Alex A. Kopicki founded the Kopicki Funeral Home in the Pilsen area of Chicago in 1909. Gerald A. expanded the funeral business to serve the needs of the Chicagoland area in the 1930s. George T. founded Heritage Funeral Home to meet the demand of families who moved from Chicago to its suburbs in 1974, with the purchase of the Herron and Son Funeral Home located in the heart of Berwyn for the previous 50 years.
Kevin T. joined his father George in 1983 to complete the forth generation in the funeral business. In 1984, the Heritage Funeral Home location expanded and remodeled to include private parking, three beautifully appointed chapels, facilities for the handicapped, and a casket selection room. The Kopicki family is dedicated to continue the "Heritage" of Service on which our family of funeral business was founded.

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).
