The Gardens operates a state-of-the-art crematory facility at 1835 S Lewis St in Anaheim. The on-site crematory features latest technology and rigorous safety measures. A dedicated viewing room accommodates small, intimate life celebrations and memorial services with space for catering arrangements. The room includes modern amenities: flat-screen TV and DVD player for video tributes. The facility is open for tours by request, reflecting their transparency commitment.
The Gardens positions itself as a simplified, affordable alternative to traditional funeral homes, focusing exclusively on cremation and related memorial options. All arrangements for viewings and witness services are coordinated through partnering funeral homes, who then interface with The Gardens for facility details.
The Gardens Crematory operates from its Anaheim location as the largest crematory in Southern California, serving both the public and funeral homes across five counties: Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, San Bernardino, and Riverside. The business has remained family-owned and operated for over four decades, with Chito and Cheryl Marquez listed as owners. Lauren Williams serves as Chief Operations Officer, and Chris Brown as President of Operations.
The facility emphasizes transparency through on-site viewings, witness cremation options, and facility tours. Their operational model focuses on efficiency to maintain competitive pricing without outsourcing—the on-site crematory ensures loved ones remain in their care throughout the entire process. The business also offers pick-up and delivery services for added convenience.
