We are cremation specialists in the Cleveland-South area, and unlike many funeral homes today, we don’t subcontract your loved one’s services to a third-party crematory.

Our staff of licensed professionals can be contacted 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to accommodate your family’s needs, and we can meet with you wherever you feel most comfortable—whether that’s at the Cleveland-South office or in the comfort of your own home.
