Tyler and the rest of the staff at Bobbitt Memorial Chapel was infact a great place to have our loved one be taken care of by them. My husband Lost his sister (my sister inlaw) On FEBRUARY 2nd of 2021 (Not do to Covid-19) And Bobbitt Memorial Chapel brought her into their care as soon as we signed the paperwork. Tyler was such a great funeral director from beginning to end, he made sure we were involved in the whole process and was very very attentive with all and every questions we had or needed him for.I Highly recommend this place and if i could give a 10 star review i would!!!.. THANKS AGAIN TYLER!!

Bobbitt Memorial is amazing! I spoke to Ryan on my first call and realized I did not need to call any other services. Unfortunately I do not reside in the same area where my mother passed away and I looked for a mortuary service nearby San Bernardino and I am so glad I called them. Being an only child, it has been up to me to arrange EVERYTHING. I have never done this before and Ryan's guidance has been above and beyond with explaining the processes in every aspect of it. I was worried about being taken advantage of, like I had read about in reviewing other companies, and that is not these guys. Their pricing is on their website, so it's all upfront and transparent. I have received, and still receiving, nothing buy compassion and detailed guidance through this extremely difficult process. I cannot recommend them enough for those going through the same process as me. Ryan feels like part of the family with his demeanor and sensitivity and I could not be more grateful and thankful. Thank you Bobbitt, and most especially Ryan.

10/10, highly recommend I lost my mother on January 24, 2022. From the initial consultation call through internment, the staff at Bobbitt Memorial Chapel handled everything with such care and respect. (I will admit, I asked my dad to call around and find somewhere closer to his home, or to my mother's internment site. I'm glad he ignored my request.) After experiencing first hand how expensive funerals can be out of state, I was pleasantly surprised to see Bobbitt had reasonable pricing and several options to work with different budget tiers. I also love that they work with local florist shops. Ryan worked with our family to check off everything on my mother's Must Have lost for her final arrangements. Heshowed extreme care in getting everything just right. Tyler was with Ryan on the day of my mother's mass, and the two gentleman did everything perfectly.
