One of the hardest things to do is bury a loved one and add COVID restrictions and precautions, and it's worse! BUT, Laura and Highland Park Funeral Home made my grandmother's transition beautifully seamless. Laura and the staff were available whenever we had questions or sit with us as we processed the loss and funeral planning. The compassion, care, empathy, and professionalism was truly unmatched. The funeral planning was made easy (easier), and my grandmother's funeral was beautiful. When she was laid to rest, she looked as if she was sleeping. This review is certainly not a review anyone ever wants to write, but if you find yourself losing a loved one, Laura and Highland are both great to have in your corner.

I loved the way they handled my mom. They did a fabulous job. She looked so peaceful and at peace. I would recommend them to everyone I know
If I could give them double the stars I would. Such kindness and caring people that work there. Every step of the way they treated me and my family like loved ones. Jeff went through every detail of the arrangement and what the next steps were. I never had to worry about anything. God bless Highland Park and their staff!!
I was so impressed by the kind way in which Jeff led me through some difficult decisions. He gently made suggestions but never tried to \Up sell\ me. In fact, he offered me ways to save money. The entire staff was respectful without being morbid or stuffy - just very professional. There was not a funeral, so there were no flowers but, unexpectedly, there was a pine bough with holly sprigs laid over my husband's shroud. (It was a Green burial). For that kind of service and thoughtfulness alone, Highland Park will always hold a fond place in my heart. Cynthia Cassel
I Had a funeral here for my son in 2017 and although Hope was very nice to us during the arrangements and process. After having a funeral down the street at Larkin and Garcia Funeral Care for my uncle Antonio Portillo in 2018 I realized the huge difference! ALL of larkin and Garcia staff were so gentle and comforting they communicated throughout the entire process and made us feel like family. After experiencing two funeral homes and seeing the differences in everything! The one thing that stuck to me the most is that my son looked nothing like himself while my uncle looked like he was sleeping. And they both passed from natural causes. I wish I could go back in time and use Larkin and Garcia! I wish the last memory of my son would’ve been of him looking like he was just resting and not the image that was left of him that day. It’s been over two years and I barely received my sons death certificate that I paid for in 2017. I had to call Highland park and ask about the death certificates and after a little confusion I was told they had them and I could go pick them up. I was never emailed or contacted in over 2 years to let me know that they had them.
