RESOURCES AFTERCARE
We understand what full service really means.
As a locally owned funeral home with a long history in Iowa City, Lensing Funeral and Cremation Service understands your needs during the hardest of times. When a death occurs, there are details to take care of. Decisions and arrangements to be made. Our professional, licensed funeral directors assume those responsibilities for you, and you can depend on us to provide a service that is truly memorable, flawlessly planned, and correct to the smallest detail.

If you have any questions about funerals, you can get immediate answers to your questions by accessing Funeral Questions.
|
We believe that no two people are alike, so funerals should be highly individual and highly personal. Perhaps the most important part of our service is explaining the many ways you can make a funeral a personalized, meaningful celebration of the life that has been lived. The use of memory boards and tables, the creation of a photo video montage, even establishing a memorial in their name, are just some of the ways to honor the memory of a loved one.

There are some decisions too precious to regret.

Caring before the funeral
Our concern for you and your family begins well before a death occurs, and continues long after the funeral service is over. After all, powerful feelings last for a very long time, and it’s natural to feel grief at the loss of a loved one. We help families cope with the difficult times through our complete lending library of books, videos, and brochures that can help ease the grieving process. There are resources on funeral customs and etiquette, dealing with loss, explaining death to children, and much more. We are happy to share this important information with you at any time.

|
Because death is hard on everyone, we offer a variety of materials to help you cope with grief.
|
And afterward
When you or someone you love needs help dealing with the death of a loved one, turn to us. Our aftercare program assists those who need some additional emotional support. We maintain close ties with support groups, counselors, psychologists, and other community service professionals, and we sponsor memorial services, seminars and workshops in cooperation with public health agencies.
Before, during, and after
our family is here for you.
