Honoring Every Family's Traditions

No two families honor a loved one in exactly the same way. At Mountain View, we begin by listening to your family’s wishes, then work closely with you to create a service that reflects your faith, culture and personal traditions with care and respect. We welcome families of every faith and background, including those planning a non-religious or secular celebration of life. Families seeking multicultural funeral services can count on our team to honor their traditions with compassion, respect and personalized care.

Because our funeral home, on-site crematory and memorial park are all located on one campus in Lakewood, every detail can be coordinated by one caring team. Families throughout Tacoma and Pierce County, including many from the diverse military community near Joint Base Lewis-McChord, trust us to provide compassionate guidance that honors their traditions while making every step easier for your family.
