They did an amazing job on all of our family's needs and we have 17 family members laid to rest there (which goes to show you how great we feel about them). The Gardens is a really special place that is not a "sad cemetery" . It is an amazing place to honor and celebrate lives. The events are superb, and the staff is the absolute best with simple gestures that go a long way that other cemeteries never do. 1,000% recommend!

I met Eunice and Alan in 2019 when a friend's 16 years old child was being buried here. It was an…read moreincredibly difficult time. But Eunice and Allan were so patient, compassionate, professional. I was so touched by how much they knew about Chinese culture to make sure families feel good that their loved ones are blessed by all the good Karma. Since then, I come here every February to visit my friend's child. I always want to check in at the office to see Eunice and Alan. It always touches me that Eunice remembers the child's name, remembers my connection to the child. Their warm smile, calm and smoothing demeanor carry that genuine love and care for people in this world and next. Today, Eunice gave me her golden rabbit statue because it is Chinese New Year time. I am very touched. Thank you, Eunice, for bringing love and care to a sad occasion.

I would like to share with everyone the terrible experience I had on October 31, 2025 while…read morevisiting Stanetsky during the funeral of my brother in law. The gathering for the mourners was reserved at Stanetsky funeral Home between 9:45-10:30 am on October 31. The funeral must be taking place at 11am at the Baker St. Jewish Cemetery. But instead of waiting in the Funeral Home until 10:30 the service organizer gave the order to leave funeral home at 10:10! As the result of this disrespectful action to the grieving people many friends and relatives that came at the right time to the Funeral Home missed the gathering and had the problems to find our procession... I found this absolutely insulting to the mourners. I found this problem only after our funeral procession was on the middle way to the cemetery when my friends started to call me and ask where are you?. I have a question for the director of this Home and for the organizer of this funeral: Is it my job as a mourner to check the timekeeping? Why did we not stay until 10:30 as agreed and pay you with a lot of money for that? Do you have a heart and respect for the mourners??? Are you working in the right business? Why did you give the order to leave home before time for 20 minutes????? Because of this insulting action to the mourners, we came to the cemetery ahead of time.! We supposed to stay on the cemetery under very bad weather conditions and wait rabbi there about 30 min!!!!!! until he comes. Rabbi service was also sooooooo bad that all of us could not wait until he stops talking.

The death of a loved one is a time of deep distress and Arthur was wonderful in the way he worked with me and our family. I also want to note that I live in Austin, TX, so some of the coordination was done on phone/text/email. We had a Hindu religious ceremony and services and Arthur assisted ably with that. (we located the priest). The facilities in the Magni funeral home are updated, dignified, modern, and graceful.
