Iles Dunn’s Funeral Home has been building its reputation as a trusted funeral home since 1913. The funeral staff continually seeks education, offering to teach interns and train those new to the industry. The licensed funeral directors are split into two teams. The Care Center Team focuses on caring for the body of the deceased and preparing it for its final resting place. The Arrangement Team works with each family to plan the funeral or memorial, creating a unique experience for all in attendance. Their slogan is Celebrate Life the Way You Live It, and their team includes a videographer who can create memorable video tributes. Each chapel is equipped with updated technology for live streaming.

Iles Dunn’s Funeral Home has funeral options spanning open-casket visitations, graveside ceremonies, life celebrations, funeral services in the chapel or at a venue of your choice, veteran services, and military honors. Life celebrations are a way to throw a party on behalf of your loved one who has passed away. You can share memories, browse through a hobby display, and watch a tribute video.

Memorial ceremonies can also happen at any time without having to follow a strict burial timeline. Cremation with a memorial ceremony is a great way to gather your family after completing the cremation. Or you can choose direct cremation if you are not interested in a formal gathering. Many families who select cremation prefer to get together in a private setting to honor the life of their loved ones.
