Sax-Tiedemann continues to serve generations of families with generations of ours.

Before Franklin Park was incorporated, Sax-Tiedemann Funeral Home was there. The family has been serving the area for over 90 years. Peter Thomas Tiedemann opened the funeral home with Maurice Sax in 1924. Only 5 years later, Mr. Sax sold his shares to Mr. Tiedemann. Peter Thomas Tiedemann’s daughter Jean Tiedemann Dawson and her husband Clyde Dawson were the second generation to provide service to the community. Today, their son Stephen, with his wife Tammi maintain the family commitment to service. Their son Timothy represents the fourth generation of the family to assist families in need, for nearly a century.

There is a strong sense of community. The Tiedemann’s and Dawson’s have been involved in nearly every important event in the community dating back to the time when it officially became a community. They have been an important part of the lives of so many families at their most difficult times. Their mantra has been to treat everyone like family, because in a very real way, they are. New generations of families and new families continue to come into the area and the Sax-Tiedemann Funeral Home continues to provide outstanding service in the community and be there for families in need. Just like always.

For information on services; at-need, pre-planning, cremation, memorials or any questions, please contact us any time of day or night 847-678-1950 or www.sax-tiedemann.com. We’re very happy to provide a tour of our facilities to any family who would like to visit us.

Our Home is Your Home

Posted on April 14, 2016 by saxtfh under Video

Since 1895, Sax-Tiedemann Funeral Home has existed. We’ve added on several times. We’ve modified and remodeled our space to meet the needs of every new generation. While the core of our building is the same, our parlor space has changed, our rest area and refreshment areas have changed and have become more spacious and comfortable. We want people to feel as much at home as they can in their home away from home where they are meeting with their guests. Technology has offered us an opportunity to make things a little bit easier with a registration kiosk that will eliminate difficult to read handwriting and provide pre-addressed envelopes to each of your guests who attended the visitation. We are committed to easing a difficult time as much as we possibly can. The details can be left completely to us.

For information about pre-need or at-need services, please call 847-678-1950 or email us by clicking info@sax-tiedemann.com We’re very happy to provide a tour of our facilities to any family who would like to visit us.

Beyond the funeral service – Afterwards

Posted on November 24, 2015 by saxtfh under Blog, Video

Sax-Tiedemann is here to serve you throughout the visitation and funeral services. We’re also here to serve you beyond. There can be any number of issues that may come up well after the initial services are completed. We maintain our death certificates forever. It isn’t uncommon for that need to arise with regard to insurance or real estate matters. Our relationship extends and grows with your family. Each year we have a remembrance service for those who have passed away during the year or really anytime. It’s a wonderful opportunity to remember and celebrate the life of a loved one who meant so much to you. We continue to be of help and on call to your family in perpetuity. You’re our neighbor.

For additional information on services, either at need or pre-planning, please call 847-678-1950 or click here to email us at sax-tiedemann.com

How do you want to say Good Bye?

Posted on September 29, 2015 by saxtfh under Video

At Sax-Tiedemann, this is the most important question we ask our families. It’s important for them to know and understand that while they are honoring a loved one and often carrying out the wishes of the deceased, at a visitation and funeral services it’s really about offering the people who attend, the opportunity to say “Good Bye” in the manner they wish to do so also. So we ask that very important question, “How do you want to say good bye?” Families immediately begin to feel a bit more at ease with the arrangements. They come to understand their decisions to be of importance to both their loved one and the family left behind to celebrate the life of a special person. While it is a very simple question and would seem to even be an obvious one, it still causes a family a momentary pause to consider themselves a very important part of the entire service.

Call us at 847-678-1950 or email us at: info@sax-tiedemann.com for more information or a pre-planning consultation.

Pre-Arranging your funeral arrangements is often a good option.

Posted on July 28, 2015 by saxtfh under Blog, Video

You may have a number of good reasons for pre-planning your funeral services. Many financial advisers have made this part of their client’s portfolio. In many cases, a person doesn’t have family living nearby or possibly even a close relative to handle their affairs. Still other people wish to lessen any burden on family, make their choices known or secure this portion of their concerns ahead of time. No matter the circumstances, pre-need planning is a safe alternative. At Sax-Tiedemann, a separate and independent annuity account is set up entirely within your control if you choose to prepay for your arrangements. You can also come in and simply pre-plan so we have a file saved for when you or your family need to access the information regarding your wishes. All consultations on Pre-Arrangements are without cost and without obligation. We’re here to discuss Pre-arrangements or at need arrangements 24 hours a day. Call us at 847-678-1950 or email us at: info@sax-tiedemann.com for more information or a pre-planning consultation.

A Tribute to Our Veterans…

Posted on May 19, 2015 by saxtfh under Uncategorized, Video

Immediately next door to Sax-Tiedemann Funeral Home is a Memorial in the Village of Franklin Park, honoring the men and women who have served in the armed forces. The beautiful memorial is sponsored by the American Legion and serves as a beautiful monument with the inscription “They served to preserve our freedom”.

Veterans have earned a particular right, by their service to our country, which all of us, particularly those of us at Sax-Tiedemann appreciate”, states Stephen Dawson. All of those rights earned by their service are something we work very hard to make sure families are aware of, from tributes at visitation, military honors, to burial at a National Cemetery such as Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery in Elwood, IL. We are there to ensure that every Veteran receives the honor and grateful thanks of our nation.
