Our Unique Approach
Sacred Tidings Holistic Funeral Care provides a unique approach to end-of-life services that embraces a connection to nature and holistic principles. Recognizing that each life is a journey, our services are tailored to reflect the personal values, beliefs, and spiritual leanings of the departed and their families. Our goal is to honor and respect not just the physical aspects of death, but also a person's feelings and the spiritual facets that encompass a person's being. With compassionate care and guidance, we seek to create meaningful and personalized experiences that facilitate healing, closure, and the celebration of life.
Dedicated to holistic practices, Sacred Tidings Holistic Funeral Care ensures every detail is given careful thought; even our products are thoughtfully curated. Talk to us about alternatives to traditional burial that incorporate elements that nourish the whole self and foster a profound connection between the cycle of life and death.
Coupled with our wellness-focused after care and community events, we aspire to create a nurturing environment that supports our clients through their time of loss while promoting holistic wellbeing. At Sacred Tidings, we believe in honoring your loved ones in a way that respects the interconnectedness of all life.
For those with pre-arrangements under our previous name of Chapel of the Chimes Funeral Home, we are still the same great team - just with some new offerings. Your pre-arrangements and standard of excellence remain unchanged!
Our adjacent facility, Chapel of the Chimes Cemetery, remains the same.
Alsatia Zenor
Alsatia is one of Santa Rosa’s most beloved funeral professionals. As the primary arranger and prearrangement counselor at Sacred Tidings Holistic Funeral Care and Chapel of the Chimes Cemetery, she always has the needs of her community at the forefront. She assists families before, during and after a loss and brings her kindness and compassion to every interaction.
Alsatia loves to take care of people, plants, and animals. She is always learning and engaged in some form of personal growth.
We love her for her attention to detail, collection of interesting eyeglasses and her excitement over her newest plant friend.

Born and raised in the Bay Area, Karen aims to provide holistic death care to those who, like her, are looking for a model slightly different than the traditional funeral home. She is grateful to be in a position to serve the community of Sonoma County in a way that reflects the individual nature of the residents.
