The staff was very helpful. Especially Amelia Perez who guided us through every step of this process. I would have been lost without her help. We are very lucky to have had compassionate people by our side. Thank you

Services
The property combines a funeral home with a century-old cemetery spanning multiple sections developed across different eras. Two chapels provide service space, while reception areas accommodate post-service gatherings. The facility includes a coffee lounge and is pet-friendly. Cemetery grounds include two mausoleums: the Chapel of Peace Mausoleum with indoor and outdoor interments featuring glass niches for personal artifacts, and the Serenity Mausoleum for outdoor entombments with family spaces. Sections 11 and 12, added in the early 2000s, contain cremation gardens with private columbaria and family estates marked by a large angel-and-dove statue.
The funeral home emphasizes personalized service design, incorporating specific details of a person's life into ceremonies. Examples from their service history include engraved pencils for a carpenter, mariachi bands at graveside services, and themed elements like bluebird urns or color-coordinated cupcakes.
Funeraria del Angel Buena Vista operates from 125 McDavitt Boulevard in Brownsville, positioned directly on the premises of Buena Vista Burial Park. This co-location allows families to arrange funerals, cremations, and burials without transferring between separate facilities. The funeral home opened January 4, 1996, in Brownsville's historic downtown area, while the cemetery itself traces back more than 100 years to the early 1900s.
The facility specializes in serving the Rio Grande Valley's diverse communities, with particular expertise in Latino and Catholic funeral traditions. Extended and overnight visitations are offered at no additional cost, accommodating cultural practices common in Mexican funeral customs. The property serves Brownsville and surrounding Cameron County communities including South Padre Island, Port Isabel, Los Fresnos, Los Indios, Rancho Viejo, and Olmito.
The location near the U.S.-Mexico border shapes its service approach. Staff accommodate Spanish-speaking families, and the facility's design and service offerings reflect the region's cultural composition. The cemetery's oldest sections feature large headstones, crosses, and religious figures among mature trees, while newer sections added in the early 2000s offer more open landscaping with flat markers.

Even though we had already purchased my mother’s in law plot, we still needed the inner and the outer container and I am please to say that your representative, Emily, was extremely helpful ! Thank you
During one of the most difficult times of my life, Del Angel Funeral Services provided my family and me with compassion, professionalism, and genuine care. The entire process was handled with respect and sensitivity, which brought us comfort when we needed it most. I am especial...
I want to sincerely thank Ari Puente, Amber and their team for their incredible support during a very difficult time. They helped us with my Dad funeral. Their kindness and dedication did not go unnoticed, and I am deeply grateful for all they did.
I want to compliment Isabel, one of their representatives who was just outstanding with us. She helped us with a number of items to complete our pre-arrangements for our mausoleum. She is a very hard -working woman with a very friendly and courteous attitude! We are very grateful...
