The owners and landscaping crew are truly great people! This is one of the best family owned and operated businesses Ive ever seen. Brent and Jacque are great people who are there 100% of the time to help you through the process.

We just had a great experience with everyone at Ponte Vedra Valley Funeral Home and Cemetery. When we lost our son suddenly, they were there every step of the way to help us through the process. From the first time we walked in the door to and through the service, they were excellent. Brent, Jacque, Jim and everyone else there treated us with nothing but grace throughout the process. The service was excellent and the procession to his final resting place was powerful. The grounds are beautiful and well-taken care of. It is a peaceful place and we are happy our son is resting there now and we will

My husband died very suddenly at a young age in 2013. Brent & Jacque were exceptionally helpful and supportive of me and my children to help us make arrangements. My mother died shortly thereafter and they were excellent in their service. In the past 7 years, I have found the cemetery immaculate, peaceful and beautifully maintained. My entire family has now bought plots there because it is so well run and maintained. The Christmas memorial with votive candles on every grave is comforting.Thank you to all of the staff for your hard work.

Ponte vedra valley was a true blessing for my family in planning my daughters memorial services. They help me to pick out an urn that I would be able to love and cherish forever and picked out a beautiful memory candle in her honor. They helped me to make a funeral program I was proud of. They were supporting and caring to us in our time of need. Their facility is also unbelievably beautiful. I cannot thank them enough for all they have done for my family.

Such a beautifully manicured space! When you drive by you wouldnt think it was a cemetery, rather a beautiful entrance to a gated community. The owners are super helpful and kind. They have always answered my questions with compassion and knowledge.
