About Stevens Memorial Chapel
Stevens Memorial Chapel is a full-service funeral home in Ames, Iowa, operating as part of Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral home chain in the country — families who prefer locally or independently owned providers may want to keep that in mind. The chapel offers a range of services including traditional burial and visitation, and as a full-service location it can typically accommodate most standard funeral and memorial needs. Pricing information was not available for this summary, so we recommend requesting an itemized General Price List directly from the funeral home, which they are legally required to provide. Across 20 Google reviews, Stevens Memorial Chapel holds a 4.8-star rating, with customers consistently highlighting the care and attentiveness of specific staff members — particularly funeral director Ryan Kester and arranger Paige — noting that staff remembered families across multiple losses and provided steady, compassionate support during unusually difficult circumstances.
