Greenlawn Cemetery SW

“We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful and meaningful celebration of life for my mother. David, Chris, and Chelsie were absolutely wonderful from start to finish—caring, professional, and attentive to our needs. They were accommodating and kept us informed throughout the entire event, communicating clearly so everything ran smoothly. We originally planned for about 300 people, but more than 500 showed up to honor her. The staff at Greenlawn Cemetery SW handled the overflow with such grace. They set up extra chairs and tables, and even opened an additional room during the reception. Being able to hold the entire service and reception in one place made everything so much easier on our family during such a difficult time. So many people have reached out since to tell us it was the most beautiful and touching celebration of life they’ve ever attended. That means the world to us. Thank you, Greenlawn Cemetery SW, for taking such good care of our family when we needed it most. We are forever grateful. P.S. The dove release was such a beautiful and emotional experience. It brought us so much comfort and peace, serving as a perfect symbol that my mother is now in heaven.”

“I contacted Green Lawn to find out if they could take my mothers body to their mortuary, so that the Boston University could then procure her brain for research prior to her prepaid cremation. Devin and the staff at Green Lawn were very kind to explain everything and how this might work for us. I was very upset and frustrated by the run around I was getting from the cremation folks, and their kindness, patience, and even repetition of the details was so very helpful and reassuring. It was very important to My 100-1/2 yr old mother to have the special urn that she had picked out years ago, and to use the custom decorated California Certified alternative Cremation Container that had been prepared by her loved ones with photos, flowers, and special sentiments written on it. Green Lawn took care of these personal requests without any hesitation. I highly recommend Green Lawn for their kindness, personalized service, and professionalism for helping my family at a very tender time.”

“I had a truly positive experience working with Ms. Icela Landaverde at Greenlawn Funeral Homes. From the moment I reached out, she was incredibly compassionate and understanding. She took the time to explain all the available options, and her guidance made the entire process much easier during a difficult time. Ms. Icela was attentive to all the details, and her professionalism ensured that everything went smoothly. I felt supported and cared for throughout, and I’m grateful for her kindness and expertise.”
