Hollywood Funeral Home and Cremation

This varies depending upon the family's wishes, their circumstances and religious customs. The funeral home will need to coordinate necessary paperwork and permits with your physician and the County before any funeral, burial, or cremation may occur. If you need an expedited service for religious or other reasons, please let them know when you first contact them.

Hollywood Forever has an onsite flower shop conveniently located in the Bell Tower near the main entrance on Santa Monica Boulevard. Flower Shop (323) 308-4784. If you are using an outside florist, provide them with the funeral home's name and address, the name of the deceased, and the time of the service.

They are placed in a climate controlled room until the family provides instruction as to how to proceed. Every step along the way they are treated with the utmost care and respect.

A funeral home provides a wide range of services, beginning with bringing the decedent into care; meeting with the survivors to make funeral, cremation, and burial arrangements; preparing the decedent for any services selected; hosting the funeral service in one of the chapels; transporting the decedent to the place of final rest; and supervising the burial service.

In Los Angeles, funeral costs range from $4,210 to $9,705, with an average cost of $5,650. Cremation Memorial costs range from $1,550 to $6,560 with an average cost of $2,825.

Mortuaries and funeral homes provide the same basic services: caring for and preparing the deceased, arranging for necessary paperwork and permits, and hosting and directing memorial and funeral services. The word choice is primarily one of emphasis and specialty. Funeral Homes employ Funeral Directors to manage and conduct services. Mortuaries emphasize their specialty in the mortuary sciences of restoration and presentation of the deceased. Technically, only mortuaries have onsite crematories; however, in present day California, 'mortuary' and 'funeral home' are used interchangeably or in combination. Hollywood Forever's funeral home can also be considered a mortuary because it has onsite preparation and onsite cremation.

The funeral home provides services for the dead and their families, including: on-call service 24 hours a day; transfer of the decedent to the funeral home; professional care of the deceased as requested by the family; consultation with the family to gather information for completing documents and arranging funeral service details; filing necessary paperwork including death certificates and permits; arranging for clergy, officiants, musicians and singers; helping the family select appropriate memorials; arranging details with the crematory and other places of disposition; providing memorial products such as memorial folders, prayer cards, guest books, online obituaries, video tributes, and Zoom broadcasts; directing funeral services in a professional manner; and assisting with post-service details including cemetery markers and monument finalization.
