Amarillo Funeral Home
Funeral Planning Made Easy
Lighthouse funeral home offers a simpler alternative to traditional funeral services. Our goal is to provide memorial and cremation services at an affordable cost to make things easier for you during your time of need. To better assist our clients, we have curated a step-by-step guide with all the necessary forms and processes for cremation or burial. This guide allows the necessary plans and paperwork to be completed from the comfort of their own homes. At any time in the journey with us, our knowledgeable staff is available to help with some of the difficult decisions regarding cremation, traditional funerals, or memorial services. Funeral pre-plans with us are fully transferable. We can also work with any pre-plans from other funeral homes as well. Our services do not require an office visit, but one of our licensed funeral directors will always be available to meet over the phone or in-person to ensure all your questions are answered.
No Pressure Funeral Home Guidance
Many funeral homes and mortuaries offer directors a paid incentive to upsell clients on services, but with Lighthouse, you can rest easy knowing that all of our funeral directors receive the same pay regardless of the price of your funeral and are compensated for the quality of their customer service rather than the amount of money their clients pay. This ensures pre-planning and other service needs are handled by people who are incentivized to provide you with what is best for your family, not what is most expensive. It’s a good feeling knowing you have someone with your best interest at heart on your side at one of the most difficult and vulnerable moments in life.
Honoring Your Most Loved
Every person is unique. When someone you love passes, their funeral services should be tailored to reflect their individual characteristics, traits, and desires. Each funeral, cremation, and memorial service we provide are customized to the specific requirements of our clients in a way that doesn’t limit their options. Lighthouse Funeral and Cremation Services has a chapel, a space for any of our clients to use, but we also partner and have close relationships with local venues, organizations, and religious groups to provide families the ability to hold services at nearly any location in the city. This flexibility gives our clients the opportunity to include the most meaningful activities, food, drink, or traditions that best honor their loved one in their service. Lighthouse Amarillo funeral home makes curating a specialized and meaningful service its highest priority to ensure this event creates the most cherished memories in years to come.

About Lighthouse Funeral and Cremation Services
A New Type of Funeral Home
—The flexibility our services offer helps cater to the specific needs of each individual, no matter how unique—
We are a family-owned Amarillo funeral home that has been in the industry for more than a decade. Our idea for a funeral home came about after a friend who lives out of state was driven to charge unreasonable amounts of money to various credit cards just to pay for a simple funeral for her husband. This is when we knew something had to change.

Funeral & cremation FAQs
How much does a funeral or cremation cost in Amarillo?
Direct cremation is our most affordable option, and a full service can be tailored to fit any budget. We believe in honest, no-pressure pricing and will give you an itemized price list so you know exactly what you are paying for. Call us or ask for our General Price List.
What is the difference between burial and cremation?
Burial places your loved one in a casket in the ground or a mausoleum; cremation reduces the body to ashes your family can keep, bury, or scatter. Either option can include a visitation, funeral, or memorial service — it comes down to what feels right for your family.
Can we still have a service if we choose cremation?
Absolutely. Cremation can be paired with a full funeral, a memorial service, or a simple gathering, held either before or after the cremation. We will help you plan a farewell that truly honors your loved one.
Can I plan and pay for a funeral in advance?
Yes. Pre-planning lets you record your wishes and lock in today’s pricing, sparing your family difficult decisions later. Our prepaid plans are fully transferable, and we can also transfer a plan you made with another funeral home.
What should I do when a loved one passes away?
Call us any time, day or night, at (806) 418-6509. We will guide you through the very first steps, bring your loved one into our care, and walk with you through every decision from there.
Do you help veterans and their families with military honors?
Yes. We coordinate military funeral honors with the appropriate branch of service and help your family claim the VA burial benefits your loved one earned.
