Chapel Hill-Butler Funeral Home

Chapel Hill-Butler Funeral Home, located at 701 North 94th Street in Kansas City, Kansas, is a distinguished provider of funeral, cremation, and cemetery services with a legacy dating back to 1905. Originally founded as Joseph A. Butler Funeral Home, the establishment has evolved through decades of compassionate service, merging with the respected Fulton-Nickel Funeral Home in 1968. The adjacent Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens, a 60-acre cemetery park established in 1948, became the new home for the funeral home in 2003, creating a seamless, single-site location that eliminates lengthy processions and offers families a peaceful, convenient setting for honoring their loved ones.

The funeral home’s 6,700-square-foot facility features a Colonial design with a single-level, wheelchair-accessible layout. It boasts a spacious 180-seat chapel—one of the largest in the city—a dining area that accommodates up to 80 guests, and a state-of-the-art audiovisual system suitable for a variety of services and musical preferences. Families can choose from traditional funerals, contemporary memorials, life celebrations, and cremation services, with options tailored to diverse religious and cultural backgrounds. The facility also includes a public lounge, consultation offices, ample free parking, and an on-site chapel, ensuring comfort and convenience for all visitors.

Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens spans 60 acres of rolling hills, manicured landscapes, and mature hardwood trees, featuring majestic lakeside mausoleums and 12 unique gardens for traditional ground burial, including a Masonic garden, lawn crypt garden, and the Garden of Valor. Specialized cremation memorialization options are available throughout the park. The cemetery has served thousands of families from all faiths since 1948, and its serene environment provides a lasting tribute to those interred there.

The funeral home is deeply committed to honoring veterans, partnering with American Legion Post 188 to host annual Veterans Appreciation Memorial Services and maintaining an Avenue of Flags on patriotic holidays. During the winter season, a special Service of Remembrance offers support to those grieving during the holidays.
