Hoffmann Schneider & Kitchen Funeral Home and Crematory Thank you for following Hoffmann Schneider and Kitchen Funeral Home & Cremation Service, a Dubuque tradition since 1846. Hoffmann Sr. Hoffmann.

Welcome to Hoffmann Schneider & Kitchen Funeral Home and Cremation Service. We are conveniently located in the heart of the West end of Dubuque on Asbury Road. With our two chapels and large family lounge, our funeral home is able to provide your family with spacious, yet homelike amenities. And combine that with our longstanding tradition of excellent funeral care in Dubuque, you can trust us to be there for you and your family when you need us the most. Our Dubuque tradition began in 1846 when Hoffmann Mortuary was opened on fifteenth & Clay (Central) by Mathias M. The business was turned over to Mathias M. Hoffmann II in 1878 and in 1916, the Mortuary was turned over to Mathias' son, Alois M. In 1939, Alois and Mabel moved the mortuary to 1640 Main in downtown Dubuque which was at that time known as the Lacey Mansion. Jim and Sharon Schneider purchased the mortuary in 1985, changing the name to the Hoffmann-Schneider Funeral Home. Following the untimely death of Dennis Kitchen, Jim and Sharon purchased the Dennis Kitchen Funeral Home, located at 3860 Asbury Road and now known as the Hoffmann Schneider & Kitchen Funeral Home and Cremation Service. In 2019, the Main Street location was consolidated into Hoffmann Schneider & Kitchen Funeral Home and Cremation Service on Asbury Road. At Hoffmann Schneider & Kitchen Funeral Home and Cremation Service, we take pride in our rich legacy and vow to continue providing the Dubuque area with compassionate, personalized service for you and your family during your time of need.

🕊️ Today is National Grief Awareness Day 🕊️

Grief is not something to be “fixed,” but a journey of love that takes time and gentle care. We are grateful for our friends at Hospice of Dubuque for the resources and support they provide to those who are grieving.

If you are on your own journey of grief, be gentle with yourself. There is no “right way”—only your way.

If someone you love is grieving, here are simple ways to show up:
Listen first. Do they need space or a shoulder to lean on?
Pay attention. Notice if they share more—or if they’d rather not talk. Respect both.
Give time. Even if they don’t want to talk often, send a short note, a heart emoji, or a message without expectation. Small gestures keep the connection alive and can mean more than you realize.

Your presence, patience, and care remind them they are not alone.
