"A funeral need not be costly to be psychologically or emotionally beneficial."
Joseph Johnson, owner
Most cemeteries in California (including National Cemeteries) will require a vault or a liner to keep the ground from sinking. If a person while walking on the cemetery property sprains an ankle and a vault or liner has been used, the law reflects that the cemetery has used due care and prudence and is thus not liable; if a vault or liner has not been used, then the cemetery can be held liable.
We at Wildrose Chapel and Funeral Home understand the importance of preserving the environment. We are able to use alternative forms of body preparation that does away with embalming chemicals, thus not allowing those toxic chemicals to contaminate the earth and the water tables. With that attitude in mind, we offer Visitations, Funerals, and Graveside Services without embalming. The families we serve are so pleased with how their deceased loved one looks. Many have even stated that the deceased looks a lot more natural and relaxed without using those toxic chemicals.
Embalming is the temporary preservation of the deceased.
Embalming is not required by law. However, embalming may be necessary if you are shipping the deceased out of state or to another country.
Some religions prohibit embalming.
Our prices are approximately half the cost of the other funeral homes.
The average basic service fee through the other funeral homes is over $2,000. Through Wildrose Chapel & Funeral Home, the basic service fee is $300.
Everything on our General Price List is itemized which is very important, because if you do not use something, why should you have to pay for it.
