One thing that has not changed is that we still offer professional services with affordable prices. We offer our services at GARY MEMORIAL CHAPEL with outstanding class and dignity. Visit us a www.garymemorialchapel.com for more details about who we are and how we can assist your family with at need or preneed wishes.

We wanted to share with you an exciting new leadership position one of our funeral directors has taken on. Attached is a recent intro video blog done by our Funeral Director Lori Diaz. We are proud of her accomplishments and look forward to her monthly video blogs with Funeral Divas www.funeraldivas.com. Lori will be sharing a video blog at least twice a month. We know you will find these tips helpful and insightful.

Take care and remember that in order to “Celebrate a Life Well Lived” you need to utilize a funeral home where they believe EVERY LIFE deserves to be celebrated and honored! WE ARE THAT CHOICE!
