Testimonials 

Bensons are family. We had our 1st funeral with them, 34 years ago. Since have had several parted loved ones , placed in their loving care. Recently, we lost 2 of my brothers, 6 weeks apart. The staff was beyond sympathetic. My mom is 85 yrs old, needless to say her grief was intense. Laura helped us decide best way to handle and prepare a memorial for both of them. Even going as far as offering the chapel to us to hold memorial at. They are like what hospice does for patients and families. Takes a tragedy and/or loss, and makes it lighter, less stressful and provides knowledge, compassion and complete, start to finish care.

Mariella did an amazing job in taking such great care of my son Joseph. She’s compassionate and very accommodating to our family.
Laura, Stuart, and Maria were very nice people who helped us through this very most difficult time in our lives.
I truly commend their professionalism and love for grieving families.
And highly recommend their service and expertise.
The funeral home is well maintained and clean especially during this time when pandemic scares us.
I’m so glad they are in the neighborhood especially when you feel lost after losing a very dear son. Thank you so much for everything. God bless you more.

Sincerely,

First Class Funeral Services showed great respect and care throughout. No hoops to jump through, or multiple calls to make the Benson Family and Staff took care of all the phone calls and planning needed. By doing so took a lot of stress off our family during this difficult time. My family and I highly recommend them. It was as if they took us under their family wing and carried us through the hard days. Thank you for all you have done for our family.

Our family was very pleased with the services for my father at the Benson Family Funeral Home. Stuart and Laura Benson handled everything just perfectly. The chapel was beautiful and every detail was taken care of so we did not need to worry. It is so nice to work with the Benson Family - they have been a part of our neighborhood for over 50 years. Nice to know there are still some family businesses in Chicago. Beautiful surroundings and warm and welcoming chapel. The funeral staff was also exceptional - Mariella Trevino and Alma Carrasco - so professional and compassionate - you can tell they love their work and it really shines through to all of the people around them. Thank you Benson Family Funeral Home - I know you will continue to shine as a bright light for all of the families in the Chicago community! Debbie & Mike Maczko
