About Lakeshore Mortuary
Lakeshore Mortuary has been serving Mesa's East Valley community since 1978, when it was founded by the Shumway family; it is now corporately owned by Service Corporation International (SCI) and operates under the Dignity Memorial brand, meaning pricing and some policies reflect a large national network rather than independent ownership. The mortuary offers a full range of services including cremation, traditional burial, graveside and chapel services, veterans' honors, pre-planning, grief support, and specialty options such as scattering at sea and spaceflight memorials, all from a distinctive lakeside facility with indoor and outdoor gathering spaces and on-site catering. Pricing falls in the mid-range for a full-service provider: direct cremation starts at $2,005 and traditional burial packages average around $3,388, though costs can rise considerably with add-ons, and families should note that cremation appears to be performed off-site at a partnered facility. Customer reviews are notably strong, with a 4.9 out of 5 rating across 114 Google reviews, with families consistently praising the compassion and attentiveness of staff — particularly a funeral arranger named Lupita — though no independent BBB accreditation could be confirmed, and those seeking the lowest-cost option or a locally owned provider may want to compare against independent funeral homes in the area before deciding.

7 months agoSympathetic interactions, with customized options offered by Lupita. She took the time to demonstrate what was available, but quickly narrowed it down to what we wanted for our particular situation. Did not feel pressured or rushed, was helped in every step, generously and felt 100% supported.
