βIβm truly grateful for the compassion California Cremation & Burial provided during such a difficult time. Bree was especially amazing β patient, comforting, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. She explained everything at any time, and made sure we never felt rushed or overwhelmed. The whole team was super kind and their welcoming spirit made the biggest difference. I highly recommend them to anyone needing guidance and compassion during a loss.β

βAside from grieving the loss of my brother, I wanted to write a very positive review about CA Cremations and Burial. The staff, the SERVICE and Chapel were all so amazing, very attentive and helped us in making a beautiful service for my brother. Very well priced as well. Since this was our first time planning a funeral, Briana helped us every step of the way. She is such a warm, inviting person that made this process very easy, especially since we were all grieving. And even after the funeral, she has helped us with all questions and concerns. If youβre looking for a beautiful chapel to honor your loved oneβs memory and expect a high level of service, please consider CA Cremations and Burial. They have 2 locations and we chose the El Cajon one. Thank you for your services. -Maurissaβ
