Funeral Services And Cemeteries near Lake Zurich

“The Davenport funeral home at Lake Zürich did a fantastic job with my father’s cremation service. They were very compassionate and incredibly accommodative of our Hindu (Vaishnavite) traditions. I was stunned at how well they had dressed my dad in traditional attire (panchakacham) based on a YouTube video we have provided them. Thank you ?“

“My mom passed away sooner than we wanted in March 2024. After looking at a few funeral homes, we we had a recommendation from a friend to use Glueckert. We decided to have 1 1/2 hours visitation, prayer and then procession to the church for the funeral mass. I can’t say enough about how kind and professional everyone was. The room looked beautiful and the picture of my mom in front of the casket was lovely. I could not have asked for a better experience on such a very hard day. I would use Glueckert Funeral Home again in a heartbeat.“

“We are very happy with the outstanding service provided by Davenport Family Funeral Home for our mom’s funeral. We would specifically like to recognize Jennifer Valentine and Peggy Woods at the Barrington location. Jennifer expertly guided us through the process and made sure every single detail was taken care of despite a very short window to make the arrangements (3 days). Peggy made sure that everything was seamless and ran smoothly the day of the funeral. Both of them were exceptionally professional, kind, and compassionate throughout. We credit Davenport for making an extremely overwhelming process as easy as it could be under the circumstances. Even though we only had a few days to make all of the arrangements, the funeral was perfect in every way thanks to Jennifer, Peggy, and the entire Davenport team. We truly felt taken care of from the minute we first contacted Davenport until the end of the funeral service. They coordinated everything with the church and the cemetery and gently guided us and our guests where to go and when the day of the funeral so we did not have to worry about a thing. The Davenport team then arranged to deliver the flowers to our home the next day, drove to our house in a snowstorm, and even shoveled our steps! This is just one example of the many times that we noticed the Davenport team going above and beyond. We highly recommend Davenport Family Funeral Home not only for its comprehensive service and transparent pricing but also for the exceptional care and compassion the Davenport team provided to us during such a difficult time.“

“Presentation was held in my home. The experience was without sales urgency. It was conducted with utmost care for my feelings and sensitivity re end of life pre-arrangements. Zachary was always attentive to my exhausting questions re particular details of the process. I would highly recommend that those who want a no fuss, no bother death arrangement, Neptune has anticipated a myriad of contingency questions covered for a less stressful experience.“

“Words really cannot properly express how grateful we are to Kevin Kristan and his team. They took great care of our family, helping make a very difficult time a little easier. We didn’t have to worry about anything, as they took care of every detail. Kevin’s demeanor is very comforting and was so appreciated. It’s clear he truly cares and wants your experience to be as positive and easy as possible. We would recommend Kristan to anyone looking for the best help available in handling the loss of a loved one.“

“Our family cannot say enough about Smith-Corcoran. This past month, we said goodbye to a third family member whose funeral was arranged with them. It is a family business, through and through. They treated all of us, including the deceased, with warmth and the utmost respect. They take care of all the details, big and small. They jumped in to fold funeral programs that we had printed privately. They handle everything with care and ease and we cannot recommend them highly enough. We will be forever grateful for how well they have taken care of our loved ones thorough the years.“

“I can highly recommend Lauterburg-Oehler for preserving the dignity and memory of your dearly departed loved ones. They are respectful, compassionate, knowledgeable and professional and they make this process as seamless as possible. A big thank you to Julie, Melanie and Matt for all your help and support. Your kindness and encouragement got me through the hardest time of my life.“

“It feels a little strange to leave a funeral home review but to the person reading this, I’m sorry for your loss. There’s not a single thing anyone can say to make things better. However, McMurrough Funeral Chapel made everything the best it could possibly be for my family when we lost our mom late April 2024. If you want the short version, these people aren’t after your money. You’ll know it the moment you call them with questions. In 10 words or less, they are dependable, trusting, caring and accommodating to your needs. The director and his assistant are very communicative and professional. During the service, they were available yet respectful of you and your guests’ space. If you have time, read on. Our mom peacefully went in Las Vegas and needed to be flown to Chicago. Between the coordination of my mom’s flight and assurance of her safe arrival to the funeral chapel, McMurrough’s funeral director, Brian gave the utmost comfort and peace of mind for all of us. They are very organized. The viewing service and mass were beautiful and these dependable, wonderful, caring people of this funeral home made it all possible.<br>P.S. We lost our nephew years back and we did not have the same experience with Burnett Funeral Home down the road however, I don’t want to give them a negative review as I understand folks have a business to run.“

“Matthew and the team at Symonds Funeral Home made a difficult process easier. Not only were they patient and understanding, they anticipated obstacles and did everything they could to simplify the process. I can't recommend them enough.“

“I won't say much. They handled my beloved son's cremation in February. Brad was wonderful, kind, courteous and patient. Thank you, Ahlgrim, for your service.“

“Had the pleasure of dealing with Tina at Memory Gardens. She was well informed, professional and very kind. The whole experience was comfortable and efficient. Can't say enough about the service and care we received. Thank you!!“

“Meadows Funeral Home was recommended to me by a family friend after an unexpected death in the family. The family is currently on the West Coast and the memorial would be in the Chicago suburbs. Melissa Nelson was patient and compassionate as I called for information regarding a death half way across the country. She provided details on what Meadows could provide and also offered alternative solutions for us which wouldn’t even result in revenue for her. To me, this is a sign of a true professional looking out for the best interests of the client. She also made any expenses that might be incurred very clear as she understands that many times families aren’t prepared for the expense. Ultimately, due to size constraints, we were unable to use Meadows, but I absolutely recommend Meadows Funeral Home and Melissa.“

“My beloved aunt was interred at Shalom Memorial Park this afternoon. Hers was a life well lived in service to her family, her clients and her myriad friends near and far.The manifest stress that resulted secondary to her passing was exacerbated by the fact that her daughter, my nominal cousin, is a card carrying member of the lunatic fringe, certifiable and several French fries short of a Happy Meal.Imagine, if you will and care to, flying in from Florida to Chicago during the dead of Winter to bury the most important person in your life, sans winter coat and/or notification of the plethora of friends and relatives who knew and loved this person, and, upon arriving at the burial plot, asking site management to inform the few guests that presented that, because the daughter traveled from a warm enclave and has no winter coat, the eulogy would take place outside the certifiable daughter's rented Toyota Corolla while all guests gathered around the vehicle from which heat and David Bowie emanated, while daughter sat warm, comfortable and completely impervious to all that transpired around her. I'm still trying to figure out how Shalom's management team and the excellent presiding rabbi pulled this off without averting their eyes while explaining this "plan" or, frankly, laughing out loud.That they were able to do so both transparently and professionally is and was unfathomable to the few other relatives in attendance and me, and was, again, appreciated. While my beloved aunt now resides on the other side of eternity, her progeny lives on, which is perfectly acceptable as long as she returns to Florida and never again darkens either my doorstep nor generally jovial disposition any time soon, if ever again.“

“Mark and team were very helpful during a difficult time for our family. Thank you for the support.“

“I had a very unique, terribly sad situation regarding my beloved dog, Bella. John Gibbs came to my rescue. He was the most understanding, compassionate, helpful person. He made a horrendous situation bearable. He immediately took care of everything for me. I never could have lived through it without him.“

“We had the privilege of working with Lily Koukol for several months this spring. She was always so patient, kind and extremely knowledgeable as we worked together to find the perfect eternal resting place for our future!<br>As my husband has said after retiring from a retail career in Purchasing, Lily was working to resolve our wants and needs as opposed to just making a sale! She always had and has our best interest at heart! Thank you, Lily, for the many hours you spent with us in resolving our needs. We are extremely grateful and appreciative of your kindness, understanding, patience, compassion and expertise! Sincerely, Judy and Bob Gleeson“
