About Us
Family Owned vs Corporate Grand Rapids Funeral Homes
The funeral care landscape in Grand Rapids has shifted in recent years, with many longtime, family-owned funeral homes becoming part of larger corporate organizations. In those situations, decisions are often guided by business interests rather than local relationships.

Ofield Funeral Home remains proudly family owned and locally operated. We answer to the families we serve and the community we call home—not to shareholders. Every service we provide is centered on honoring your loved one and respecting your wishes with care and attention.
Our goal is to make the planning process as manageable as possible, offering steady guidance and thoughtful support every step of the way. We are here to provide comfort, respect, and reassurance during a time when those things matter most.
Online Memorial
We can create a customized, online memorial for you to share with family and friends. The memorial includes the obituary and any photographs you wish to provide. It will serve as a place for visitors to post condolences, share memories, upload photos, and light candles in honor of your loved one.
Tribute Video
We can produce a personal tribute video that can be played at the service and online. Simply provide us with the photographs you want to include and we will transform them into a video celebration of your treasured memories. DVDs or USB thumb drives of the video are also available.
Ordering Flowers
We make it easy for friends and family to send flowers to your home or service to honor your loved one. We have partnered with local florists to offer the convenience of ordering directly from the obituary page of our website. You can also use this feature to select the flowers you would like at the service. This is a secure way to choose beautiful arrangements from the privacy and comfort of your home.
Sharing Service Details
We reduce the stress of contacting those who need the details of the service for your loved one. We post the dates and times of the service as part of the online memorial on our website. You can then either share the memorial on your Facebook or X page or copy the details from the site into an email or text. Both options give you the peace of mind that you have provided the necessary information to those who need it.
