We provide your family with the highest level of quality service at a fair, honest price that your loved one deserves. We understand this and support the idea that you do not have to spend a great deal of money to properly remember a loved one.
The Emmick Family has deep roots in Seattle and decades of experience serving local families. Craig and his wife grew up in the Seattle area and raised their two sons in West Seattle. Craig has been a licensed Funeral Director & Embalmer for over 40 years working in Seattle and West Seattle area funeral homes. In 2014, his son Michael completed his apprenticeship and college mortuary science courses and is now a licensed Funeral Director & Embalmer as well.
We are not like other funeral homes or cremation services. We are a fully licensed provider specializing in cremation and burial services with no sales pressure like many, traditional funeral homes and cemeteries. Because we do not have a large funeral home facility with viewing rooms and chapels, we have lower overhead costs which allow us to pass on those savings to families we serve. We can facilitate burial, cremation, aquacremation, and green burial arrangements by telephone, fax, email, in your home, or in our office facilities located on Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood at Lake View Cemetery. It doesn’t look or feel like a funeral home because it isn’t. We’ve designed a casual and comfortable place to make the process easy to complete.
Emmick Family Funeral Home & Cremation Services - Lake View also believes that attitudes and customs are changing regarding end-of-life services. From simple, basic cremation to full traditional, celebration of life funeral services, We can accommodate all wishes and requests. Today families are presented with more choices than ever before when it’s time to select a burial or cremation provider. It won’t take more than a few minutes to understand why Emmick Family Funeral Services is different… and better than the alternatives. We invite inquiry and comparison to any provider in the state of Washington.
Sincerely,
The Emmick Family
“Committed to your Family and our community for two generations”
