Funeral Services And Cemeteries near Itasca

“In my grief I could not ask for a better funeral home to guide me through some very hard decisions. Andrea, who had patience and kindness made things much easier than I expected. The staff at The Oak Funeral Home are all courteous professional people. We had a viewing at the Church and a Mass to follow with a private burial. From start to finish they were there guiding us and handling everything. I highly recommend this funeral home and their staff for any of your loved ones.“

“My mother prepaid, preplanned for her cremation. The ability to make a single call and know it would all be taken care of made a hard time so much easier than it could have been. I whole heartedly recommend Neptune Society. The staff was very helpful and made the whole process much easier than I thought it would be.“

“Abi and everyone were so caring and helpful from the first contact. It was like dealing with family truly.
Very professional and up front. No hidden costs just satisfaction on all counts. Thank you so much.“

“Losing a loved one is never easy whether you know it’s coming or not. You know you will forever miss them, but what I didn’t think about was how much I would miss Monica and her entire team. These individuals became so near and dear to our hearts because they were there to assist my family during the darkest part of our lives. Monica is someone I will never forget. She gets it. She gets that your mind is all over the place and you might remember a detail super late at night or the wee hours of the morning. She never made me feel bad for reaching out when I needed to. It’s beyond refreshing to do business with someone that genuinely cares about what they do, no matter what business that is. Thank you Monica, Kelly, and everyone else behind the scenes. YOU will never be forgotten.“

“Firstly, I would like to say thank you to Ted for giving my family the best services we could have had for our dear sister Angel. From the initial phone call to meeting multiple times before she passed to the very end of service. Ted and his team at Brust Funeral Home gave us everything we needed and wanted for our sister. They took over the slide show so we didnt have to worry about putting somthing together for her while we navigated the whole process. Ted was extremely accommodating to all our wishes included but not limited to buddhist services, provided extra items needed like tables and chairs, even went as far as providing security at family's request. Every single detail that they could have possibly thought of they did and I would have never imagined that a funeral home and their staff can provide so much comfort during such a hard time for our family. Ted you are living up to your family's legacy and I am very happy we chose this beatiful funeral home for my sisters last send off. Thank you and I highly recommend any families who have to deal with such losses really consider Brust Funeral home. They will go above and beyond to make sure every last wish you have is met.“

“Thank you, Lisa Tomlin, for the expert guidance you provided in helping me design my monument. Yes, we designed "My" monument. I wanted to see it before I passed. I wanted to see what everyone passing by would be looking at. (Perhaps there is too much engineer in me not to check out the details before the product is finished.) You never rushed me and carefully explained all the options, as we methodically went thru each step. The process is a bit more than I expected, since the design has to be completed on the computer before the granite is cut. Selecting the size, shape, color, lettering (style, size, depth), artwork, layout and other important items was easily done with your help and the monument turned out AWESOME!“

“They were very professional in every detail. It’s a difficult time, but they made it easier for me. I highly recommend using their services.“

“We recently had the privilege of working with Morizzo Funeral Home to say goodbye to our beloved mother, and we couldn't be more grateful for their compassion, care, and expertise. From the moment we walked in, the staff were warm, welcoming, and understanding. They took the time to listen to our needs and preferences, and created a beautiful slideshow that captured our mom's life and spirit.

The candle gift they provided was a thoughtful touch that brought us comfort during a difficult time. The entire team, especially Byron were exceptional in their professionalism, kindness, and patience. They guided us through every step of the process, answering our questions and addressing our concerns with empathy and understanding.

We highly recommend this location.“

“I would give this place more stars but, 5 is the highest. Thank you Kirsten and Elizabeth! You are the best! You have made my process a lot easier. I would recommend them to handle your loved ones!“

“The cremation society were great to my family. I was unfamiliar with the cremation process, I had never had to go through it before. Thankfully, Stephanie held my hand and guided me through the process. I was able to do this for my father. I am grateful to them.“

“Both my parents pre-planned/purchased 15+ years ago. Everything was done as expected & they even upgraded the service bulletin, guest book, thank you notes & bookmarks. They even videoed the service & put a link from the obituary when some of our relatives couldn't make it due to severe weather. Joshua & team did an outstanding job!“

“They are the best of the best!! No other funeral even comes close. All of our business was effortless allowing the family to concentrate on my mom’s passing.

God Bless Countryside and all of her employees.“

“As always, Memory Gardens was wonderful to work with for my mom’s funeral. My whole family is at Memory Gardens and there is a reason for this…respect, caring and attention to detail. For one of the saddest moments in someone’s life, they make it worry free.“

“When my brother suddenly died in February 2025, I am very grateful that we went Hultgren Funeral Home. We were looking at a different funeral home nearby but at the last minute went with Tim Hultgren. He was extremely helpful during this difficult time... in particular since my brother was coming in from elsewhere. Comparing to other funeral homes, the pricing was also very fair. I would definitely recommend.“

“Highly recommend Wheaton Memorials! I bought a monument recently from here for my father & it is incredibly beautiful. Joyce (employee), helped me with the entire process and she was extremely knowledgeable.
Joyce, thank you very much for your patience, compassion and wisdom.“

Every detail was handled with respect and kindness, and your gentle support made a heartbreaking process a little easier to bear. We will always be grateful for your dedication, patience, and the comfort you brought to our family.“

“Sometimes help can come from unexpected places.
Started with Illinois, Cook County Deaths, 1871-1998 for a 2-12-1977 death. It provided the cemetery and funeral home. Left two voice mails at the cemetery over a two-week period for grave location. No calls back. Did a search on the Archdiocese of Chicago website. No results. Phoned Archdiocese of Chicago. They searched; no results. Phoned the funeral home. Spoke with Mia who cautioned me because of the age of the record, she may not be able to confirm the cemetery. Mia phoned back. No results. I emailed her the IL Cook County Death record. She phoned the same cemetery I left two voicemails at. They told her they had no record of the burial. Mia assured me she'd continue to look. Within a few minutes, Mia phoned back with good news! Her manager, Timothy, accessed old burial records available online although not available to the public. He found the name and gravesite location at the cemetery that claimed they had no record of the burial.
Because of the great service provided by Mia and Timothy, I would be happy to recommend Sax-Tiedemann Funeral Home to family and friends.
