Nabors Family Funeral Home
"Expect Great Service...And Receive Greater"
About Us
We are Nabors Family Funeral Home and we have been a premier funeral home in South Holland, IL and now also in Thornton, IL since 2012. We specialize in funerals, cremations, repasts, and pre-need planning, but we also offer urns, caskets, keepsakes, removals, obituaries, and more. We are proud to offer nationwide shipping and we accept all insurances, so that everyone can afford the services they need. Our goal is to provide the best service possible to our customers so that they can focus on celebrating their loved one's life rather than feeling stressed about funeral arrangements. We are licensed in Illinois and Indiana and look forward to assisting consumers with their funeral home experience nationwide, specifically including the following areas: Chicago Heights, Homewood, Phoenix, Glenwood, Hazel Crest, Lynwood, Matteson, Harvey and Robbins. We would like to personally invite you to stop by to discuss pre-planned funeral arrangements today!
Our Story
Our owner, Lillie Nabors, received all her training from Malcolm X College, where she graduated with a degree in Mortuary Science and Applied Arts Sciences. She accumulated more than 11 years of experience from serving families in the Chicagoland area before finally realizing her dream of owning her own funeral parlor. Lillie and her husband, Derrick, opened Nabors Family Funeral Home in 2012.
Here at Nabors Family Funeral Home, it is our mission to remind families of the value in coming together after a loss to honor their deceased loved one. Holding a ceremony and gathering with friends and family afterwards is an essential part of grieving because it allows everyone to share memories and express their emotions in a healthy way. Today, the funeral options range anywhere from formal to relaxed, so you can choose the service that best fits your family’s needs.
It is important to acknowledge the loss of a loved one with your friends and family because this type of gathering calls together the hearts and minds of all who loved them. This allows those who loved the deceased to honor their memory, and also gain peace of mind from the experience. We can help you create a beautiful and meaningful ceremony to express the individuality with our cremation memorial services and pre-planned funeral arrangements.
We are a family-owned and operated business that has a passion for helping others and serving those in need. We understand that there is no greater time of need than a death in the family, which is why we offer comfort and care to each of our clients while also providing customizable services. We are licensed, insured, and ready to meet each family’s individual needs.

Mrs. Lillie Nabors,
Thank you for the service you provided to me and my family in the loss of my brother, John Robinson. Thank you for the patience and professionalism you extended to me as I dealt with the difficulties involved in the funeral process. Your kindness and consideration was invaluable during a mentally trying time. It meant a lot to me personally; and to my immediate and extended family members as well. In addition, I’d like to express my gratitude for the excellent cosmetic work you performed on my brother. He had been sick for many years and had declined physically but, thanks to your efforts, looked young and vibrant. On behalf of my family, THANK YOU for a job well done. We look forward to a continuing relationship with Nabors Family Funeral Home.
