Little & Sons, Inc.

Little & Sons Funeral Home, located at 1301 Main Street in Beech Grove, Indiana, is a cherished family-operated funeral home with a rich history dating back to 1927. Founded by George and Naomi Liddil, the business began at 23rd and Talbott streets in Indianapolis. After George’s untimely death, their son Vernon and his wife Alma moved the funeral home to Beech Grove, operating from a rented storefront at 5th and Main streets while living upstairs and running an ambulance service. Over the years, the funeral home relocated several times before the community rallied to help the family build their own facility at the corner of 13th Avenue and Main Street in 1958—the very location that still serves families today. In 1986, Vernon and Alma’s children—Jim, Lee, and Kay—took over the business, expanding to a second location on East Stop 11 Road in Indianapolis in 1995 to better serve the growing south side communities. Eventually, the family joined the Dignity Memorial® network, ensuring their legacy of compassionate care continues under the guidance of Kay Little, who remains actively involved in pre-planning and community support.

Today, Little & Sons Funeral Home offers a comprehensive range of services, including traditional funerals, cremation options, and personalized memorials. They believe every life is unique and celebrate individuality through themed tributes—whether honoring a racing enthusiast with a checkered-flag send-off or a gardening lover with personalized seed packets. The funeral home features multiple chapels, a spacious reception area, and an onsite chapel, all designed to accommodate gatherings of any size. Their team is experienced in planning both simple and elaborate services, ensuring families receive the highest level of care and attention. Cremation services are also available, with options ranging from direct cremation to full funeral services before or after cremation, guided by CANA-licensed crematory operators.

Pre-planning is a key focus, allowing individuals to lock in current prices, relieve loved ones of difficult decisions, and customize every detail—from music to memorial location. The funeral home offers a 100% service guarantee, 24/7 availability, and flexible prepaid plans that are transferable across North America. Accessibility is a priority, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking lot. Little & Sons has earned a stellar 4.8-star rating on Google Maps and 4.9 stars on their website, reflecting the trust and gratitude of the community they have served for over 90 years.
