Dear Downers Grove and Westmont community,
For over 90 years, Toon Funeral Homes has served your community during its hardest moments with kindness and compassion. For generations, your families have placed their trust in Toon Funeral Homes, and that trust was held in the highest regard.
When the Toon family decided to retire from the funeral profession, they carefully chose a successor with whom to entrust the families they have served over the years, including all of the pre-planned and prepaid funerals. Knollcrest Funeral Homes are honored to be the funeral homes that the Toon family has selected to carry on their legacy.
If you aren’t familiar with the Knollcrest family, we’d like to introduce ourselves. In 1989, I looked around the area from my home on Lincoln Avenue (next to Lester Elementary), and saw a need for a funeral home centrally located in the near west suburbs. I found a spot just up Fairview-Meyers Road, by Montini Catholic High School, and moved my family there. For more than 3 decades, we have served the area, earning a reputation as professional and personal. Our staff are ready to use our expertise to guide your family through difficult moments into the future.
Robert J. Van Staalduinen
Founder and President,
Knollcrest Funeral Home
