Well, I can't say I wish the experience of losing a loved one to anyone. But if there's a mortuary who does their absolute best to make it as easy for the grieving family as absolutely possible, it's Clairemont Mortuary. The Mortuary Manager (Dorothy) and the Staff Associate (Linda) who helped our family were the absolute best! Dorothy and Linda helped us put on a viewing and funeral service in 9 days and were very professional, sympathetic, sensitive to our requests, always were easily reached whenever we called or e-mailed them, and took so much of the stress out of the process as they could. We called and inquired often, Dorothy and Linda were so kind and the level of service provided to us by the two of them was outstanding. You could tell from the first time we met them, that this wasn't something they just get paid to do, but that they love to help make this time for families who have lost a loved one as easy as it could be and it's evident in the way they treat the families. They were able to accommodate every request we made. Our family who was visiting from the Philippines even commented on how well a job they did with their service provided for my mom's funeral. I will gladly recommend Clairemont Mortuary to all our friends, family, and close acquaintances if they're ever in need of services after losing a loved one. I know my mom was very happy with the hard work that Dorothy, and especially Linda had given my dad, my brother, and me during this very difficult time. Kudos to Clairemont Mortuary for treating us so well this past week and a half!

Can’t recommend it. Clairemont mortuary replaces our solemn wake with appalling bitterness. Stress and devastation is the environment where Clairemont mortuary organization finds its prey. In august 2022, my mother-in-law lost her husband for over 65 years. This is when Clairemont mortuary’s service were offered by a hospice worker. Without price disclosure and obtaining a formal agreement, Clairemont mortuary practically snatched the body of the departed from a hospice. Only after that, Clairemont mortuary told, that their service will cost over $3000. Compare it to $637 (+ urn) other company charged! To ambush unsuspected widow, that lives on a fixed income, is predatory and immoral for any business, let alone funeral service. It’s not even audacity of the gross overcharging but the confidence of the impunity makes this practice especially vicious. They charged widow $635 just to release the body. Less sophisticated folks may see it as a ransom, but Clairemont mortuary gleefully called it “release fee”. Clairemont mortuary also failed to provide death causation document when being requested, thus throwing the funeral arrangement completely off the rails. What a shameful performance.

My family and I were very pleased with the overall service provided by Funeral Arranger, Ms. Jay Lopez of Clairemont Mortuary, for our Dear Brother. She understood our needs and acted quickly, within a week, while maintaining her professionalism and compassion. She was very accessible and accommodated any changes we made to the contract and special orders, to provide products and services on time. We were also very happy with the way the service package in the baseball theme turned out and the added touches she made on the layout of the service and thank you cards. Thank you, Jay, for all that you did to make the services dedicated to our Dear Brother extra special.

After the unexpected death of my mother in law we contacted the Clairemont Mortuary. Being from out of town, it was very stressful. Jennifer Berry was extremely professional, helpful and caring. She guided us along the way of what needed to be done and expected, as we were totally clueless. Her patience, prompt answers and guidance made the last journey of my mother in law flawless. We cannot recommend the Clairemont Mortuary enough.

  • Linda Quidachay

I would like to thank Frank Manzano and Linda Balcerzak for all their help with my father’s passing. They took away so much stress from my family. They are very caring when it comes to the pressure of planning a service and handling of a loved one’s remains. It can be overwhelming when you lose a loved one, so my family is grateful to have had such great care from Linda and Frank. They were awesome thru it all. You are appreciated.

  • Angelica Moreno

Thank you to the entire staff, in such in painful situation everyone was very understanding and thoughtful. Frank helped my family and me make the arrangements, Linda always so kind on the phone, Kat , Jesse and I apologize I don't recall the other gentlemans name. They were very helpful, during the service, made sure we had our moment alone to say our goodbye. At the church service again very thoughtful. Thank you

  • Douglas Wexelberg

Had a bad experience with Johnson’s in Sorrento Valley. In desperation, I called Clairemont Mortuary. Thank God for Frank. He made things very easy. Frank was experienced, he gave me my options, and let me decide with no pressure. My Mother’s burial is out of State. Frank dealt with the out of state Cemetery, and arranged transportation. Frank, and the whole office staff are the best. Thank you Franko!!!!!

I wholeheartedly recommend Clairemont Mortuary for help with the passing of your loved ones.

Unfortunately I had to use Clairemont Mortuary twice last year. Frank was wonderful in helping myself and family through very difficult times. He was caring and comforting through the entire process. The entire staff at Clairemont Mortuary did a wonderful job in very difficult times. If you need to use a mortuary I would highly recommend Clairemont Mortuary.

Searching for a funeral home is never a pleasant thing to do. Dorothy at Clairemont Mortuary was amazing. She worked with us to give my brother a wonderful service. Given his limited resources she worked with us and helped us stay within a budget. There was no pressure put on us at all. Thank you for your help in our time of need.
