What Our Clients Say
Yesterday we buried my grandmother. And we chose Angel to prepare the ceremony and resolve all issues. To say that we are satisfied with their work is to say nothing. First of all, everything was resolved quickly and
clearly, with an individual approach the agency resolves all issues related to the funeral and hospital records, so that relatives do not worry about anything. They prepared my grandmother so that it seemed that she was just sleeping. The guys from the agency who brought my grandmother on the day of the funeral were just perfect, beautifully dressed, in white gloves, spoke very intelligently, stood like soldiers during the farewell ceremony, I had the feeling that we were burying a royal person. After the funeral, they beautifully laid wreaths and flowers, expressed condolences, politely and quietly said goodbye (and not just silently left). I am incredibly glad that we contacted this agency. And I definitely recommend contacting them in such difficult times.
Вчера мы похоронили мою бабушку. И мы выбрали компанию Angel для подготовки церемонии и решения всех вопросов. Сказать, что мы довольны их работой, – значит ничего не сказать. Прежде всего, все было решено быстро и понятно, агентство с индивидуальным подходом решает все вопросы, связанные с похоронами и больничными документами, так что родственники ни о чем не беспокоятся. Они подготовили мою бабушку так, что казалось, будто она просто спит. Ребята из агентства, которые привезли мою бабушку в день похорон, были просто великолепны: красиво одеты, в белых перчатках, говорили очень грамотно, стояли как солдаты во время прощальной церемонии, у меня было ощущение, что мы хороним королевскую особу. После похорон они красиво возложили венки и цветы, выразили соболезнования, вежливо и спокойно попрощались (а не просто молча ушли). Я невероятно рада, что мы обратились в это агентство. И я определенно рекомендую обращаться к ним в такие трудные времена.

Thank you to Angel AB funeral home and special thanks to Irina, an employee of the Jurmala office, for her humane and compassionate attitude, helping with my dad's last journey..
My dad was initially taken to another funeral
home in Jurmala, where when I went to talk about further funeral arrangements, I encountered an unethical and unacceptable attitude towards a grieving person and funeral arrangements as such in many ways. I then went to talk to Angel AB Jurmala office, from which I left with a peaceful feeling that this is the right place to entrust with organizing the last farewell of such a dear loved one.
I would like to thank Irina, an employee of the Jurmala office of Angel AB, for her care and support in this emotionally difficult process every step of the way - everything went as smoothly as possible for a person in mourning. On the day of the funeral, everything was organized in such a way that I didn't have to worry or think about anything - I was able to say goodbye to my dad with peace of mind and respect. Thank you for that.
Paldies Angel AB apbedīšanas birojam un īpašs paldies tieši Jūrmalas biroja darbiniecei Irinai par cilvēcisku un līdzjūtīgu attieksmi, palīdzot ar mana tēta pavadīšanu pēdējā gaitā..
Mans tētis sākotnēji tika nogādāts citā Jūrmalas apbedīšanas birojā, uz kuru dodoties aprunāties par tālāko bēru organizēšanu, sastapos ar daudzejādā ziņā neētisku un nepieņemamu attieksmi pret sērojošu cilvēku un bēru organizēšanu kā tādu. Tālāk devos aprunāties uz Angel AB Jūrmalas biroju, no kura iznācu jau ar mierpilnu sajūtu, ka šī ir īstā vieta, kurai uzticēt sev tik mīļa tuvinieka pēdējo atvadu organizēšanu.
Vēlos pateikties par Angel AB Jūrmalas biroja darbinieces Irinas rūpēm un atbalstu šajā emocionāli smagajā procesā ik uz soļa - viss noritēja tik viegli, cik vien cilvēkam sērās tas ir iespējams. Bēru dienā viss bija noorganizēts tā, ka nebija ne par ko jāuztraucas vai jāpiedomā - varēju ar mierīgu prātu un cieņpilni atvadīties no tēta. Paldies Jums par to.
I would like to thank the Angel funeral home with all my heart for their professionalism, sensitivity and humane attitude during a very difficult time for our family.
Special thanks to Natalia for her constant availability,
patience, support and sincere participation. She was a great support during this difficult time.
Muslim traditions were also respected, which was very important to us.
Thank you for organizing a dignified and honorable farewell.
No visas sirds pateicos apbedīšanas birojam Angel par profesionalitāti, iejūtību un cilvēcīgu attieksmi ļoti smagā brīdī mūsu ģimenei.
Īpaša pateicība Natālijai — par pastāvīgu pieejamību, pacietību, atbalstu un sirsnīgu līdzdalību. Viņa bija liels atbalsts šajā grūtajā laikā.
Ar cieņu tika ievērotas arī musulmaņu tradīcijas, kas mums bija ļoti svarīgi.
Paldies par cienīgu un godpilnu atvadu organizēšanu.
