Hollywood Memorial Park

"This is an excellent review thanks to the efforts of one particular grounds keeper, Giovanni. Many of my family members are buried at Hollywood, including my aunt, uncle, and one of my cousins. Today, my cousin's sister and I visited the cemetery to place flowers at her sister's and parents' grave sites. To our dismay, her parents' markers had completely disappeared. We had brought along gardening tools to spruce up the area, but these were insufficient to dig down to the hidden markers. However, Giovanni was nearby and seeing our distress offered to help by shoveling down to the hidden markers. His thoughtfulness and willingness to help turned an otherwise negative experience into a positive affirmation of kindness. THANK YOU GIOVANNI!"

"I visited Hollywood Memorial cemetery today it is BEAUTIFUL… And the employee there is AMAZING… I was crying uncontrollably and removing grass from the plot when the employee came over and cleared it all out for me & even swept it ..What a nice man what a beautiful gesture, he was working very hard with the machine. I think that’s called an excavator removing dirt, in this hot muggy day, he stopped what he was doing to come over and help me.. Thank you so so much you just don’t know what that kind gesture meant to me, I wish I would’ve got his name because he was amazing and good hearted and hard-working. It happened today, Wednesday, July 24 th at around 2 PM. Thank you so much, they are very lucky to have you working there"

"DO NOT let anyone working in the office try to intimidate you or take advantage of your grief. Take the time you need, to make the best financial decision for you, your loved one(s) and your family. Some of the workers here are very pushy and rude. I would not recommend them to anyone I know."

"AVOID AT ALL COSTS! I rarely write reviews but feel compelled to do this one so that people don't feel stressed while they are already dealing with the loss of a loved one. Management is very unorganized here. Customer service essentially ends once the balance is paid. First they hook you, then they toss you. In my case, they lost the original agreement (contract) for my mother's prepaid mausoleum, so I had to provide them a copy from my deceased mother's records at home. How does that even happen? Very unprofessional. Then, they lost the order for the crypt that I placed the week she was buried! So my mom has been buried there for months now with no name or date on her crypt. I only found out after visiting her grave. When I called, they gave me a few different stories and tried to blame me. After I called various times, they finally conceded, and I was given the run around (by Paula and Ann) that they were going to speak to the VP about fixing the issue or any type of renumeration for the troubles but no one ever called me back. Save yourself the hassle and pay a little more somewhere else if you have to because the staff/management is not worth dealing with. You are going to be stressed out while you grieve and with then, you're going to have to babysit/constantly check if things are going right."

"Visited loved ones over the holidays. Was delighted to see the park bridge was decorated nicely. We were even more surprised to see there were so many grave wreathes across the entire park, actually touching to know so many families still visit graveside at Christmas."
