Ave Maria Memorial Chapel

Ave Maria Memorial Chapel is owned and operated by the Carroll family, who has been serving the Watsonville community for 72 years. The funeral home is housed in a 9,804-square-foot Spanish-style building transformed from a Victorian home into a funeral home in 1941. It was previously known as Whites Funeral Home and Davis Memorial. The facility features two arrangement rooms, three visitation rooms, and a reception room, conveniently located in downtown Watsonville, 85 miles southwest of San Francisco International Airport and 30 miles north of Monterey Bay. The staff is dedicated to helping families reduce stress and confusion during difficult times while assisting with funeral arrangements, respecting that every life is unique and every funeral should be too.
