East Bay Man Speaks Out After Father's Remains Found in Hayward Warehouse

But the weeks went by, it was the end of January 2022, Robinson said that his calls and text messages to the owner of Ocean View Crematory in Hayward were ignored.“The police department informed my sister informed my sister that approximately 17 other families had already filed similar claims against this individual,” Robinson said.

Not only was it hard to get a hold of the business, Robinson told NBC Bay Area that he couldn't find the crematory, the address on his receipt didn’t match.“I walk into the gentleman’s office and there's at least 10 other boxes of remains sitting on his desk, he's sitting there smoking a cigar, extremely cavalier about the situation, disrespectfully so,” he said.

Robinson later learned there that was no death certificate and added the county records office had no connection with the business.The Alameda County Sheriff’s Office said that six bodies and 154 cremated remains—dated back to 2013—were found in a warehouse linked to Oceanview Cremations.Five bodies have been identified—the 6th has a tentative identification.
