3 Best Funeral Homes in Arvada, CO

Malesich and Shirey Funeral Home is a top tier funeral home in handling a stage of life for family members and friends whom are inexperienced with the logistics involved with the death of a loved one. From the moment that my father passed away until everything was all said and done, I truly felt that Malesich and Shirey Funeral Homes held my hand through each and every step which made me feel confident and encouraged that I properly, and respectfully, sent off my father with respect and honor to his dying wishes.

No one is ever prepared for a death in the family. Last week we lost our beloved father in Colorado and needed help in having him transported out of State. God truly blessed us by directing my family to Malesich & Shirey Funeral Home.

When my dear friend called from ICU to tell me she needed to get her affairs in order I immediately flew from Washington to help her. As executor of her estate all the details were mine to deal with, and Malesich and Shirey made the first steps so stress free.

In January 2025, we lost our mother, and my family and I reached out to many funeral homes. Aspen Mortuaries was one of them, and from the moment we spoke with Christina, one of the funeral directors, we knew we were in good hands. Christina was not only incredibly professional but also genuinely kind, supportive, and patient as we navigated a process no one wishes to go through—but there we were. The support didn’t stop there. Julie and other staff members reached out with resources for emotional guidance and support through the grieving process. Their compassion and understanding were deeply comforting during such a difficult time. Our experience with Aspen Mortuaries was truly positive and made an unimaginable situation a little easier to bear. I couldn’t recommend them more for their exceptional care and heartfelt service.

I lost my Husband in the worst possible way ever. A Friend at work suggested Aspen to me because it was close to work and both my Husband & I being school bus drivers, Aspen was the perfect location. When I went in there to meet with them, I had NO CLUE what to do or how to do anything. Christina held my hand and basically held me up through the process. Aspen was amazing, but Christina was the one who helped me the most. I asked questions several times (probably repeated myself) but she took care of everything for me even down to the smallest details. She knew what she was doing and she had my back on all of it. She has no idea how much I appreciate Aspen and especially her. She has called me since then just to check up on me to see how I'm doing. I pray I never have to go through anything like this again, but if I do, Christina will be my go to person at Aspen.

Everyone that we interacted with was extremely professional, caring, and went above and beyond to make sure that during a difficult time, our family and loved one was well cared for. Should the need arise I would use them again without hesitation.
