We recently lost my grandfather and Theis-Gorski helped us make his burial, well, easy. Everyone I spoke with was compassionate and calls were returned promptly. Milos was knowledgeable and helpful through an obviously difficult time. An unfortunate part of life is death and I'd reccomend Theis-Gorski to help you say a final goodbye.

Four months ago my mom was in this Funeral Home, now I have my dad. I just want to say thank you to the whole staff for their sympathy, customer service and the way they took care of my parents; an amazing natural & peaceful look. Miloš was awesome since day one for both of my parents. Keep the good job & sensibility.

We just recently used Theis Gorski for my dads funeral service. I have to say we were beyond pleased with Milos and the crew every step of the way. We had some special requests to include some unique memorial cards and they came through. My dad who is a veteran was able to have a veterans honor which they did all the leg work setting that up and having current veterans there to present my mom with a flag. They had a beautiful video tribute with photos for my dad. And the best gift of all was how they prepared my father. He had been in the nursing home for the last two years but when we saw

When the doctors estimated that our mother had only days left, my sister searched Yelp for Funeral Homes near the Irving Park/Avondale/Portage Park neighborhoods that provided cremation services. The Theis-Gorski reviews stood out. She spoke with Milos who was very friendly and professional. We provided them with the hospice facility our mother was staying at and the church where her mass service was going to be held, and they took care of everything else. With all that was going on, it was comforting to not have to worry about the logistics. Working with Milos at Theis-Gorski was a very positive

The funeral home is so perfect, full of kind hearted people, really affordable, and so helpful. We had an unexpected loss and it was so hard to accept the reality but they helped us organize every step of how we want. From the Perez family, we want to thank you for everything. I promise you the funeral home is perfect.

I've had the unfortunate experience of burying my mom and grandma 12 years apart, we and chose this funeral home the first time with my mom's death because it was nearby. I was only 16 and my grandma handled the arrangements for the most part. 12 years later this past week my grandma passed away - still living in the same place she had lived with my mom so I made arrangements here again. I remember my mom's wake and funeral being taken care of very well so it made sense to use their services again. They made it very easy to handle every thing in a very difficult time of grieving

Helpful to have the level of commitment and support that was offered to our family. Funerals are never fun nor easy to work through with a large family and complex family dynamics but getting through them is much easier when you have a funeral director that will calmly take charge and provide direction. My family and I appreciate your services in this tough time.
