First things first. At Martenson Family of Funeral Homes, we know you are going through a difficult time and we are in business to help you through it. We believe in communication and we will find what works best for your family to help you make the best decisions.

Kaizen is a Japanese term often used in workplaces that translates loosely to “constant small improvements”. This idea of continuous improvement is the fuel needed for our staff to provide the very best of care to you and your family.

We believe in four pillars of our business, transparency, honesty, dignity, and integrity.  Our values lead us to serve this and surrounding communities with the highest level of professionalism, ethics, and morality.

INTEGRITY: We hold ourselves to a strict ethical standard. We are open and honest in all that we do, providing compassion and understanding during a difficult part of life. Our professionalism comes with a strict moral compass, and we are proud of whom we are and whom we trust to represent Martenson Family of Funeral Homes.

DIGNITY: Our staff is committed to doing what is right. We understand the care of your loved one is your primary concern. We treat you and your family not only how we want, but how we expect to be treated when faced with the loss of a loved one.

HONESTY & TRUST: Our calling is to deliver faithful ministry to those in need of care and guidance. We could not carry out that calling without your trust. We gain your trust through our actions, service, and honesty.

TRANSPARENCY: We want to help you shine a light on a difficult subject. We pride ourselves on being transparent about everything we do.

We can answer questions about your existing funeral plans and pre-funded accounts. If your fund was set up through a different funeral home or provider and you are concerned about the account status, please contact us directly. Call us anytime at 734-671-5400.

WHY IT MATTERS: We are here as a trusted resource, if you have questions about any aspect of funeral service, cremation, burial, trust accounts, and anything else that may be related to the loss of a loved one or planning for your future. Whether it is a service in the Downriver area or even in another state; whether it is for yourself or a family member; whether it is in relation to Martenson Family of Funeral Homes or another funeral provider, want to help guide you through this difficult life stage.

Martenson Family of Funeral Homes knows that actions show true character of a company, and we are proud of our service and our commitment as a funeral home that keeps your best interests at heart, serving you with the integrity, dignity, honesty, and transparency you deserve. As always, we are here in your time of need to celebrate life’s stories and encourage faith.

In moments of loss, what families often remember most are the stories — the small, vivid details that made their loved one unmistakably *themselves*.

At times we all struggle with what to say when a loved one, a friend or acquaintance has just lost someone to death. We find we often struggle with the right words to say, often times we over think what we should say and we may decide to say nothing at all. At times just being present to the person can make a huge difference or one may say, “I don’t know what to say, but I am here for you.”
