About Castro Valley sympathy

How Castro Valley sends sympathy flowers.

A Castro Valley funeral almost always has two addresses, and they are rarely in Castro Valley. The valley is unincorporated county land with parishes, a hospital and a boulevard but no burial ground of its own, so families follow the road out. Castro Valley Boulevard feeds into Foothill, Foothill changes its name to Mission at the Hayward line, and Mission then carries you past Holy Sepulchre Cemetery at 26320 Mission, the Catholic ground of the Diocese of Oakland, then out to Chapel of the Chimes Hayward at 32992 Mission. The closest burial ground to any 94546 address is not on that road at all: Lone Tree Cemetery sits above Fairview on Fairview Avenue, a few minutes down from the valley's south edge, nonsectarian and on an exposed slope. Northward, many families use San Leandro and Oakland instead - Santos-Robinson Mortuary at 160 Estudillo Avenue in downtown San Leandro, or the Piedmont Avenue grounds in Oakland, where Mountain View Cemetery runs up the hill on an Olmsted plan and Chapel of the Chimes occupies Julia Morgan's building next door, with St. Mary Cemetery on Howe Street a short way off. For a veteran the interment is often at Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno, which puts a bridge or the whole south bay between the family and the flowers, on a schedule the cemetery sets rather than the family. So when you order, say which of the two the flowers belong to - the ten o'clock chapel, or the burial that follows it. A funeral director will carry flowers from a chapel to a hearse without being asked. Nobody can bring them back up the hill afterwards.

Delivery details to prepare

Delivery destinations in Castro Valley.

Lone Tree Cemetery, Fairview Avenue, Hayward

The closest burial ground to Castro Valley, a few minutes up Fairview Avenue from the valley's south edge. Nonsectarian and on open slope - afternoon wind means easel work needs weighting and tall pieces need a heavy base. Committal windows are set by the cemetery.

Holy Sepulchre Cemetery, 26320 Mission Boulevard, Hayward

The Diocese of Oakland's Catholic ground, straight down the road the boulevard feeds into - Castro Valley Boulevard to Foothill, Foothill to Mission. The usual burial destination for families whose funeral Mass was at Our Lady of Grace or Transfiguration.

Chapel of the Chimes Hayward, 32992 Mission Boulevard

Farther out the same Mission Boulevard corridor, with chapel services and interment on one site. Gigi's Florist on Redwood Road, the only shop inside the valley, has the shortest run down Foothill to this stretch of road.

Santos-Robinson Mortuary, 160 Estudillo Avenue, San Leandro

The nearest full mortuary chapel north of the valley, in downtown San Leandro. Kathy's Floral at 15954 Cambrian Dr works from 94578, the San Leandro ZIP that abuts Castro Valley's west side, 4.6 miles from the centroid.

Eden Medical Center, 20103 Lake Chabot Road

The valley's hospital, up Lake Chabot Road off the boulevard. Sympathy and palliative deliveries stop at the main lobby desk and travel up only where the unit permits flowers, so name the patient as the chart would and add the unit. Intensive care often accepts none.

FAQ

Castro Valley flower delivery FAQs.

Which funeral homes and cemeteries near Castro Valley do you deliver to?

The ones the valley actually uses, and most are over the line. South, down Foothill as it becomes Mission Boulevard: Holy Sepulchre Cemetery at 26320 Mission, the Diocese of Oakland's Catholic ground, and Chapel of the Chimes Hayward at 32992 Mission. Closest of all, up Fairview Avenue above Fairview, Lone Tree Cemetery. North: Santos-Robinson Mortuary at 160 Estudillo Avenue in San Leandro, and in Oakland the Piedmont Avenue grounds - Mountain View Cemetery, Chapel of the Chimes - plus St. Mary Cemetery on Howe Street. West, across the bay, Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno, for military interments. In the valley itself, funeral Masses run at Our Lady of Grace on Somerset Avenue and at Transfiguration on East Avenue.

What is the nearest cemetery to Castro Valley, and how does a graveside delivery work?

Lone Tree Cemetery, up Fairview Avenue on the hill above Fairview, is the closest ground to the valley - a few minutes from the south edge of 94546. Graveside delivery there is different from chapel delivery in two ways. The cemetery sets the window, not the family, so flowers usually go to the office or to the tent before the committal rather than to a graveside with nobody standing at it. And the site is open hillside: wind comes up off the flats through the afternoon, so easel work needs weighting and a tall arrangement needs a wide, heavy base. Give us the committal time and the section or plot name if the family passed it on.

The family asked for donations instead of flowers. What should I send?

Respect it at the chapel and make the gift they named - no spray, no ribbon, nothing at the service. Then wait, and send something to the house. A week later, when the relatives have flown home and the casseroles have run out, a plant delivered to the family's own address in 94546 or 94552 is welcome in a way a funeral arrangement never is, because it arrives in the quiet part instead of the crowded part. A compact white and green arrangement works the same way. Put the sender's name and one plain line on the card, and if the household has a cat, say so, because lilies are toxic to cats and are best left out entirely.

I live out of state and need to send flowers to a Castro Valley address. What do you need?

The street address and the ZIP, and the ZIP matters here more than in an incorporated city. Castro Valley is unincorporated Alameda County: 94546 covers the flat bowl and the boulevard, 94552 the canyons and hill streets, and along the edges the postal city flips to Hayward or San Leandro with no visible change on the ground. Cherryland, Ashland, Fairview and San Lorenzo blur into the valley as well. Give us a mobile number for whoever is at the house, since a grieving family is in and out all day, and name the chapel separately if flowers are going to a service instead of a home.

What should a sympathy arrangement for a Castro Valley home look like?

Smaller than people expect, and built to be set down and forgotten about for a day. White and green is the safe register - chrysanthemum, stock, lisianthus, white roses, eucalyptus - in a vase the family does not have to find a home for. Keep it low: the surfaces it will sit on are a kitchen island or a hallway table already covered in paperwork. Skip heavy fragrance in a house where people are sleeping badly, and skip lilies outright if there is a cat. If the household is Chinese, white and yellow chrysanthemum work is the convention rather than mixed color, and if you are unsure, one line in the notes lets the designer choose correctly.

Can you deliver to Eden Medical Center or to a hospice at home in the valley?

Yes to both, with different handling. Eden Medical Center at 20103 Lake Chabot Road is the valley's own hospital, up the hill off the boulevard; deliveries stop at the main lobby desk and go up only if the unit allows flowers, so name the patient exactly as the chart would have it and add the unit if you know it. Intensive care frequently takes none at all. For hospice at home - which is where most of these deliveries in Castro Valley actually go - send a small, unscented arrangement and a mobile number, and expect the door to be answered by a relative rather than the patient. In both cases, low and compact beats tall.
