Friday and we were able to scatter his ashes by Saturday. Can't say enough good things about natural grace. Thank you so much for everything! read more

Natural Grace and owner Shari Wolf were compassionate and competent as we made arrangements for our loved one's cremation in October 2018. We were kept informed every step of the way and she was able to deliver us the ashes in time for a special celebration of life event. Other firms we initially reached out to seemed more rote, run-of-the-mill and at a tender time, such as this unexpected death of a loved one, I appreciated her one-on-one time and caring approach very much. Some of the other options had pretty creepy websites and never even returned my initial phone call. I was able to speak with Shari one morning at 6:00 AM and she patiently answered questions and guided us through all the various steps. This was my first experience with this process and for someone in the midst of grieving and not at all familiar with the process and the process in general, her calm demeanor, accurate information, patience and professionalism throughout were very much appreciated. read more

We had a great experience with their service. During a difficult time for our family, Sheri was so kind and very easy to work with. She really takes her time to get to know what your wishes are for your loved one. read more

My mother recently passed away and after doing some research, we decided to contact Shari at Natural Grace to discuss final arrangements. Shari could not have been more accommodating, compassionate and professional. Every interaction with her was focused on making this process easier for my sister and I. At no point did Shari push or try to sell us. Shari's support made a very difficult time a lot less difficult. Thank you Shari and Tawney for your genuine compassion and help. read more

Update: We sadly lost our daughter while I was 21 weeks pregnant. I called Sheri and she made sure our daughter was picked up the same day. Tawny and Sheri went above and beyond to make sure Adalyn was cremated and returned to us as quickly as possible. Tawny kept us updated throughout the whole process and went out of her way to make this experience a little easier for us. Our family deeply appreciates the care Tawny and Sheri showed our family through this painful time. I highly recommend using them! read more

We turned to Natural Grace for help with the passing of a dear partner and friend who wanted a natural, personalized approach. The founder Shari's sensitivity, expertise, deep spirituality, and caring were exceptional. She helped us all navigate this difficult time, and her knowledge of our options for green burials and other natural methods is invaluable. We are recommending Natural Grace to everyone we know. read more

Shari and her team are incredible. Mom passed away after dementia, small and frail. We were with her every step of the way, and knew she would join Dad at their Pacific View plot. I also knew she did not want the fancy, formal Pacific View burial experience. We wanted this to be more meaningful and less formal. It's why I reached out to Natural Grace before mom passed. Mom loved nature, so Shari gave us alternatives to a typical embalmed funeral. Even though we didn't plan to see mom, Shari asked for pictures of mom to ensure mom looked like herself, with just a gentle touch of makeup. Such unexpected care, detail and effort was comforting to all of us. Shari made sure mom's favorite Pendleton blanket was wrapped around her. We arranged for a direct burial, with our closest family witnessing the burial. We shared a few words and threw flowers from her garden into the grave. Shari remained and provided gentle guidance. Due to covid, the family later met at a local park and shared stories over sandwiches and homemade cake. My retired military brother said it was one of the best funerals he'd attended. I was relaxed because Shari and her team handled the paperwork and I could focus on my family's needs and grief. Shari helped us have the confidence to do what was best for everyone, especially mom. read more

We are so grateful to Shari. My sister passed away and she was there to guide and assist us through this very difficult time. On the day of my sister's service she took care of everything without hesitation. She is a true professional and we were blessed to have her support. read more
