“Colette has been a pleasure to work with during a confusing and emotional time. Her kindness and availability have been very appreciated, and she was willing to share knowledge and process information when I new nothing. I would recommend her and CCI to any and all.“

“My family has went through Friedrich’s Funeral Home for the past three loved ones we’ve lost. They were extremely professional, courteous, supportive, and just downright amazing. But this last passing, meant more to me than anything, as it was my father we were laying to rest…
So I was much more involved in this entire process than ever before, and was there to see firsthand, how much a funeral home actually takes care of when it comes to the passing of a loved one… there is so much you all do, so when it’s done right and just beautifully executed- you can’t help but to feel so unbelievably grateful to those in this field.

Friedrich’s Funeral Home- THANK YOU. There are truly no words that I can express to emphasize how grateful I am to all of you for the outstanding services provided.

Joe, you have been wonderful to our entire family for years now, to the loved ones we’ve lost. You may not remember us specifically, and that’s ok- were fully aware that this business is never ending- and unfortunately people die everyday… it is a never ending cycle for you all and it must be tough at times… but I personally still wanted to extend my gratitude to you specifically. My family and I will forever remember your kindness and the exceptional services provided to our family during the most difficult time of our lives.

Highly recommend Friedrich’s Funeral Home to take care of your loved one. I assure you- you will not be disappointed.“

“We just had our familys’ third service at Cumberland in the last 20 years. Thank you to Steve and Bob (and team), for your compassion and professionalism while we said goodbye to our grandmother Czesława. Everything was perfect.“

“I am very grateful to Lisa from Peter Troost office in Palatine for her help in creating a monument for my mother's gravesite. Lisa is very professional and knowledgeable. She explained in great detail how the whole process of monument construction happens at Peter Troost, informing me of all the timeframes and giving a good advice about when the initial planning should be done, so the company will be able to finish everything in a timely manner.
Lisa took a lot of time letting me choose just the right graphics and texts. I changed my mind at least twice, and each time Lisa had another meeting with me at the time that was convenient for me, patiently listening and helping me with changes. I never felt rushed or pressured in our meetings.
I also appreciate Lisa's support and sensitivity whenever we talked about my late mother. It is very important to feel understood and to be treated with respect and kindness that Lisa always showed me.
The monument came out beautiful, just how I envisioned it.
I highly recommend Peter Troost company and especially Lisa Tomlin from their office in Palatine.“

“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.“

“Excellent staff and manager, who know what they are doing and dedicated to helping people going thru very difficult times, grieving the loss of a loved one. They went above and beyond and paid attention to every detail. They answer the phone right away and are very helpful. I highly recommend
Glueckert Funeral Home.“

“The people at Grove Memorial Chapel have handled everything for us with regard to the service and follow up burial. They have answered all our questions and provided leadership for us. These are the qualities needed at a time like this.“

“The funeral director (Emily) and all the staff were very understanding and helpful. We were very happy with the service they provided during my husband’s wake and memorial.“

“I had a truly positive experience with Geils Funeral Home in Bensenville during such a difficult time. The staff was incredibly communicative from start to finish, always keeping me informed and answering any questions I had with patience and care.

They made what could have been a very overwhelming process feel simple and manageable. Their kindness, professionalism, and understanding meant so much to me and my family. Everything was handled smoothly, and I always felt supported throughout.

I’m very grateful for the way they took care of my father and for the compassion they showed us. I honestly wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.“

“Our family entrusted the fine owners at Ryan Parke for the wake & funeral services for our late mother earlier this year and came away impressed with every aspect of the arrangements. We were debating between a few other recommended funeral homes in the Park Ridge area, but the close working relationship (and proximity) that Ryan Parke has with St Paul of the Cross church is what sealed our decision. The facility is charming; the staff were attentive and detail oriented on wake & funeral days; and every single piece of feedback from family & friends after the services were nothing but glowing about how our late mother was handled with dignity.

Nothing but 5 star compliments to Rocco & Bob for such amazing service during one of the coldest days of this past winter. Will be recommending them to anyone who needs funeral & wake services in the area. Nothing but the best!“

“I am writing to express my heartfelt appreciation for Phillip Hernandez. He is truly one of the kindest, most helpful, and caring individuals I have ever met. Throughout a difficult time for my family, Phillip consistently put us at ease, offering unwavering support and understanding whenever we reached out—day or night.
His patience and compassion are qualities I deeply admire. I can honestly say I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my funeral needs. Phillip’s dedication and kindness have made a lasting impression on us, and I am immensely grateful.
Thanks to him, we feel confident and at peace knowing that our future funeral arrangements are in good hands. I am optimistic about the support we will receive from Montclair-Lucania Funeral Home because of Phillip’s exceptional care.“

“I’ve had two funerals at Davenport Funeral Home’s Lake Zurich location, and both experiences were handled with exceptional care and professionalism. Each service was thoughtfully tailored to honor our loved ones in a meaningful and personal way.

Randi and her team were truly outstanding. They provided comfort, compassion, and steady guidance through every step of the process. During such difficult times, their support made an incredible difference for my family.

I’m deeply grateful for the level of attention, respect, and empathy they showed. I would highly recommend Davenport Funeral Home to anyone in need of these services.“

“My family can't say enough about how well Countryside handled my mother, Dorothy's final needs. The service went off flawlessly. The administrative staff was readily available and returned all my calls promptly. Kris, who handled the pre-arrangements, did a superb job, and lastly I can't say enough about the funeral director, John, who coordinated the service, thank you. My family and I are extremely grateful for the kind, compassionate service you provided.“

“What a wonderful experience at Memory Gardens. Eeryone was so caring and loving. They were really compassionate“

“Everyone at Rago Brothers was so helpful and kind making a very difficult time less stressful. They were very attentive and helped with every detail.“

“On behalf of family members, I cannot thank the staff of Smith-Corcoran enough for their utmost professionalism, empathy and attention to every detail for the arrangements for my beloved wife of 50 years Pat. Starting with Karen on February 18th, my wife & I were able to plan for what we knew was coming. Karen and other staff members never missed a beat in planning, mainly with Pat, her visitation, her funeral and her entombment. During a very difficult time, Smith-Corcoran made our “sad days” worry free and stress free. Words cannot express our sincere gratitude for their efforts.“

“Maria and Scott did a great job with our Mother. Meeting was great and very thorough. Talked about several options for every aspect of the wake and funeral. This was our 4th funeral at Belmont Funeral Home.“

“The grounds are nicely maintained. When visiting Ridgewood, there is a feeling of peace and serenity. If there is a problem with an existing grave marker, the office is sensitive and responsive in caring for any issue. The entire office staff is pleasant to work with,; without exception. They went above and beyond to hunt down the burial plot of one of our fallen Korean War heroes, whose information was entered over 75 years ago and was not seemingly accessible. They took extra time and effort to hunt it down, much to the appreciation of the Veterans association documenting those we lost during that war.“

“Thank you to Michael for your professionalism and respect. So thankful that we chose this place to give my father his final goodbye in 2025. You saw him as a human being, not just another client.“

“I wish I could find the words to express the compassion and kindness I experienced with Memory Eternal. Vanessa was so understanding and accommodating. I cannot say enough good things. She helped me through the entire process and stood beside at my father's burial. She was truly my rock on that day and I cannot begin to express my heartfelt gratitude.“

“We planned my Mother's funeral from Florida site unseen. The Funeral Director Steve, met and exceeded every request we asked for. They worked seamlessly with the cemetery director. Steve was very calm and soothing for our family. He also stepped in when our church failed us by personally leading the prayers at both the funeral home and he did a very respectful gravesite last words. Simply Amazing. Cannot say enough.
The funeral home was very clean and stately. A proper memorial for my Mother“

“Over the years, Geils held the funerals of my father, brother, and most recently, our beloved mother. Geils took care of everything, which was a great comfort to us. I definitely recommend them.“

“River Woods Funeral Chapels went above and beyond for my family and I during one of the most difficult times of our lives. Bill and Claudia handled every detail with compassion, patience, and respect, which brought me real comfort during this difficult time. I can’t thank them both enough and would wholeheartedly recommend River Woods Funeral Chapels to anyone who needs someone caring in their corner and their services!

Claudia took care of all arrangements needed to have my grandmother transported back to her hometown in MX. She had such great communication as well respectfully, which gave me and my family peace and comfort of mind during this difficult time for all of us. They stayed by our side and helped my family and I understand everything step by step.

My family and I are blessed to have met Claudia and Bill; both are very special people with such big hearts. They treated us like family

The staff at this funeral home were compassionate, professional, and attentive. We’re so grateful for their support and kindness.

Thank you River Woods Funeral Chapels for all you did!“

“Cooney Funeral Home provided caring and supportive care for my mother’s funeral and arrangements. I felt well taken care of throughout the process and they followed all my instructions. I am grateful to have chosen them to take care of my mother.“

“I was very skeptical about funeral homes after a really bad experience 10 years ago somewhere else. Lloyd and his team were very easy and pleasant to deal with. The communication was good and the services went very smoothly. No weird paperwork or pushing of services. Thank you, Lloyd for helping us during a difficult transition, but making the service and cremation as our grandmother would’ve wished.“

“Glad I went here at a difficult time. Many of the staff are exceedingly kind and compassionate, treating every step with respect and care for loved pets.
The unique aspect is the ability to be present during cremation, which was important for our family.
- Thank you -“

“​My family and I can't say enough about the incredible service we received from Smith-Corcoran Funeral Home for my mother's funeral yesterday. From our first phone call with Karen to our initial meeting with Jay Smith, the funeral director, we knew we were in good hands. Jay took the time to get to know my family and learn about my mother, explaining every step of the process with clarity and compassion. The professionally printed documents he provided were a huge help during a difficult time.
​The entire staff was outstanding. During the wake, Eric and Judy were so engaging, sympathetic, and helpful. The facility itself was inviting and spotless. On the day of the funeral, Jay's patience and leadership were exemplary, from guiding the caravan to ensuring every detail was perfect. It was clear that for Jay and the entire team, this isn't just a job—they genuinely care. Kirstin, Raul, and the rest of the staff all showed the same high level of customer service.
​Smith-Corcoran made a very sad day bearable. We are so grateful for their professionalism and empathy, and we know my mother would have been extremely proud of how beautifully everything was handled. Thank you, Jay, Karen, Kirstin, Eric, Judy, Raul, and the entire wonderful team at Smith-Corcoran.“
