About Garfield Waters Funeral Home

Garfield Waters Funeral Home is an independently owned funeral home serving the Chicago area. As a full-service provider, they are equipped to assist families with a range of arrangements, and their independent ownership means decisions are typically made at the local level rather than through a corporate structure. Direct cremation starts at $1,850, which is a reasonable entry point for the Chicago market. They hold a 4.3-star rating on Google, though with only 13 reviews, that score reflects a relatively small sample size, so families may want to seek additional firsthand references when evaluating their experience.
