About

Personalized funeral services

Reception area at Cypress View Mausoleum, Mortuary and CrematoryCypress View Mausoleum, Mortuary and Crematory is committed to providing families with fresh ideas and innovative ways to ensure loved ones receive a personalized tribute and that friends and family have strong personal memories that they can carry into the future.

One example of the special services we can provide: We own 1 of only 12 specially produced Harley-Davidson funeral coaches. This custom-built motorcycle is equipped for funeral services, and allows friends and fellow riders to join their loved one on a final ride. The coach can transport both standard and oversized caskets for funeral services as well as urns for cremation ceremonies.

The funeral home has a large chapel as well as the more intimate Old World Chapel for smaller gatherings. Filled with light and with a high ceiling, the large chapel can be configured for receptions, allowing us to offer one of the largest reception facilities in the area.

On-site crematory

Cremation is important in certain religions and cultures, and more and more people are choosing cremation over more traditional burial options, but most people aren’t familiar with all of their choices when it comes to cremation. You may choose a direct cremation without a funeral or memorial service of any kind; a funeral with the body present, followed by cremation; or a cremation followed by a cemetery service or a celebration of life.

Cypress View has a private on-site crematory, which means your loved one never leaves our care. The crematory is especially attractive to people of the Hindu, Sikh and Buddhist faiths, as their traditions usually involve a walking procession to the crematory.

"I cannot say enough positive things about the funeral directors and staff at Cypress View. They provided the highest level of care and concern every step of the way, and they made an extremely difficult and sad situation so much easier to navigate. I cannot thank them enough for all their help. They went above and beyond to ensure my mom's arrangem

ents were taken care of, and they took such good care of my mom and also of my family. We were treated like old friends, and that means so much to me and my family."
