Learn how a Life Story Funeral Director can create a meaningful & relevant funeral. At Heritage Life Story Funeral Homes, we honor each life by writing, sharing, and preserving the Life Story. Writing the Life Story of each family member ensures that the stories are saved and NEVER forgotten. Generations can pass, and the Life Stories will live on.
Services
We all have our own. And together, one with another, they form the rich fabric of life that we often refer to as our heritage. There's a heritage in everyone's life story, and there's a heritage in the life story of our business, too. The heritage of our business is about people, the decisions they made, and why they made them.
At Heritage Life Story Funeral Homes, we exclusively blend all the elements together under one roof. We strive to make your Life Story experience the most meaningful and memorable all while honoring the memory of your loved one. We offer a variety of ways to make the visitation experience for you and your guests one that is most personal.
We are no longer serving families from this location but all information and records are accessible at our other locations. Funeral homes that are exclusive providers of the Life Story Experience are the only funeral homes who preserve the Life Story in print, digital film, and on the web. The Life Story is the foundation for better visitations, better funerals, and better goodbyes.
Every life has a story. Just like we save photographs, peoples' stories need to be written and saved, telling of the footprint they left, giving comfort to others now and in the future-a springboard for their memories. You've heard it said that a photo is worth a thousand words. True, but photos alone lack the real substance of the memories connected with them.
To talk with us about your specific wishes, whether it be about cremation, burial options or memorial services, call Heritage Life Story Funeral Homes at either (616) 361-2613 or (616) 453-8263, or send an email to info@heritagelifestory.com. Allow our Life Story Funeral Directors to guide and arrange the memorial events that are right for you.

We could not be more grateful for the exceptional services given to us by Lee and his team at Heritage in our time of loss. The attention to details, the immediate replies to emails and phone calls and the quality of it all were excellent. They new just what was needed at every moment throughout the process and did it all so professionally with much kindness and compassion. Thank you, Heritage staff.

So my wife works in a restaurant. The other day two employees one names Melissa or Michelle came in with two other woman and had lunch. It’s Halloween so my wife had her nails done for the holiday. For whatever reason, one of these woman called and complained about them. In what world do u care what’s on someone’s nails? Should you be more concerned with the business u run? How did she hurt or effect ur life negatively in anyway? If it bothered u so much to the point u had to complain AFTER you left, why did u stay? Now she can’t work, so I’ll
Make sure my mothers and her mothers and

My family has used Heritage for two services of our loved ones, and each time have received exceptional care & service. In two very hard and difficult times, the time, kindness, respect, attention, and service that we were given by Heritage were a huge comfort to us. In our darkest hours, Heritage gave us a clear guided path as we walked thru the funeral process. From the very fine details and well beyond, Heritage goes the extra mile to ensure quality and care.

Had a very good experience here. They are very professional, extremely easy to communicate with, and also very accommodating. They put together everything really nicely and couldn’t of asked for better service. The prices seemed pretty high for extras, but their easy communication and quick arrangement of things makes it worth using them.

I cannot say enough good things about Heritage Life Story. Scott went above and beyond to make sure my father's funeral was a respectful remembrance of him. I received many compliments on the remarks Scott made at the graveside service; he was kind, hopeful and really captured the essence of my father. It meant so much to us that he took the time to learn about our family and help us through this painful time. Thank you.

I cannot say enough positive things about working with Heritage Life Story Funeral Home. Their kindness, professionalism and understanding of our needs during such a sad time was beyond compare. They listened and remembered details that I didn't even remember sharing. They made my dad's funeral feel like such a personal and special event. I am still receiving positive comments on what a fabulous job Lee did in orchestrating every detail. Their follow-up care for my family was phenomenal. I highly recommend their services, you will not be disappointed.

In a time that our family was so hurt and confused, Heritage Life Story Funeral Home’s was there to guide us step by step which resulted on the day of our dads Celebration Of Life becoming just that.......a celebration. The simplest of details were not left out and because of that every burden was lifted off of us. Really what this all amounted to was that Heritage was the first step that enabled our family to start healing. Talking to people a few days later everyone has been commenting about our dads celebration. It was very well thought out and many said there is no comparison in their minds

In a time of grief we were able to enjoy our Daddy's life through the professional, helpful, and kindness of Heritage Life Sotry Funeral Home. Lee and all of the staff seemed to bend over backwards to be sure we could focus on our family and honoring our Daddy well. His story was captured in print, through pictures, and video and hundreds of people were blessed by it - all because of the mission and dedicated work of Heritage Life Story Funeral Home!
From the initial meeting with guidance, to our family telling our Daddys story, to setting up the displays, to capturing moments and memories from
