Services

At the Egelhof, Siegert & Casper Funeral Homes, we are committed to providing thoughtful and considerate service. We strive for excellence with every family we serve, respecting their beliefs and traditions, and offering superior service with compassion and dignity.

 

A Comfortable Setting for Family and Friends

Our two funeral home locations provide an ideal setting for funeral and memorial gatherings. Visitors appreciate our warm, homelike atmosphere and the gracious hospitality extended by our dedicated staff. We work closely with every family to create a service that is unique, personalized and meaningful, using, for example: photographs, memorabilia and special music when desired.

We Invite Comparison

Almost every day we meet families who have not gathered the information they need in order to make a good decision about the choice of a funeral home. Important considerations should include: the quality of the facilities...reputation in the community...friendliness and experience of the staff, and willingness to meet your personal needs...wide and flexible range of service options and merchandise at fair prices. We invite you to visit our funeral homes, where you will be warmly welcomed, your wishes listened to, and questions answered with the kindness and helpfulness that are hallmarks of our service.

Serving the Dubuque community for over 110 years, our experience has shown that most families select one of the following services, each of which can be personalized to meet your needs.

Traditional Funeral Service
This is the most commonly selected package that we offer, and includes a one day visitation with next day funeral ceremony, followed by committal at the cemetery.

Direct Burial
Arrangements are made to inter the deceased in a cemetery without having any visitation or ceremony.

Memorial Service
Service without the body present.  A visitation, burial or cremation may or may not have preceded the memorial service.

Wide Range of Cremation Services
Whether you prefer traditional services followed by cremation, contemporary memorial services, or no ceremonies whatsoever, you can be assured of the highest standards of care and attention to every detail.

Traditional Cremation
Similar to our traditional burial service, but the deceased is transferred to the crematory instead of a procession going to the cemetery.

Direct Cremation
Direct cremation is selected when no visitation or ceremony is desired.  This most often is the least expensive option offered.

With any service selected, there are many ways to personalize and memorialize your loved one.  We assist our client families in personalizing a funeral service, and tailor it to the lifestyle and personality of the life that was lived.  As no two people are exactly alike, no tribute to a life that was lived should be the same as another.
