Celebrate Life the Way You Lived It
At our funeral homes, we understand the importance of connecting with family members and friends who are unable to attend a service or visitation. That's why our chapels are equipped to record the audio and video of services and stream them online. To view a loved one's livestream, simply navigate to their posted obituary and find the streaming links in the Video Section.
From start to finish, we want to help you create a service reflective of the way your loved one lived their life. Our caring and experienced professionals are available at any time to offer support and guidance throughout the planning process.
At Iles Funeral Homes, we have honed our skills over the years to make your time with us comfortable and memorable. Our licensed funeral directors are divided into two teams - the Care Center Team, which focuses on taking care of the body of the deceased, and the Arranging Team, which can guide families through planning a service that is unique to their loved ones. With many of our staff members having over 10 years of experience, you can trust that they will handle each family's needs in a sensitive and thoughtful manner. Additionally, each chapel varies in size and is designed with distinct décor and updated technology to accommodate virtual guests who may be live streaming from home.
We prioritize ongoing training for our staff at Iles Funeral Homes, ensuring that they are up to date with the newest trends and best ways to serve our families. When it comes to funeral services, you have the choice to have a viewing, a funeral in our on-site chapel or a church of your preference, and a graveside ceremony. Our slogan - Celebrate Life the Way You Lived It - underscores our commitment to personalizing each funeral with details and snapshots of the life of the deceased on display, so that family members can reminisce about the good times. Additionally, we have a graphic and video artist on staff to help with any memorial videos that you may desire.
For those considering cremation services, our Dunn's Crematory provides a secure and private space where families can watch their loved ones as they are placed in the chamber. If you prefer a cremation without a service, we offer direct cremation as an option. Alternatively, you can choose to gather your family for a memorial ceremony following the cremation.
