Feedback From Our Families

Kristina Marin

Joanna was so very compassionate & kind and explained the every step of the process as they took my mom’s casket from the hearse to her crypt in the mausoleum. We had Father Lin saying final prayers for my mother prior to us witnessing the men putting her into her final resting place. It was a lovely service! Thank you all!

Josephine Mannone

I wanted to put a new stone on my parents grave, but I live in Oregon. I emailed the Italian Cemetery, they got back to me immediately gave me options, pricing and pictures and helped me with the entire process. Once I decided what I wanted, they helped me get everything done and sent me pictures once the stone was in place. It was an experience I will never forget

I recently contacted the cemetery to obtain information in a genealogy search. The staff was very helpful in answering several questions as well as directing me to articles that explained the cemetery's history. Thank you!

Denise Freedman

I don’t know how I could have had handled the death of my father without the compassion and empathy of the Italian Cemetery Staff. All of them were amazing. Especially Steve, he took the time to take us around the cemetery and give us the history. I can’t say enough of great things about the Italian Cemetery Staff.

Lauren Barranti

I love the Italian cemetary and the history and culture make it so rich and interesting not to mention the comfort I feel when visiting. Troy helped us with our arrangements and he is stellar.
