About Ridge Funeral Home

Ridge Funeral Home is a full-service funeral home in Chicago's Garfield Ridge neighborhood operating under Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral home chain in North America — families who prefer independent or locally-owned providers may want to keep that in mind. They offer a range of traditional services including wakes, funerals, and memorial arrangements, and the staff appears experienced in guiding families through the full planning process. Pricing information is not publicly available, though at least one longtime customer notes that Ridge runs on the higher end compared to other local options, which is fairly common for SCI-affiliated locations. With a 4.8-star rating across 116 Google reviews, customer feedback is consistently positive, with families frequently highlighting the compassion, professionalism, and attentiveness of individual staff members by name — no notable complaint patterns appear in the available reviews.
