Grave Makers Services in Des Plaines,IL

The best experience in the worst time in our life's. Spencer was a wonderful help had so much patience and helped us so much. Truly recommend them. My mom Maria was in the best hands. I just want to say Thank you from Chavez family.

What can I say about Alex (the director/owner) and his team. We were planning services for the first time ever, for my father (A Hindu service), and Alex made everything happen. I thought it would be far more work on our end, but given Alexes experience EVERYTHING was streamlined. They also have mounts for wireless streaming for those who can’t be in attendance due to Covid. They had a dozen or so Hindu priests and florists that he could reach out to, which was a concern given the short period of time we had to get everything together. Within one hour or so of sitting down, we were all set up. Also, unlike other places, the cost is considerably lower. The chapel is beautiful and spacious, which is great when considering some older friends and family members may be concerned about being too close to others. They also have everything done there in house, so anything you need done can be done on the spot there, and there’s less concern about something not being done for your loved ones. Lastly, Alex is just a great guy in general. He answered every question we had (there hardly were any simply because they have everything considered for you before hand), and went above and beyond to ensure we didn’t have to worry about anything. Him and his team are compassionate, experienced (second generation family owned). If you need services for a loved one, whether it’s Hindu or not, reach out to Alex. I can’t thank them enough for being there for us during such a difficult time.

Good people working at this place. They call you back promptly to answer any questions and try to make your life easier during a difficult time.

Best funeral service in Chicago land area. Alex is awesome!

We could not have asked for a more empathetic, understanding, and overall accommodating experience. Nora helped us navigate every piece of the planning process, and helped act as a bright spot in an otherwise rough situation.

Very thankful for Dupage Cremations for getting me through the most difficult day of my life. Other funeral homes were pushing their own agendas, but Dupage was interested in knowing what we wanted to do. Highly recommend

Thank you for the work that you do, and a special thank you to Mrs. Karrie for the help you gave me and my family personally. ??

The entire staff went above and beyond when our dad passed away. From day one we knew we had made the right choice. They have been respectful and quick to respond to all our questions. Absolutely beautiful place to have the memorial service. We can not put to words how grateful we are to you all for what you do!

I was very impressed with the staff from DuPage Cremations. When my husband passed away it was a difficult and painful time. But the staff who came to the house we're so kind and so considerate and patient that it made the process less cumbersome. They explained what to expect and how the process worked. They eased the pain a little. I feel the memorial was a total success and friends from all over the world were able to participate thru zoom or view the entire ceremony through the live stream on Vimeo. Friends commented on how spacious and well lit the viewing room was and how accommodating the dining area was. I highly recommend DuPage Cremation for making a difficult less stressful.

DuPage Cremation and Funeral service team provided our family with support, guidance, and abundance of patience during our very difficult time for my fathers service. They were professional and caring throughout the entire process. The facility is welcoming, modern, and extremely comfortable. A BIG thank you to Khrystyna who created an amazing slideshow to share during the service. Also they provided us with a live streaming Vimeo so family from all over the country were able to take part in the service. Thank you for all your efforts behind the scene. My family truly appreciates you :)

It was a nice venue, and the staff was helpful and accommodating. However, their microphones and PA didn't work that well. Also, the plastic rose you give to those who have lost someone dear to them is in bad taste. If people are dealing with serious grief, and paying you large sums of money for your services, at least you can give them a real flower.

Very knowledgeable about Hindu services and cremations. Classy.

If you are looking to have your loved one cared for the staff here does just that. These people are kind and respectful. They answer any questions you may have.

The kindness and care Khrystyna showed our family while making the arrangements was amazing. The entire staff did such a great job in making everything beautiful. Not to mention the remodeled kitchen area and large viewing room. Thanks again. ??

For the prices and room you get, this place is quite nice. It was very large and was perfect for the amount of people who showed up to my brothers service. Plus the space for food was large enough too. I'm knocking one star because my family paid extra for my brothers hair to be done, supposedly by a stylist. He was a hair stylist himself, so his hair was so important to him. When we showed up, it was straight. It bothered me so much but at that point, we couldn't do anything. I thought maybe it was because it had been about a bit since he passed (about a week and a half), but I asked a mortician months later and was told the hair could still be curled. Seems like such a small thing but it has bothered me for over a year now. Had I known his hair would not get done, I would have done it myself. If they weren't able to do it how he would have wanted, I wish they would have said something. Just beware of paying for extra services that may not be done.

Professional

My family and I have had the honor to work with DuPage Cremations for several deaths in our family. We cannot say enough about the staff and the compassion and the care that they provide. We can’t thank you for everything that you’ve done for our family. Alex is a great guy who will always go out of his way for his families. We can’t thank you enough Alex, for always being there.

Dupage cremations was just wonderful. I worked with Brittany who was fantastic, very compassionate and personable. They were very assuring in an otherwise chaotic time in my family's life. 5 stars across the board!

Best of the best

Grateful to DuPage Cremations for their excellent services. They went out of their way to accommodate our special needs.

Grateful to DuPage Cremations for their beautiful and excellent venue and services. The entire staff went out of their way to accommodate Indian and Hindu traditions, customs and culture when our dad passed away. They are respectful and quick to respond to all our questions. Absolutely beautiful place to have the memorial service. DuPage Cremations took care of everything while we focused on our family and grief. We are grateful to ALL OF YOU for what you did!

We are so grateful to DuPage Cremations for the care and compassion shown in handling our father’s arrangements. From the very beginning, everything was carried out with dignity and professionalism. Chris was incredibly patient, walking us through each step and never making us feel uneasy about asking the difficult questions that come with such a tender time. They also handled all of our requests very nicely, which gave us peace of mind knowing we were being heard and supported. On the day of the funeral, every detail was beautifully arranged, allowing us to focus on honoring our father and being with family. We truly thank Chris and the entire team from the bottom of our hearts for guiding us with empathy during such a difficult moment.

Absolutely wonderful experience from dealing with staff to the facility itself. This was an immediate impression even while going through a painful moment. They offered the best prices around by far while being very THOROUGH and SLOW with explaining the entire process. This was something greatly needed for me and my family at a delicate time. Thank you

Alex was absolutely wonderful in helping us with the funeral arrangements for my beloved grandma. He is so attentive and understanding and the rest of the staff was beyond welcoming and kind. The building is so beautiful and well maintained as well. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for everything.
