    In my line of work, I have had to deal with funeral homes quite a bit. Lakeview Funeral Home is by…read morefar the superior funeral home in the Chicagoland area who will treat you with the grace, sensitivity and respect that you need and the one that you lost deserves. No one's mind is in the right place when they have lost someone they love but with the staff at Lakeview (and big shout out to Willie Rodriguez who is my go to point of contact), what you forget, they will remember for you and they take care of everything so you can really focus on saying goodbye.

    I am giving Andrea Estrada@ Lakeview Funeral Home a 5-star rating,…read moreThe Japanese American community has been doing business with Lakeview since Hiro Masumoto was a funeral director. They support the JA community so when I needed assistance, I went to Lakeview Funeral home. The old adage, one hand washes the other. Andrea is thorough, business minded and caring at the same time. Never dismissive. I did not choose a funeral service that was high priced. And to her credit Andrea did not try to sell me one. I believe that no matter what the funeral service price is, she would give you the same attentive, caring treatment. My phone calls are answered quickly, email questions answered promptly. I recommend Lakeview Funeral Home. When I walk into Lakeview the first person, I usually see is William Rodriguez, who always greeted me with a smile, how you doing? and directed me to where I needed to go.

    Pros: - Location…read moreproximity to the city - Good size parking lot - Immediate scheduling availability for an unexpected death - Nice room ambiance with privacy -TV provided for photo slideshow Cons: - No speaker system, not even a basic one. That means if you have more than 30 people and need to stand more than 20 feet away from the speaker, you won't be able to hear anything. - Visitation hours were set for 3pm to 8pm. However, the night of, the staff said the food area downstairs is closing at 7pm and no food is allowed upstairs. We were so confused and scrambled to put the food away while there was another hour of visitation left. Many helpers went without refreshments because of that. What? - The morning of the service, we set out the refreshments again since we had so much left over. Without communicating to us, they packed everything up and said we were not allowed to use that area anymore. - Our sister was 42. She didn't have white hair when we said goodbye to her on Monday. When we saw her at the funeral home on Friday (four days later), her hair had prominent white patches, making her look much older than she was. We asked the staff if they could please help turn the hair black (use mascara? dye? paint?) and he ARGUED with us, saying it is what it is. At the end, he said he'll see what he could do and it only improved minimally. - White gloves were NOT provided for pallbearers. They also had to actually lift the 400lb+ casket down a few steps. - The person leading the pallbearers down the hallway at the cemetery was practically speed-walking. The pallbearers were told to "keep up." What the heck? - At the cemetery, we wanted to spend a few minutes saying goodbye to our sister but we were told to quickly walk by the coffin and exit to our cars. Our entire group had less than five minutes inside the cemetery. We didn't get to put flowers on her coffin let alone spending a private moment with her. Conclusion: We felt rushed every step of the way. The general impression we had was that the staffs at Dalcamo wanted to get the job over with. If you can't empathize with our grief, maybe don't work in this industry anymore. One of the staff was wearing a pretty orange-peach top like it's just another day at the office. Complete disrespect and disastrous communication, ruining all the most important moments for us. Plus it was the most expensive place that nickeled and dined us. Will not work with them again.

This is one of those businesses you hope you never have to use. But that said, every service I have attended here has been handled with respect, decorum and professionalism. The last service we were at several months ago was set up to live stream the service. I thought that was a nice touch as sometimes people do not have the ability to travel to locations or get time off of work. There is a nice size parking lot and the physical space and rooms are well maintained and clean.

I have always believed in "people first money second" especially in a time like this. Jamie Greenbaum was born for this position, her sensitivity, compassion and understanding of people who have lost a loved one was impeccable. Unfortunately this was a covid funeral which had many limitations, but Jamie and staff helped us honor and celebrate my father's life beautifully. The night before we needed to get photos in so they can make a montage. One of our family members gave me the wrong email and all emails came back with our pics. I was in tears, Jamie and staff at 7am the next morning 3 hours before the funeral made a miracle and what a job they did!!!! Thank you for all you do, Lori

    I had the misfortune of attending the service for my first cousin's wife, who passed away too young…read moreat the age of 68. The review is for the service itself, not what my family experienced in making the arrangements. But if full disclosure, they had no complaints. Gatling has two floor and what looks like a basement as well. You can walk up stairs to the rooms on the second floor, but there are also elevators for those that need it. The room itself was well maintained and the sound system was good. The service itself was very well organized. It started on time and the pastor conducting the service kept everything on time and moving as intended. I was most impressed that they respectfully told the crowd that only certain representatives of my cousin's family and friends would be allowed to speak; everyone else could share their stories at the repass. I loved this. While everyone in each group got to go up on the stage, one person spoke for them. My first cousin (the husband) did not go up, but that was cool as it was his choice to let his kids have their say. The entire experience was handled very professionally. I was impressed at level of professionalism of the staff. Everyone was courtesy in greeting me, directing me to the location where the service was being held. The parking staff was also nice, directing me to a space that would allow me to leave early as I had another memorial event to attend later that day. They still have the screen outside for drive by visits, but it was not on that day. Yes the decor is dated but it was clean. I loved that the staff were all in they same uniforms for the most part. There were 1-2 gentlemen who were in suits, but the maroon colors were a nice touch. All in all, for a sad event, this was handled in a well organized manner. You tend not to want to think about future plans, but this would be a place on my list. Professional, organized and on point with the time management.

    When we arrived, the first "sorry for your loss" came with no eye contact and sounded like a bored,…read morerehearsed script -- and that set the tone for everything that followed. It became clear very quickly that this funeral home is focused on money and volume, not compassion or care. Our service was rushed from start to finish. We were repeatedly interrupted with unrelated parking announcements. In the middle of my mother's honoring song -- a moment that mattered deeply to us -- the staff told us to turn the volume down so they could make yet another announcement. Although we arrived on time, they still cut our service short just to move on to the next one. Her slideshow wasn't even properly set up. Only one screen was turned on, leaving half the room unable to see her photos and memories. That level of carelessness during a final tribute is unacceptable. There were no tissues for mourners, no direction or support from staff, and no sense of leadership to help guide us through such an important moment. The entire experience felt cold, rushed, and transactional. To make things worse, they removed one of her songs from the obituary without explanation or permission. That was a personal detail we carefully chose to honor her life -- and they simply erased it. For a service that cost nearly $10,000, we expected respect, professionalism, and a facility that reflects dignity. Instead, the aesthetics are dated, uninviting, and in need of serious investment. The staff appears untrained, overwhelmed, and more focused on packing in back-to-back services than honoring the people entrusted to them. My family has used this funeral home for years, but after this experience, that ends with me. My mother deserved better, and families deserve to know what they're walking into. I hope people start paying attention and choose a place that truly cares instead of one that treats grief like a business transaction.
