Honoring Sikh Funeral Traditions in Sacramento & Roseville

Dignified Care Rooted in Faith and Seva

At Sierra View Funeral Chapel & Crematory, we are honored to support Sikh families in observing the sacred traditions that guide the journey from this life to the next. With deep respect for Sikh values—including equality, humility, and service—we are committed to providing a thoughtful and reverent farewell for your loved one.

Serving Sacramento, Roseville, and nearby communities, our team is here to help ensure every aspect is handled with integrity, care, and full alignment with Sikh beliefs.


Supporting Sikh Families with Respect and Sensitivity

At Sierra View, we work closely with families and local gurdwaras to coordinate the details in a way that reflects your wishes and values.

We can assist with:

  • Timely transportation and respectful preparation of the body, dressed in clean, traditional clothing
  • On-site gathering or visitation with the option for scripture recitation or silent reflection
  • Arrangements for Kirtan Sohila, Ardas, and other key prayers before cremation
  • Coordination with Sikh spiritual leaders for involvement during the ceremony
  • Respectful cremation services, aligned with Sikh principles of dignity and humility
  • Ashes return and support for the immersion (visarjan) in a body of water, if desired

Our role is to serve—not direct—so that you and your family may focus on what matters most: honoring the one who has passed in accordance with Gurbani and Sikh Rehat Maryada.


Cremation Services with Integrity and Honor

Cremation is the traditional method of final disposition in the Sikh faith. At Sierra View Funeral Chapel & Crematory, we provide on-site cremation so that your loved one remains in our care from beginning to end. We honor Sikh customs and provide a peaceful space for:

  • Recitation of Gurbani or silent meditation at the start of cremation
  • Family presence, if desired, during the initial cremation process
  • Coordination with local gurdwaras for Bhog and Antim Ardas services following cremation
  • Guidance for Sehaj Paath, Akhand Paath, or other post-cremation observances

Our team welcomes your direction in observing the practices that are meaningful to you.
