Dames has served families with care and compassion since 1854, guiding them through grief with sensitivity, respect, and honor—focused on what’s right for you and your loved one We are not like other funeral providers. Not in philosophy, not in practice. We are dedicated to the belief that the process of grief is not a business proposition but rather an emotional, human passage to be treated with
dignity and conscience. That is our sole motivation. We are not like others, nor do we strive to be. We promise to take you through this difficult time with care, with sensitivity, and with thoughtfulness. We do not hurry decisions. We do not feel there is a relationship between what is spent and what has been lost. There is only what is right for you and your family. We encourage you to decide what your own approach and values dictate, what makes you comfortable, what your loved one would have wanted, and to follow that guidance.
