Allen Brothers Mortuary

Allen Brothers Mortuary, located at 435 North Twin Oaks Valley Road in San Marcos, California, is a family-owned funeral home that has been serving San Diego County with compassionate, professional care since 1964. The business was founded by the Allen family and has built a reputation as a trusted pillar of the community, helping generations of families through times of loss with personalized and attentive service. As of March 3, 2026, ownership has been transferred to Megan Comer, who brings the chapels into the Alhiser-Comer Mortuary family, ensuring that the tradition of locally owned, family-operated care continues without interruption. Pre-need policies arranged under the previous ownership remain honored and in place at both locations.

The mortuary operates two chapels: the San Marcos Chapel (FD-1378) at the main address, and the Vista Chapel (FD-1120) at 1315 South Santa Fe Avenue in Vista. Both facilities offer a full range of services including traditional funerals, cremation services, visitations, memorial services, and graveside ceremonies. The San Marcos location is temporarily closed for renovations, but services continue through the Vista chapel. Families are encouraged to contact the Vista location for immediate needs. The business provides extensive personalization options, allowing families to tailor services to reflect the unique life of their loved one, regardless of whether they choose burial or cremation.

They also provide comprehensive pre-planning services through pre-arrangement forms and educational resources to ease the burden on loved ones. A year-long daily grief support email program is available to help families cope after the funeral.
