About Us

As 5th Generation Owners and Operators, we know how important it is to continue to offer exemplary personal service and compassion at a fair price to every family we serve. No matter what faith, customs or traditions, Hitzeman Funeral Home welcomes all denominations and we treat everyone with the same respect and compassion they deserve.


We serve the residents of Chicago, Brookfield and the Western Suburbs. Yet our reach goes beyond those borders. Whether you live in the area or are located out of state or out of the country, we can assist you and your family, no matter where you call home. Just know we are dedicated to doing everything possible to make the process of planning or pre-planning a funeral as easy as possible.


Our longevity and success is a testament to the faith and trust our patrons have bestowed upon us through the years. We would be honored to serve you.

Our history

The Hitzeman family is very proud of our history serving the community for over one hundred years. We invite you to read about our business and family history as written by Laura (Hitzeman) Tomecko when she was in eighth grade, in February 1997. Much has happened in the years since Laura completed her assignment; we are pleased to share our more recent milestones with you.
