About Parkside Chapels & Cremation Services

Parkside Chapels & Cremation Services is an independently owned funeral home in Chicago, offering both cremation and full-service funeral options. Their direct cremation starts at $1,875, which sits in a competitive range for the Chicago market, though families should confirm what is included at that price point. The home holds a 5.0-star Google rating, though with only 5 reviews, that score reflects a very small sample and may not yet represent a broad range of experiences. Families looking for a locally owned alternative to corporate providers may find this worth exploring, but reaching out directly with questions and requesting a General Price List is a reasonable step before making any decisions.

I would to say thank you to Jeff and Alexis for the patience and kind words for the loss of my mother. I have been very overwhelmed with the loss of my mom. Thank you, for helping put my mom to rest in a very respectful way.
