Imagine a Cremation and Burial services company run by people who actually care about you. That's Santa Cruz Watsonville Cremation and Burial Service. David and his assistants all share a common kindness and willingness to set aside "policies" and "greed" and "non-empathy" (as is the staple of every cremation/burial service company in the Monterey area that I contacted, who are downright mean and uncaring) to provide grieving survivors the peace of mind and closure you need. If you live on the Monterey Peninsula, I highly encourage driving a bit further to Santa Cruz, so that David and his team's compassion will treat you as a human being, so that your profound moment of losing a close loved one is remembered positively. If you think you can find that in Monterey, good luck. - Al Jackson (Pebble Beach, CA).
