“Staff were amazing, our family was on their highest priority and they knew exactly what needed to be done for a smooth funeral. Ms. May Hsiao is outstanding, empathetic, very professional and knowledgeable about Chinese culture. She guided us thru all the funeral procedures and take care of a lot of items like death certificate, flowers, etc. On the day of the event, everything was well set up, and May was highly attentive to all of our needs. Thank you May, for all that you did, for the family!”

“May helped us during my dad’s funeral, and we are truly grateful for her support. With 28 years of experience in the industry, she is incredibly knowledgeable and provided us with invaluable guidance throughout the process. Having no prior knowledge of where to begin, we felt overwhelmed, but May patiently walked us through every step—communicating via text and calls, even on weekends and late at night. During such a difficult time, when grief weighs heavily on the family, it was incredibly comforting to have her guidance, ensuring we did the best for our loved one. More than just a professional, May was like a close friend, standing by our side when we needed it most. It was truly a blessing to have someone like May—sympathetic, knowledgeable, and trustworthy—by our side. Her attentiveness to our needs made all the difference, and we deeply appreciate everything she did for us.”

From the moment our beloved brother took his last breath to the meticulous planning of the funeral and cremation services, Daniel guided us with unwavering support and kindness. His dedication ensured that every detail was handled with warmth and love, creating a truly meaningful farewell for our brother. Words cannot fully express our deep appreciation for Daniel.

“I wanted to give my deepest appreciation to the entire Universal Chung Wah team at the Alhambra location but especially to May Hsiao. May's professionalism, attentiveness and responsiveness are above and beyond. May and the entire team showed us incredible compassion which gave us so much comfort in hard times like this. I did not even know where to start in my very first phone call to them but May carefully explained everything to me and walked me thru the process. Without her, I would be at a total loss. I am so grateful that I found them!!”

“I went to visit the day before my uncle’s memorial to test the audio and slideshow, only to discover it wasn’t working. Thankfully, Daniel was there (on his day off) to help. He was incredibly communicative and went above and beyond to ensure everything was resolved and ready for the next day. On the morning of the memorial, we had planned to meet at 8:15 a.m. for setup, but Daniel called me at 7:45 a.m. to let me know he had already arrived and was getting everything ready. That’s early, and it made all the difference! In such a challenging time, with so many moving parts, Daniel’s support and professionalism brought peace of mind. Thanks to him and the staff at Universal Chung Wah Funeral Directors, the memorial went smoothly, allowing us to honor my uncle with a beautiful service. I’m deeply grateful for his help. Thank you, Daniel!”

“非常感謝May Hsiao和她的團隊最近幫我先生的追思禮拜辦得既莊嚴又充滿懷念。May替我們設想周到,再加上她的專業精神和真誠的愛心陪我們渡過最艱難痛苦的時候。她很有耐心替我們解釋所有的過程和盡力滿足我們的需求。有任何問題她總是盡快答覆。甚至她出國度假時,也會回答我的問題。在4年前經過2位朋友同時介紹May給我,然後請她為我公公辦追思禮拜。因為她上次辦的非常好所以這是第二次請May幫忙。真是對她由衷的感謝!也謝謝她的團隊和中華殯儀館!”
