Direct Cremation in California

With direct cremation, the cremation happens without a memorial service at a funeral home, giving you time to arrange a more personalized memorial or celebration of life. Our team is here for your family 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We provide 5-star service and make the process as simple as possible so that you can focus on the things that matter most.

Google / Carol Kromer Nov 22, 2023
I was very impressed when I called the day before my husband passed away and then notified them of his passing the following day. They were available immediately and took care of everything. I would have given 5 stars except that it took a very long time to receive his ashes. I received an e-mail stating his ashes were on the way but then they actually weren't sent for over a week later. All in all, I would recommend their service though. They handled everything at a time where I literally could do nothing and for that I'm extremely grateful.

Thank you for trusting us to guide you through this process, Carol. We are honored to have served your family and glad we could offer kind and compassionate services during this difficult time. Take care.

The loss of our brother was very sudden and Tulip was very understanding and made sure we were involved every step of the way. Our family was in several different states, and they made sure our brother was brought home to us as quickly and painlessly as as possible. Thasnk you Tulip for all you did for us.

Tulip was far more helpful in taking care of my needs than I ever could have asked for. They genuinely cared and held my hand through a very difficult time for me. They also helped me understand what other things I needed to do in order to move forward with my mother’s passing. I can’t recommend them enough.

Google / Treece Dermody Nov 16, 2023
Tulip saved us over $1,800 for a cremation that was quoted, by our local Funeral Home. Unfortunately we did not have the funding for an expensive funeral. Tulip kept us up to date regularly on the process and what to expect. The reason I did not give 5 stars is that after quoting she then called to say that she did not realize where I was located and that it would be an extra $400. Other than that Tulip was very helpful and well organized.
