In a time of grieving and sorrow, everyone at the Tippacanoe Memory Gardens were comforting and professional. They were also understanding of our financial situation and made sure we had the best service for our angel under the circumstances. I would use Tippacanoe Memory Gardens for the entire service. Thank you!

We had my Father's funeral this past Wednesday. It was a total train wreck. They had the front room get up and move, because they didn't make room for the Marines to fold the flag. Their were ants and spiders crawling all over the floor. It was very unorganized

The folks here at Tippecanoe Memorial were most helpful and accommodating to us in our time of need. Jessica personally was very helpful and kind in answering all our questions with clear explanations of their process and services.

I had a wonderful experience with Tippecanoe Memory Gardens. The staff went out of their way to make sure my mothers burial was done with care and dignity. They even replaced the bronze vase that had been stolen many years ago from the grave stone. Wonderful, professional people.

Everyone at Tippecanoe Memory Gardens was so kind and compassionate, when my Dad passed! They made a difficult time feel easy and calm. They were not pushy. They never made me feel like they didn't have time for one more question. The service was absolutely perfect and exactly what I wanted. I wouldn't hesitate one second to recommend them to anyone!
