About Las Colinas
Las Colinas is a 12,000-acre master-planned business and residential district developed beginning in the early 1970s on the former Carpenter ranch. Today it is home to several Fortune 500 company headquarters along the Urban Center corridor, the DART Orange Line stations at Las Colinas Urban Center and University of Dallas, and one of the most diverse residential populations in Dallas-Fort Worth. The neighborhood has a substantial Indian, South Asian, and Muslim community, alongside long-established Catholic parishes serving Hispanic and Anglo families. Vargas-London coordinates Hindu antyesti, Sikh, Jain, Islamic janazah, and Catholic funeral Mass services with the temples, gurdwaras, mosques, and parishes that serve this area — matching each family to the venue and clergy that fit their tradition.
ZIP codes served: 75038, 75039, and 75063 — covering the Urban Center high-rises, the residential neighborhoods around Lake Carolyn and the Mandalay Canal, the Valley Ranch community north of Highway 114, and the Cottonwood Valley and Hackberry Creek gated developments south of MacArthur Boulevard.

At-need response in Las Colinas
For families in Las Colinas, our team dispatches immediately from our Dallas office at 12101 Greenville Avenue. Depending on traffic on the LBJ Freeway (I-635) and State Highway 114, our transfer vehicle typically arrives within 35 to 55 minutes of your call. Overnight and weekend response is the same — we do not wait for a shift change or morning business hours. Authorization, transfer from home or facility, and the beginning of the arrangement conference can all take place within the first hour if that is what the family needs. If timing matters for religious observance — a same-day burial in the Islamic tradition, for example, or the 24-hour window many Hindu families prefer — tell the operator when you call and we will build the schedule around that constraint.

Common questions from Las Colinas families
How long will it take you to reach us in Las Colinas?
From our Dallas office at 12101 Greenville Avenue, the transfer vehicle reaches most Las Colinas addresses in 35 to 55 minutes, depending on time of day and traffic on I-635 and Highway 114. Overnight transfers are typically at the faster end of that range. If the transfer is from a hospital, we coordinate directly with the discharge nurse so the family does not have to relay information back and forth.
Can you coordinate a same-day Islamic janazah or Hindu antyesti service?
Yes, when timing and permits allow. For Islamic burials we work with the Islamic Center of Irving and, when family prefers, with cemeteries that maintain a dedicated Muslim section. For Hindu families, we coordinate with the DFW Hindu Temple priest for the antyesti rites and with the crematory to prioritize scheduling. Texas Health & Safety Code § 716.054 requires a minimum interval between death and cremation, and county medical examiner clearance can add time; we walk each family through the realistic window before committing to a specific hour.
My loved one lived in a high-rise on the Mandalay Canal — can you make the transfer discreetly?
Yes. We coordinate with building management for service-elevator access and time the arrival to minimize lobby presence. Our unmarked transfer vehicle is standard for exactly these situations.
Do you serve Valley Ranch and the 75063 side of Las Colinas?
Yes — 75063 is part of the same service footprint as the Urban Center. Valley Ranch families frequently use Las Colinas Medical Center for hospital care and DFW Hindu Temple or Islamic Center of Irving for religious services; we coordinate with all three routinely.
What is included in the $1,750 direct cremation price?
Transfer of the deceased to our care within our normal service area, all required paperwork and permits, the cremation itself, and return of the cremated remains in a standard temporary container. Death certificates, an urn upgrade, and any witnessed-cremation observance are separately priced — every fee is itemized on the General Price List we send before you commit. See our full pricing page for the current itemized list.
