Our History
Our History, Integrity, Compassion and Trust… We take these words seriously. Anthony J. Morizzo and Daniel M. Morizzo, second generation funeral directors, now along with Anthony’s son, Ross A. Morizzo, continue to carry the same traditions their Father and Grandfather, Daniel A. Morizzo, instilled in them. That same motto “a friend in need is a friend indeed,” continues not only in the operation of the funeral home but also in their hearts.
As a family owned and operated business, we take great pride in the services we offer to the families in our community. We are more than caretakers, we are your neighbors and friends. We are privileged to be a part of this community; and your family. We provide unparalleled guidance, unmatched care and unwavering support for the families we serve.

Mr. Anthony J. Morizzo Funeral Director
Tony was not only a licensed Funeral Director and Embalmer for over 55 years, he was a true giver in his community. Tony had an active role in over 20 local organizations and charitable groups. Tony was always there to give that extra help and support to any family, charity, group or activity that would help his fellow man. You can truly say that Tony was not your standard Funeral Director … he was the standard for others to follow. We offered families from Schaumburg, Inverness, Barrington, Streamwood, Hanover Park and our hometown; Hoffman Estates; a beautiful setting in which to come together to honor their loved one.
