Services
Cress operates eight distinct facilities across Dane County, allowing families to select locations based on proximity to home, place of worship, or cemetery. Each location maintains independent contact numbers and addresses. The network includes three Madison locations (West, East, Far West) plus satellite offices in Sun Prairie, Stoughton, McFarland, Deerfield, and Waunakee. Specific chapel capacities and facility amenities vary by location.
Cress structures their services around three phases of family care: before death (pre-planning), during loss (arrangement and ceremony), and after (grief support through HeartLight Center partnership).
Cress Funeral & Cremation Service operates eight locations throughout the Madison, Wisconsin metropolitan area, providing families with geographic flexibility and round-the-clock accessibility. The funeral home maintains a 24/7 phone line at 608-238-3434 for immediate needs. Their service philosophy centers on honoring the dignity of the deceased while counseling families through grief, with explicit commitment to accommodating each family's traditions, culture, and financial means. Cress has established a formal partnership with HeartLight Center to extend grief support beyond the immediate funeral period, offering support groups, education, and programming for ongoing bereavement care.
