Maggie was small in stature but large in heart. She lived her life seeking friendships and trying to be accepted in a sometimes difficult world. What she lacked in confidence in herself she gained in empathy for others, often going above and beyond for those who were vulnerable or in need. If you had an ailment, Maggie knew at least one remedy that might help you.

The basic Military Funeral Honors (MFH) ceremony consists of the folding and presentation of the United States flag to the veterans' family and the playing of Taps. The ceremony is performed by a funeral honors detail consisting of at least two members of the Armed Forces. The Funeral Honors rendered to you or your veteran will be determined by the status of the veteran.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) furnishes upon request, at no charge to the applicant, a Government headstone or marker for the unmarked grave of any deceased eligible veteran in any cemetery around the world, regardless of their date of death. When the grave is already marked, applicants will have the option to apply for either a traditional headstone or marker, or a new device (available spring 2009).

We met last week with Brian Powell to finalize cremation arrangements and the selection of the urn. Brian Powell was extremely well informed on the various different local cemetery needs.
Mr Powell is a caring and compassionate yet highly professional individual. He Informed us he was available for any our questions 24/7.
Their prices are extremely reasonable. We would recommend the Powell Funeral and mortuary in Willowbrook Illinois to anyone.
They can take you from the steps of pre-planning funeral services to the actual funeral burial or cremation process. The Powell firm have their own crematorium

We had an unfortunate death in the family. A 32 year old promising life was cut short. I had to arrange for funeral and with no previous experience, I was unsure and anxious. Brian Powell team made it simple and straightforward for me. They have consistently gone above and beyond and assisted with unique requests like setting up a zoom call to cover the funeral. They are both easy to work with and very responsive. I unequivocally recommend them!

Brian is very professional and a master of this job and the process. He took care of my family for our mother’s funeral. He was in contact with us constantly and offered us many options. His attention to every detail was important as we relied on his knowledge to make decisions. Thank you for everything Brian.

He handled everything that was needed to be done, and was always available to us. His commitment to excellence is inspiring. His work ethic and dedication to making sure everything was perfect truly resulted in an honoring send off for mom and peace for our family.

Brian Powell personally handled all of the details of the funeral and cremation for our dear friend. A nicer and more polite person you will not find. All of the arrangements were handled so well and at a very reasonable cost. Much less than every other funeral home we contacted.
We would recommend anyone to use Powell Funeral Directors. Very professional.
