Great experience. While we were busy mourning the loss of our loved one, this place handled…read moreeverything perfectly, so one less thing for us to stress about. They have multiple rooms, different sizes, some with seating and some without. We got a large room with seating. They have a monitor, if you want to set up a slideshow. They also have a public kitchen and private kitchen, so if you are there for an extended time, you might want to leave food in the kitchen. They have a refrigerator where you can store items. They also provide free coffee. The facility is very nice, and the staff are great. When we got food delivered, Jamie offered to bring it to the kitchen for us so that we wouldn't have to be bothered. At the end of the wake, they let us stay to say our goodbyes as long as we needed to.

The death of a loved one is something for which we are never really prepared. There can be so much…read moreconfusion at a time when a giant wave of grief first shows itself, and we may feel lost, hopeless, and helpless. Many questions arise when we're responsible for making final arrangements, and I'm glad we had Williams-Kampp to guide us along the way. Our father grew up in Wheaton, and the location wasn't too far from the cemetery in West Chicago where he was to be buried next to our mother, so this seemed like the perfect place to have his visitation and funeral service. The fact that our father was visiting my sister in Texas at the time of his death did not make things easier. But Dan Williams was there for us, and he informed us of what to expect. My father passed away in the hospital at 1:36 a.m.--a time when I felt lost and didn't know what to do. Dan was there to answer the phone at two in the morning, and he assured me that he would take care of everything. I can't begin to describe the feeling of relief I felt by those words. I told my siblings, "Everything was going to be okay; they've got us." There were extra steps on the part of the state of Texas in getting my father's remains back home, but Dan took care of everything for us, reassuring us of the progress along the way. The "Dad is back home" text when his plane landed and they had him was comforting. One may often read in Yelp reviews the phrase "I cannot say enough...," and it certainly applies here. Dan was there when we arrived back in Illinois to make our father's final arrangements and services. You hear ghost stories of funeral homes preying on the grief of family members to sell them the most expensive items in their inventory. I went in ready to pounce. But it never happened. There was no showing of the $10k casket. We told Dan about the image we had for our father, and what he showed us was perfect. We were told about a vault being required by state law, "but there's no reason to get the expensive one." These are not the sales people my siblings and I were expecting. They were everything I could have hoped for and more. While I'm in no hurry to use their services again--certainly, none of us are--if anyone finds themselves in need of help making final arrangements for a loved one, this is the place to go. If you're reading this review during a time where you feel lost, turn to Williams-Kampp. You'll be in good hands. I'm sorry for your loss, and may peace find you swiftly.

Extremely grateful for the tremendous guidance of their #1 employee Chela Q. she saw forward that everything came out smoothly during our heartbreaking moments. We unexpectedly lost my mother in law and since starting the process with them, they completely made the experience so much more bearable. The communication and understanding Chela provided was amazing. They provided us with all the information needed and helped us through all of our questions. That helped alleviate the pain making the process much smoother. We couldn't have chosen a better funeral home. Unfortunately sad to know that they know how to treat not appreciate their employees due to the arrogance of the owner Anthony. It looks like the place runs beautifully without his presence. If it would have not been for all of Chela help along with Becky I guarantee we would have gone with our option 2. This unprofessional owner doesn't have his employee there anymore when i tied to reach out to her 2 wks after. So I no longer recommend this place if you have to deal with Anthony.

He decided to purchase a 3-bedroom, 2 bath home in the all-White suburbs of Arlington Heights - 100% so that my my little brother and I could have a backyard with a children's swing set in the 70s Point being, my mother, who physically beat us with a wooden spoon DAILY... I would never assault a dog physically or verbally... why the fxck would any human assault physically a 2-year old????!!!! She hated my MD Dad and her children So when my my Dr. MD Dad suddenly dropped dead in in 2014 - my local Illinois Cremation Center was there primarily there for my husband to follow a traditional Hindu cremation (imagine a simplified ved version of happy comedic Dr. Kuttners (if you ever watched House, perhaps the last amazing TV show sans Cable);self-inflicted gunshot suicide When Dad dropped dead, he had handwritten instructions on what to do with his ashes Well Uma still keeps HIM in his now-bedroom in his closet with the door to the room permanently closed Via my husband, while I was still "comatose" and eliminated on my my bed on three layers of "puppy training pads" ICC offered my husband to pray to witness all of it, although his best offer was to purchase a simple wooden wood box and an "expensive but cheap" bamboo container They in addition to cremation - trust ME THIS SINGULAR TIME PLEASE - Order #1M Death Certificates with ease (needed for cancelation of every single thing in his name (home, utilities, credit cards, phone accounts (lol the landline) cell, etc etc etc.. Uma regularly ays her victim card with his passing, she is an 80+ authentic Yoga instructor and daily I hope that I die prior to her Uma's body can finally rot in her finally her her own house that my Dad paid for when he was a very poor MD student and his only "job" was as a pre-MD student teacher Uma does not deserve Illinois Cremation Center so respect and care of anyone would has passed and especially their kindness of families going through the ordeal My husband is big and tall White guy As I understand it, we both require at least the same size container.

They also were able to get all of our official documentation information filled out at that moment as well. We had the basic cremation package which allowed us a 30 minute viewing.
