I was just here for a wake/funeral. The facilities are kept very nice, clean, and well lit…read more What I liked about this facility is that the funeral home and cemetery are all on the same property, so no need to travel far when burying your loved ones. During the wake, the main sitting room was very peaceful and serene. The decor was nice, neutral, and not over the top. There were rooms available to sit in to eat snacks. The room contained plenty of tables and chairs. They even have a kitchen in the basement that they allowed us to use for lunch after the burial service. There were about 100 people so they even opened up other rooms for others to sit and eat in that weren't meant for lounging. The whole place didn't seem eerie or creepy as other funeral homes that I've been to. The cemetery grounds was well kept and clean. We walked from the funeral home to the place where our loved one was going to get buried and it was a nice and peaceful walk. I guess I can end this review advising that this is a nice place to get buried in? *insert wide eyed emoji here*

I had been planning the burial of my brother's, mother's, and father's ashes next to my sister's…read moregrave for nearly five months. About two weeks before the scheduled date, the cemetery called to tell me I could no longer have the date I reserved because they needed to close the cemetery for a "high-profile" burial. I later learned through the news that it was for a retired Chicago Bears player. What's frustrating is that they claimed it was for privacy, yet media coverage was allowed inside the cemetery. Because of the last-minute change, I lost a deposit at a restaurant we had booked, since they were unable to accommodate us on another date. I then had to scramble to make new arrangements during an already difficult time. A Very disappointing experience. I understand that unexpected situations can happen, but giving such short notice after months of planning--especially for something this important--caused unnecessary stress and financial loss. My grave markers are another disappointing experience still waiting. so a 2nd review is pending

My father passed away last month and we chose Shalom Memorial for his funeral service and burial…read more While I have never had to choose a funeral home before, I don't think I could be more pleased with our experience. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. Before his passing, we had an initial visit with Michael regarding plot selection and he was helpful with helping us pick the location that best met our needs. No pressure, just a friendly visit and discussion. After he passed, we then worked with Sherry and Arlene to purchase the plot, casket, vault, shroud, death certificates, etc. The cost was substantial, but I imagine it is likely in line with other Jewish cemeteries in the area. Included in the cost is perpetual care of the grounds so there are no additional fees down the road. The chapel for his service was very nice and all of the people working there that day were super friendly. They live streamed his service which many in my family used. They also provided the ability to download the service which I decided to do. Shalom Memorial received the death certificates a few days afterwards from the village and we picked them right away so we could begin sending them to those who needed them. I really can't think of anything that I didn't like or was disappointed in.

While this process is always difficult, it couldn't have been easier or more smooth. Tony was wonderful: caring, thoughtful, resourceful, patient, and quick. He moved us through the decision-making process easily, recommended a rabbi and a Shiva location, and made things happen. The services were beautiful and meaningful, and our pain was eased because there was no additional stress. Many thanks from the Sandler family.
