Reviews
Funeraria del Angel Kammann holds a 4.8/5 rating on Google across 40 reviews. The Ever Loved profile includes an additional mention of staff member Kenny Lown being described as "caring and compassionate."
Positive Themes
1. Attentive, non-pressuring staff. Multiple reviewers specifically called out that staff gave families space to make decisions without feeling rushed or upsold. Monica Blanco wrote: "They were never pushy and gave us the time we needed to make hard decisions."
2. Personal attention and memory. Davina Parra noted that staff remembered her family a full year after their first visit when they returned for a second family member's services — "They saw us exactly 1 year later and they remembered us. The attention to detail and willingness to help really put our family at peace." Staff members Keith, Jackie, and Victoria were mentioned by name in reviews.
3. Handling complex and cross-border situations. Eva & Russell Micklethwaite noted that staff "think[ed] outside the box" for a unique situation, while Casandra Ruiz specifically credited staff member Jackie for her knowledge in facilitating transfer of her father's remains to Mexico: "Jackie your wisdom and knowledge helped us get my father to Mexico with the rest of the family."
Negative Reviews or Concerns
No negative reviews or complaint patterns appear in the provided data. Given that only 40 Google reviews are on record and no BBB profile specific to this Yuma location was identified in the data, the review base is relatively small. Families are encouraged to check Funeralocity and Ever Loved for any additional perspectives.
Ownership
Funeraria del Angel Kammann is corporate-owned, operating as part of the Dignity Memorial network, which is owned by Service Corporation International (SCI) — the largest funeral services company in North America, publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SCI. The Yellow Pages listing indicates the location has approximately 40 years of operating history in Yuma, suggesting the funeral home likely originated as an independent or family business before being acquired by SCI.
Families considering a corporate-owned provider should be aware that pricing, service packages, and upsell merchandise offerings may be more standardized than at independent funeral homes, and that local management operates within a national corporate framework.
Accreditations
No BBB profile specific to this Yuma, AZ location was identified in the available data. (BBB profiles found in research correspond to separate Funeraria del Angel locations in California and Texas and are not associated with this funeral home.) No additional accreditation data — such as state licensing details, NFDA membership, or awards — is available in the provided information.
Conclusion
Funeraria del Angel Kammann is a mid-range to premium provider in the Yuma market, with pricing that reflects its position within the national Dignity Memorial network. Its primary strengths are its bilingual service capability, demonstrated competence in cross-border international transfers, and a consistent track record of warm, attentive care as reflected in its reviews. Families on tight budgets should carefully review the required basic services fee, and the surcharges for weekends, evenings, and holidays before committing, as these can substantially increase the final cost of services. The relatively small number of public reviews (40 on Google) means the rating, while strong, reflects a limited sample — consulting Funeralocity and Ever Loved for additional perspectives is advisable.
