When it was time to make Dadโ€™s final arrangements, the staff at Lensing offered compassionate understanding and a full array of services. When Dad passed, Alex took charge and walked us through the process like heโ€™s known us for years - actually he has. All options were presented. None were pushed. Lensing has helped us through two long distance interments. They made them work in memorable fashion. Follow-up has been terrific. Great folks to work with.

Michael and the rest of the Lensing team were amazing. They were instrumental in guiding my family through the full celebration of life process. From the initial reach out to post celebration, the team handled our event with care and attention to detail, all while being encouraging and sympathetic during a difficult time for my family. I would 100% recommend the Lensing team to handle my or other services.

We have worked with Lensing for as long as I can remeber, which shows they never dissapoint. Although there were some unexpected stress added to our day of my grandmothers funeral, they were quick to acknowledge the situation and made up for that, which we do appreciate.

We didnโ€™t have much time to plan with Lensing Funeral and Cremation Service. My husband became ill, we had a few days to get everything in order as a family. They treated us with such dignity and respect and were so very accommodating to our needs. Any problem we were dealing with as a family, they had a solution for us. I highly recommend their services!!!

Lensing Funeral Home has been a compassionate, steady presence for my familyโ€”and for the Iowa Cityโ€“Coralville communityโ€”for generations. Weโ€™ve relied on their care for decades, and most recently, they supported us through the loss of my Uncle Jack with a level of kindness, professionalism, and respect that exceeded every expectation. From the visitation to the funeral, every detail was handled with genuine thoughtfulness. The Lensing team offers those small, meaningful touches that bring comfort in the hardest momentsโ€”things you donโ€™t even realize you need until someone experienced and gentle provides them. Nothing ever feels rushed or routine; everything feels personal. What truly sets Lensing apart is the care that continues long after the services are over. They reach out months later to check in, share grief resources, and remind families that theyโ€™re not alone. That kind of lasting compassion is rare, and it has meant more to us than words can express. Their attention to detail, their dignity in handling arrangements, and their heartfelt support have carried my family through some of our most difficult days. Lensing Funeral Home genuinely makes a difference in the lives of

Lensings is a very warm and friendly place. They helped us with both of our parents services. They are very helpful in leading you in the right direction for planning services for your loved one. I highly recommend them in assisting you with your needs even in weeks after to help you cope with grieving.

Iโ€™ve had the unfortunate pleasure of work with Lensing on multiple occasions over the last few years. Nobody wants to deal with all the messy details when a loved one passes but they made it so easy and were extremely helpful and supportive during the process. Iโ€™ve had to say goodbye to both of my grandparents who raised me and my husband and I canโ€™t imagine how I could have done it without them. Amanda especially is the most amazing person to work with. Her attention to detail is top notch.
