Hills Funeral Home, Ltd.

Hills Funeral Home, Ltd., a trusted name in funeral service for over eight decades, is proud to serve families from its new location at Lack & Sons Chapel in Hickory Hills, Illinois. Founded in 1941 as Bukauskas Funeral Home in Chicago’s Roseland community, the business has remained family-owned and independent through three generations of dedicated service. Today, under the leadership of the Bukauskas family and founder George D. Peppas, Hills Funeral Home continues to provide compassionate, personalized care to families of all faiths and backgrounds.

In 2024, Hills Funeral Home relocated just nine blocks north to the historic Lack & Sons Chapel at 9236 South Roberts Road. Despite the new address, the same trusted directors, staff, and phone number remain in place, ensuring continuity and familiarity for the families they serve. The facility is fully accessible, offering a wheelchair‑accessible entrance and parking, an onsite chapel, and free parking. Services include traditional burial, cremation, entombment, memorial services, and assistance with out‑of‑town deaths. The team specializes in Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, and Eastern Orthodox funerals but welcomes families of all denominations with respect and care.

Hills Funeral Home is highly rated online and holds a longstanding reputation for excellence. Their experienced directors—Leonard F. Bukauskas (first generation), Frank and Leonard Bukauskas (second generation), and Jason Bukauskas (third generation)—bring decades of knowledge and a genuine commitment to every family. They offer prearranged funeral planning, assistance with veterans’ burial benefits, and a full range of options from simple to elaborate services. Superior embalming and attention to detail ensure that each service reflects the life and wishes of the loved one.

Whether arranging a public or private funeral, a memorial service, or a direct cremation, Hills Funeral Home provides a warm, welcoming environment. Their dedication to personalized care, combined with their independent, family‑owned heritage, makes them a trusted pillar of the community. For those seeking a funeral home that truly cares, Hills Funeral Home, Ltd. stands ready to guide families with sincerity, knowledge, and compassion during life’s most difficult moments.
