About Gary L. Kaufman Funeral Home at Meadowridge Memorial Park

Gary L. Kaufman Funeral Home at Meadowridge Memorial Park is part of Service Corporation International, the largest corporate funeral chain in the country, rather than an independently owned business — something families who prefer a locally rooted provider may want to factor into their decision. The facility offers full-service funeral and burial options on-site at Meadowridge Memorial Park, along with Celebration of Life events with catering, pre-planning services, and obituary support, making it a comprehensive option for families who want most arrangements handled in one place. Reviewers consistently note that services are on the more expensive side, though several describe the pricing as clearly explained and well-organized; specific price figures were not available for this summary. With a 4.6-star rating across 317 reviews, the home draws frequent praise for caring, attentive staff members — individual directors like Liz Dowell and Tammy Davis are mentioned by name — though at least one review raises a concern about staff responding to a family with hostility regarding cemetery marker removal, which is worth keeping in mind.

On January 10, 2026, my husband and I had the pleasure of working with Tammy Davis to complete our pre‑arrangements for his mother, himself, and me. Tammy was exceptionally professional and attentive to our needs throughout the entire process. She ensured that we understood every detail from beginni…

The behavior currently being displayed is completely unacceptable. Removing markers with no notice to family this close to Christmas is appalling and when information is requested family members are meant with hostility and zero compassion. The idea of going to honor and spend time with your loved …

The Gary L. Kaufman Funeral Home at Meadowridge made the challenging experience with the death of my mother much easier. Candace and the entire staff were fantastic with the entire process. We had a Celebration of Life at the Funeral Home which included catering. I could not be more pleased with the…

When it came time to plan a funeral service for my mother, I knew there was no other place, than Kaufman funeral home, and no other person than Liz Dowell to help me plan. Liz has helped my family with several funerals over the years, her compassion and knowledge is what truly sets her apart from t…

I told them my mother's favorite musical artist; they employed his hits at key moments of her funeral and burial. The obituary I wrote inc…
