I did the outside walking history tour and loved it. Very interesting and beautiful grounds, everyone was so nice. Hope to come back for the inside historic tour!

Our family has several loved ones interred at East Lawn now, we visit often and are always happy with the upkeep through the seasons and kindness of the staff. Perfect place for a walk or a picnic too. Thank you for offering such a beautiful and peaceful place, sending lots of love. 💌

The kindness and professionalism of the staff is wonderful. I chose East Lawn because of their reputation, East Sacramento grounds and historical building (go on the tours - beautiful and historic!).
Additionally, when it was time for my parents to be picked up, after they passed away, the same two amazing gentlemen wearing suits arrived quietly, respectfully and with more dignity I've ever seen taking away loved ones. They are employees of East Lawn, (NOT an agency that puts loved ones in black bags and either on a gurney or just carries the black bags out). These two gentlemen who took my parents (once in the early morning hours, the other time late at night) arrived quietly, with dignity, wrapped my parents gently in white sheets before placing them gently on a gurney then covering them with a fitted blanket. It was ceremonial, compared to "efficient." It gave me a lot of comfort to witness such care.

East Lawn and more specifically Ed Swarnes provided our family with excellent care.
- Ed never tried to upsell. He was always very clear with pricing and details and was invested in giving us the best possible experience.
- He grieved with me. He shared his own experience of losing his mom which was a very human and compassionate act in the moment.
- He explained everything in great detail and made sure that we were taken care of, not just logistically, but emotionally.
Overall, I can't say enough good things about the overall service we received from the East Lawn team and Ed Swarnes specifically. He was an angel sent from God to our family in our time of need. God bless you and thank you Ed.

I received a phone call from April at East Lawn Elk Grove and set up an appointment on a Saturday to pick up some paperwork for the columbarium I purchased for my mom’s ashes. This was my first time meeting April; she was knowledgeable, informative, and friendly. I answered all my questions about the one I purchased for my mom and another I might purchase. She is very professional! The lady working at the reception counter is also amiable and polite. The Memorial Park and all the buildings there are always kept up very well. It is beautiful and in the best condition. East Lawn Elk Grove is an excellent place for your loved one to rest in peace.

East Lawn Elk Grove's recent Holiday Remembrance event was a truly touching and well-organized tribute to loved ones. The event was made even more special by the thoughtful words and compassionate presence of Victor Sanchez.
Victor’s introductions of the musical artist and pastor were seamless and heartfelt, setting the tone for a meaningful evening. His guidance during the candle-in-the-sand ceremony was particularly poignant, creating a serene and reflective moment for all attendees.
Seeing my father’s photo included in the slideshow brought a wave of nostalgia and a sense of peace. Victor’s speech on loss and love resonated deeply, offering comfort and understanding during a difficult time.
The after-event snacks and hot apple cider provided a warm and inviting atmosphere for attendees to connect with one another and share memories.
I extend my sincere gratitude to East Lawn Elk Grove and especially to Victor Sanchez for hosting such a beautiful and well-executed event.

My father is laid to rest here. It is very peaceful and can be very calming to come sit down.
They have events such as Memorial Day, in which I attended a few in past years for my father, who is a Vietnam US Army veteran. They do a great job coordinating for families and putting up decorations like putting up these flags.
Updating my review as of March 2025: This place is still as amazing as when we laid my father to rest. I visit him often when I am able to, and the grounds are always well kept and grass cut. I am a military spouse who moves often, and when I return back to town, this is always one of my first stops back. Thank you for taking care of the many loved ones laid to rest here, including my father. I am always met with warmth.

If you're looking for a funeral home and find yourself looking through the reviews. Look no further!! This funeral home met all of our expectations and went above and beyond to meet our family needs. They were very compassionate and understanding. I hope I don't ever need their services again. However, if I do I wouldn't think twice to reach out to them. Madison was an angel sent from heaven. My son knew what he was doing when he guided us to this funeral home. His funeral service was so breathtaking 💙🙏

We visited the Garden of Honor on Memorial Day and the place was beautiful. We returned more recently to visit my Father and wish him a Happy Birthday and, yes, the place looked beautiful again. Thank you to the East Lawn staff for your dedicated service.

A beautiful expanse of green lawns and mortuaries. There is even a pet cemetery in the far right corner of the lawn. There are so many impressive monuments to appreciate. I find this place to be a very peaceful place to walk around.

The staff here were very attentive. Victor is who we dealt with and he went above and beyond to provide the best service he could. It is always difficult when having to deal with funerals but he did make it easier for my family in this very difficult time for us and for that I absolutely recommend them.

I owe a lot to this location and it's staff particularly the manager Victor Sanchez. He not only assured my family that he would be the one helping my family through the process but unlike other companies out there, he actually followed through. So whenever a loved one passed, my family and I knew just who to call. The service they offer was top notch and it made for a perfect send off for my loved ones. Victor is the sole reason I will be using this location for services in the future. He was not just professional but REAL to the point where I felt he sincerely has our best interest at heart. I truly can't recommend this location enough. Thank you East Lawn and God bless you Victor!

I'm a florist and deliver at this location often. Staff are friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Funeral home is really nice and clean. Plenty of seating area for families when they go in. It's always a pleasure delivering flowers here I feel welcomed when I deliver. Thank you, for being great at what you guys do!
