I was so saddened to hear of Nelis’ passing. He was a good friend during the past sixty-plus years and I have many fond memories of him during our misspent youth. I will miss our occasional lunches with Vince and Stan and the late Roger Whitsell. He was a good husband, father and grandfather. My condolences to the entire Simonsen family.

"Please thank the person who prepared our father for viewing. We were very happy with the way he looked. Our great uncle was a mortician and he would have been pleased."

"Azucena (Hernandez) showed us genuine care and support and Bob (Russo) made the ceremony in the church 'a one of a kind.' It was amazing. The church ceremony was truly wonderful."

Pegah (Mazloom) actually dropped off and picked up signed documents from my home - so helpful especially now with restrictions of pandemic! Excellent care and genuine kindness from start to finish.

"Jessica, I just wanted to tell you without your care and compassion, my family and I would NOT have gotten through my loved one's death. I need to let you know that without people like you families would NOT be okay. You are a very SPECIAL person and I was blessed!!!"

"My family and I chose East Lawn to take care of my father's services, although there was another mortuary right down the street who we met with first. I'm so glad my family and I chose them over the other funeral home."

"...The remarkable part was how lovingly the staff cared for her (my mother-in-law). It's a hard thing when you have to let someone's physical being go from you, and they did it with such kindness..."

– C. Johnson

"Dennis (Early) was caring, understanding, and extremely professional. He even came to our residence to help my mother who was too weak to meet at East Lawn. Dennis remembered everything about my mother - all the way down to her favorite color and favorite flower. It was extremely touching. He made all of our accommodations and requests come to fruition. Craig (Peterson) and Dennis were beyond exceptional with their compassion and professionalism. Thank you to both!"

"Arranging a funeral for my daughter was the hardest thing I have ever had to do but the staff here made it just a little bit manageable. They were very attentive and always available for questions or concerns. I truly felt like the staff here truly cared about me and my daughter and making sure every wish I had for her and her funeral happened exactly how I wanted it. Everything they did, especially our Director Dione (Longoria) has meant a lot but the way they cared for my daughter and treated her so kindly - I will forever be grateful."
