About Glendale Funeral Home

Glendale Funeral Home is a full-service funeral home located in Glendale, California, operating as part of Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral home chain in the United States — families who prefer an independently or locally owned provider may want to keep that in mind. The home offers a range of services including cremation and traditional burial arrangements, with staff members mentioned by name across reviews suggesting a consistent, relationship-based approach to care. Pricing information was not available for this summary, so families are encouraged to request an itemized price list directly, which funeral homes are required by law to provide upon request. Glendale Funeral Home holds a 4.9-star rating across 102 Google reviews, with customers consistently highlighting the attentiveness and compassion of individual staff members — Karina, Julia, Liz, and Veronica Sweeney are each mentioned by name — and several reviewers noted that staff went out of their way to make services feel personal and meaningful.
