Personalized funerals and memorials

Surprise Funeral Care is a nondenominational funeral home, conducting funerals and memorials for people of all backgrounds, faiths and cultures. We help you incorporate the religious traditions and family customs important to you.

We also believe that every service should be as unique as the life lived. Our attentive, experienced team is here to turn inspiration into reality. Start with a story. Tell us about your loved one’s passions, personality, hobbies and interests, and we’ll capture the little things that made them special. Perhaps it’s a beach-themed cookout for your surfer or pet-friendly celebration for your animal lover. Whatever the wish, it’s our job to create a memorable memorial.

Whether you want to arrange a traditional funeral service or modern celebration of life, large gathering or more intimate service, we will work with you one-on-one to ensure your needs and budget are met. From floral arrangements to music selections, decor and more, we guide you through your choices with care.

Cremation in Surprise

There are many options for cremation in Surprise—and they're not all equal. We specialize in cremation services that honor loved ones in personalized ways, and families love our all-inclusive pricing. With expertise in scattering ashes and a friendly team who pays attention to every detail, we provide service that is second to none.

More and more people are choosing cremation over traditional burial, but most aren’t familiar with the many options:

• a cremation without a funeral or memorial service of any kind.
• a funeral with your loved one present, followed by cremation.
• a cremation followed by a scattering, cemetery memorialization or celebration of life—or all three.
