    White Emerson:  beautiful glass memorial keepsake.
    Lorri D.

    I've never had to actually make arrangements or handle any funeral or burial arrangements, but I have been to White Emerson for 2 funerals and also listened to my mother over the phone, on several occasions with Paul, after losing my amazing grandmother in December 2020 during the Covid pandemic. So tender, so gently handled, and such care is given in each situation. Thank you White Emerson, for being great humans and helping and caring for those that are grieving and hurting just as you would with your own family. I felt I should give a review as I know how delicate each of the situations were handled. Thank you.... thank you.

    Grandma went to White Emerson but Rose Hills never heard again from White Emerson. .

    My grandma died in OC CA in 2018. It was the 8th relative we expected to be buried at Rose Hills together with other relatives. It was also Christmas and the family member who wrangled control of decisions stated WhiteEmersons had a family emergency and nothing could be done till after the new year. Then we were told the ashes had been buried at Rose Hills. Then a headstone was placed at my grandmas grave but grandma did not appear on the " find a headstone registry". When I contacted Rose Hills they said they are waiting for my grandmas remains. It been 2.5 yrs and she has a headstone but it says grandma died cenotaph Cenotaph means no remain to bury or buried in a different location. Why would a funeral home notify Rose Hills someone died, then not take the person there? White Emerson has denied my grandma her last wish to be buried with her humus and, siblings and her parents at Rose Hills.

    Where to even begin, I lost my best friend, my everything, my mommy on the 24th of June 2020 unexpectedly. She fought for over two hours but the doctors said there was nothing they could do. Our world came tumbling down and I have never felt more lost on this earth. The social worker quickly handed me the paperwork and asked that we take our time in deciding a mortuary as my mom passed in the hospital (PIH). I thought of rose hills given the popularity but one of the nurses suggested White Emerson. I trusted her in that moment given her sincere tone. I can't even begin to describe how thankful we are for that suggestion. The entire process, Richard, the person managing of the establishment along with Dan and Emily were a dream to work with. Richard has the sweetest voice and you can truly feel his warmth and empathy for families. The process was quick as we hoped and they were extremely accommodating despite current COVID restrictions. We had a very intimate ceremony with 25 people and they also hosted a Facebook live event for viewers at home and overseas. Price is not a factor when it comes to a loved one; however their prices are very reasonable and discreet in the sense that nothing was mentioned until after we handled everything the day of. Without a doubt, I'd recommend this place to anyone. That says a lot being such a sad, morbid time for my family and I but this place cannot go unnoticed. Thank you and many blessings to your entire staff.

    Very professional and compassionate

    White Emerson was amazing. We just had my father's services there and they bent over backwards to help you. Especially Annie D. Emerson.

    Fyi Alejandro deserve 5-Stars…read more Today I visited Rose Hills Cemetery to visit my loved ones, including my Aunt, Renee Antwine. When I arrived at her gravesite, I was saddened to find that her marker was dirty and covered with dirt and grass. I asked one of the Rose Hills employees for assistance. He told me that someone had already been called to help, but after waiting 15-20 minutes, no one came. Because I didn't feel that he was being truthful, I took a picture of the truck as it drove away. A short time later, Alejandro came over and kindly asked if we needed assistance. Ironically, he was in the same truck that had previously been there. Despite the extreme heat, Alejandro took the time to help us with kindness, professionalism, and compassion. While it was disappointing that the first employee was unwilling to assist us, I want to publicly recognize and thank Alejandro for his outstanding customer service. Employees like him make a lasting difference. Job well done, Alejandro! Lastly, Happy Heavenly Birthday to Destiny Williams, Kim Branch, and my beloved Aunt Renee Antwine on this July 27th. Though you are no longer with us, you are loved, deeply missed, and will never be forgotten. Your memories will live in our hearts forever. I must add Jonathan Lopez contacted me right away. His commitment to providing excellent customer service is appreciated. Thank you again for your acknowledgement & beautiful flowers

    To the Guerra Gutierrez Funeral Home & Team,…read more On behalf of my entire family, I want to express my deepest and most heartfelt gratitude for the care, compassion, and professionalism you extended to us during one of the most difficult and emotional moments of our lives. From the very beginning, your entire team demonstrated an incredible level of empathy, respect, and grace. The discreet and gentle way you handled the transition of my mother's body from our home was something I will never forget. It was done with such dignity, peace, and care--it felt sacred. You honored her life and our grief with silence, presence, and kindness. Every step of the process--from our first contact to the very final details--was handled with thoughtfulness, patience, and a genuine sense of compassion. In the middle of sorrow and heartbreak, your team provided a sense of calm and guidance that helped hold us together. A very special thank you to Marco, who truly went above and beyond in every way. His warmth, sensitivity, and deep professionalism were a light during a dark time. The way he supported us felt as if he were arranging his own mother's services. His care was personal, heartfelt, and deeply genuine. He made things happen for us quickly and smoothly, catering to our needs and rushing processes so we could focus on honoring and saying goodbye to our beloved mother with grace and peace. Only thing I would recommend is a better place to serve coffee to guests in the large room... & better options on coffins when renting to cremate. There are no words that could truly capture how much your service and presence meant to us, but please know that we will carry your kindness in our hearts forever. With endless gratitude, Maricela Rivera Luna & Family
