“Jasmine Youngblood was very helpful in assisting us in exchanging our double niche for a triple niche so that we could have our daughter’s ashes put in our niche as she unexpectedly passed away recently. She was very patient with us as we requested pictures of where the new niche would be in comparison to where ours previously was. She has been very helpful with all of our questions which is greatly appreciated during this difficult time.“

“Our family has used Hillside for the past 8 years for multiple loved ones. The staff are kind, compassionate and real people who genuinely care about you and your family and gently guide and support you through the planning process and all throughout the services. I would not use anyone else. Connie, you are a gem and have passed on the most beautiful qualities you have on to your lovely daughter and also to your amazing grandson. Thank you again for everything. Nicole B.“

“Rick made an extremely difficult time more bearable. He was there offering support and advice through every step (even with a little added humor). He definitely went above and beyond. All the special gifts and remembrances continued to come weeks after the funeral. My family really appreciates every thought and effort that was put into the funeral planning. We put together a funeral in two days on a Sunday, complete with military presence of the Marines and honor guard. Rick made sure that happened for my dad and for our family. He will never know how much that meant to all of us. I could go on and on. But the bottom line is Rick and Fagen Miller in St. John Indiana is the best. I would not go anywhere else. I 100% recommend them.“

“I give high praise to Cage Memorial. In 2023 they handled my mother's funeral service, navigating a complex process. She lived in Atlanta, GA with a family member, until her death. Then we had her remains sent back to Chicago for interment. Cage Memorial worked with a local Atlanta funeral home to bring our mother home to Chicago and then arrange the usual and customary funeral arrangements. They were patient in dealing with our small family and navigating the requests of the three family members involved in making the arrangements.

In 2025 our family decided to move our grandmother from a remote south side Chicago cemetary to the same location as her children. Yet again, this was a complex process, requiring special permits from the city and coordinating with the original cemetary to move our grandmother. These transfers only take place May to September, just to complicate things even further. Cage was so professional in their handling of the challenges in this process. They kept things simple for the family who do not live in Chicago, communicating via text, email and offering digital documents for signature. The family couldn't be there on the day of transfer, but Cage kindly took photos of the procedure.

I have the highest regard for Cage Memorial and recommend them for you funerary needs. The quality of care and value of their service was high.“

He gave us great information on things that will need to be done after the funeral and said we could call him anytime which we did. I thought that was wonderful. He had made this very sad event easy and stress free. The service and the flowers were beautiful. He helped with every detail. I would highly recommend him to everyone.“

“From the very first call, Ms. Holt put my heart at ease and guided us through planning my mother’s homegoing with such care. She was patient, kind, and professional — even with our last-minute changes. And when we somehow forgot the casket spray, Ms. Holt graciously told us that she would get one for us on the house. My mother looked beautiful, and everything was handled with love and respect. The homegoing service was truly heartfelt. It was a pleasure doing business with W W Holt Funeral Home.
