What sets Iles apart

In a profession where most families assume all funeral homes are the same, the difference at Iles is something you feel, and something our families consistently tell us they didn’t expect.

The Iles Difference

Exclusive options for celebrating your loved one. Our client families are routinely surprised by what's possible.

Explore Our Locations

Seven locations across Central Iowa, each one designed to fit how families actually gather, grieve, and celebrate today.

One Standard of Care

Family-owned for three generations. Trusted by Des Moines families for more than 60 years. Rated 4.95 across 550+ reviews.

Des Moines’ first funeral home purpose-built for the way families gather today. Jordan Creek Chapel was designed from the ground up to create a space that feels as meaningful as the life it honors. From a 200-seat chapel filled with natural light to a full reception center that can host 100 seated guests, every detail reflects the Iles standard of care.
