Funeraria Del Angel

Funeraria Del Angel & Valley Memorial Gardens, located at 3611 North Taylor Road in Mission, Texas, is a distinguished funeral home and cemetery serving the Rio Grande Valley with compassion, care, and a rich history of community service. Since the early 1950s, Valley Memorial Gardens has provided a serene final resting place for local families. In the mid-1990s, the funeral home joined the Dignity Memorial network, the largest provider of funeral, cremation, and cemetery services in North America. This affiliation enabled significant upgrades to both the funeral home and cemetery. Funeraria Del Angel itself was built in 2005, just north of the cemetery office, and underwent a major remodeling in 2016. The renovations included an exterior facelift, the addition of a second chapel on the north side, and a wing that unites the funeral home and cemetery teams under one roof.

The funeral home offers two beautifully appointed, non-denominational chapels. The Chapel of Remembrance seats up to 175 guests and features five stained-glass windows, a raised ceiling, and chandelier lighting. The Chapel of Serenity, located near the main entrance, seated up to 150 guests and offers traditional pew seating. Both chapels are wheelchair accessible, with private foyers and hospitality rooms for family gatherings. Additionally, the funeral home provides four arrangement rooms and a main office for comfortable, private consultations.

Funeraria Del Angel offers a full range of services, including traditional funerals, memorial services, cremation coordination with the local Heavenly Grace crematorium, and personalized tributes. The staff is experienced in serving the Hispanic, Catholic, and Christian communities, providing bilingual personnel, extended visitation hours, in-home visitations, family rooms, and assistance with transfers to the country of origin. The funeral home also hosts veterans’ funerals in cooperation with the VFW and features the Garden of Glory, a tribute area with a mural depicting the five branches of the U.S. military.

Valley Memorial Gardens is a scenic memorial park spread over 50 acres, with mature trees, beautiful landscaping, four mausoleum complexes (the latest completed in 2016), niche walkways, private estates, and cremation gardens. The cemetery is divided into more than 30 named sections, such as the Garden of Prayer and the Last Supper. White ranch-style fencing borders the entire perimeter. The staff maintains excellent grounds through ongoing improvements, including a sprinkler system to combat the hot Texas summers.

Beyond its facilities, Funeraria Del Angel is deeply committed to the community. It donates to organizations like Mujeres Unidas, supports local high schools, and participates in the McAllen Chamber of Commerce and various walk/run events. The funeral home offers pre-planning options, low-interest payment plans, and a 100% service guarantee. Families are welcome 24/7, and the staff is dedicated to providing personalized, compassionate care during difficult times. Whether planning a simple cremation or a full funeral, Funeraria Del Angel & Valley Memorial Gardens ensures every life is honored with dignity and respect.
