My mother-in-law passed away about a month ago. After meeting with other funeral homes in the area, Morizzo was our choice. We first met Matt who made us feel very welcome and answered a lot of our questions. Tony adjusted his schedule in order to meet with us. He laid out all our options in a professional, yet caring way. I didn't feel like he was trying to "sell" us anything. It felt more like he was helping us navigate this difficult process and whatever we decided to do, he will do his best to accommodate us. Ross kept us updated and addressed all our concerns in a timely manner. Throughout the entire process, they were very professional, very accommodating and genuinely understanding of our situation. Our deepest appreciation goes to Morizzo Funeral Home for the excellent service they have shown our family.

"You are treated with respect and like Family” Words cannot express on how caring and helpful all the staff of Morizzo Funeral Home were during the planning and burial services of my Husband. I felt that I was in excellent hands and my best interests were in excellent hands.

I need to give a shout out to Morizzo Funeral Home in Hoffman Estates and Morettis Restaurant in Hoffman Estates for making two of the most difficult days we’ve ever had bearable. The kindness and respect both institutions held for us and our mother is greatly appreciated. ♥️

I went to Morizzo Funeral Home on a referral from a friend. Being a little depressed and down in the dumps having just lost my father, Ross and Tony Morizzo were very empathetic to my needs. I mean these guys were great!!! I stopped in just to get a quick look at the facilities and can you say TAJMAHAL. This place is beautiful. I talked with Tony first then on day two when I stopped in to set everything up; Ross was there and helped me out. He was very detailed and didn't miss a beat. I had my brother with me who was taking the loss of our father a little harder and I think Ross was able to see my brother wasn't comfortable dealing with this kind of thing and made it comfortable as possible for him. I don't want to keep going on and on about every little detail but these guys are detail oriented and get it done right. I can not say enough, this is a family business with a great family behind it. They care about your needs! William S. of Hanover Park, IL; gave Morizzo Funeral Home a 5.0 star rating 4/21/2013

Unfortunately, back too soon at Morizzo Funeral Home. I originally wrote a review in summer of 2015, but my Dad died in February 2016, so, we were back again. We like Tony (the Dad) and Ross (his son) even more the second time around. Ross Morizzo came to pick up my Dad at hospice upon his passing and greeted us like family; hugs and condolences for everyone. My brother-in-law was confused; he's like, "do we know this guy???" Yes, unfortunately, we're getting to know our funeral parlor owners-of-choice a little more than we'd like to. Once again they made every decision as easy as possible. I'd not met Tony during previous arrangements with my Uncle, but, did so on this occasion. Tony is the perfect amount of compassion and stand-up-comedian. He made us laugh when it was appropriate and let us cry when that's all we could do. We cannot recommend their business; Morizzo Funeral Home, enough. Oh, and then my parents neighbor died in March; back again. Here's hoping we can create some distance between us and the Morizzo's (... nothing personal Ross!)

The owners of Morizzo Funeral Home; a family owned funeral home, were so kind and truly made such a difficult process much easier. Their prices were also very reasonable and lower than other funeral homes we contacted. Their building is newly constructed, so the rooms, lobby, and etc were very nice. They also put up the funeral / service information on their website and provided us a link we could easily share with our family and friends. In the website, people can also post messages, share pictures, and send flowers and gifts. It was a pleasure working with the Morizzo Family Funeral Home Chapels.

When I lost my husband, I called Ross Morizzo; at Morizzo Funeral Home & Cremation Services. I had met Ross at a business meeting. I learned that Morizzo Funeral Home was a third generation family owned and operated business. When I went to their new facility in Hoffman Estates / South Barrington, Ross was there to greet me. It was warm and friendly with lots of natural light that made me feel like I was walking into a friend's living room. I had no experience with making funeral of cremation arrangements; and Ross sensitively helped me with choices and decisions. Every aspect of dealing with the loss of a loved one was taken care of for me. The services offered by Morizzo Funeral Home were wonderful; and my family and friends felt welcomed and comfortable. I highly recommend Morizzo Funeral Home and Cremation Services.

In the wee hours, between inspired bouts of 'family dynamics', my mother died in hospice and by mid-morning I was starting to get annoyed by the busy-bodies, slobs, and meddlers who wanted to make this about them; Tony and Ross helped put an end to that. With my sister-in-law along for support we discussed what would be appropriate and dignified for the visitation. I then introduced some of the 'requests' from family and mother's close friends with suggestions about how to incorporate them without too much todo. Tony assured me that these would not present any difficulty especially as it would help ease the sorrow. The location itself is conveniently situated, easy in/out with protected turns off Barrington road with ample parking. The facility is clean and well kept, well accoutered and tastefully decorated in a soft palate. The dining area is large with abundant seating, serving, and staging/storage space. The restrooms are tidy and clean-clean. Ross handled the closing well, warmly inviting everyone into the hall and tactfully offering an inclusive prayer for solace and then making a brief announcement about the funeral service. The Morizzo's were most considerate and accommodating to our needs, never a word about adjustments minor or significant. They were professional but not cold when dealing with the necessary legalities, contracts, and other paperwork. All in all they are pleasant gentlemen with whom to attend to the final indignities of life.

We used Morizzo Funeral Home for my Uncle's funeral. The complete funeral service included the following: the care of remains, use of facilities for a one hour visitation, hearse to crematory and the professional services of Funeral Director and staff. It also included the crematory fees. My Mom originally met with Ross on a Friday to plan a brief visitation service for the following Sunday. The process was very efficient and Ross was extremely helpful. As my Uncle was more or less a recluse during the last few decades of his life, we were looking to plan a very small service as we knew that there would not be a large amount of attendees. Ross was extremely accommodating of our wishes to keep the costs minimal in light of the fact that the turnout would be relatively low. Ross has a very relaxed and likable personality. Morizzo's funeral home had a great location, and was very tastefully decorated inside. The building is new (2013), and the place has a very homey and comfortable, yet modern feel to it. The Hoffman Estates location was perfect for us, is it is only about a mile off of I-90 (it is next to The Assembly restaurant.)

Chose Morizzo Funeral Home, after attending a wake for family friend. Was so impressed with how light and not depressing the atmosphere was. Contacted them the morning my mom passed June of 2019, and did not regret my decision. Ross guided us thru the process, never made us feel silly for asking questions about the process. They were very accommodating, even the day of the funeral adjusting the schedule to allow us to drive by my mom's home for a final farewell. Would strongly recommend--staff managed break room keeping coffee supplied, had a nice refrigerator to store food for wake. They took care of everything and let me spend time with mom and family. Definitely will use in the future

I love Morizzo Funeral Home. We have had 2 funerals at Morizzo Funeral Home; and would not think of going anywhere else for anyone in my family or for myself. The place is beautiful; Ross and his Father Tony, are amazing. They make you feel like Family, and they take care of you like no other. I know they made my sister and Mom's journey to the next life comfortable and easy. I have amazing respect for these 2 guys, I love them.

Anthony Morizzo performed the funeral services for my father-in-law and mother-in-law as well as other funeral services for other family members. Morizzo Funeral Home always handled everything with the utmost care and very tastefully. Now we are going to him again, unfortunately, and just speaking on the phone with Ross and Chas. was a pleasure, despite the situation.

Outstanding!! We lost our precious little baby and wanted his remains cremated. We called Morizzo Funeral Chapel; and made an appointment the same day we called to see them. We were told on the phone not to worry about anything, we just needed to come in and sign a few papers. We were also pleasantly surprised to learn that they perform this service essentially for free. $100.00 cremation fee and $50.00 medical examiner free. That's it, unless you would like to buy keepsake urns for a very reasonable price. Btw....This is in STARK CONTRAST to another funeral pallor we called in the area (well known in downtown Barrington) who gave us a problem on the phone about death certificates/paperwork that we'd have to get and then told us due to the baby being born in Chicago they would charge us $250.00 to just pick him up. To top that off when we called the next day to see if we could meet with them we were told they were too busy and could we try them another day. Shame on them!! Bravo to the Morizzo Funeral Home!!!! I hope not to have to use them again for decades, but when we do they now have a lifelong customer.

My brother passed away unexpectedly and under difficult circumstances on a Thursday morning. We researched several funeral homes and it was a Godsend to find Morizzo Funeral Home. Tony and Ross are so compassionate, sympathetic, friendly, and professional to the utmost. The facility is extremely clean and hygienic, while also being incredibly beautiful. I cannot say enough about how well they treated us and worked around our needs, both of these men are cut out for the job. The kitchen facility, bathrooms, lobby, and the visitation rooms are GORGEOUS. Ample parking. This is first-rate service, all the more impressive considering they are dealing with grieving family members. Thank you, Tony and Ross - your support, caring and concern has given my family great peace.
