May we never forget!
September 10, 2011
As we reflect on the events of 10 years ago, may we always remember and cherish the freedoms that we enjoy as Americans. No act of terrorism can break the spirit of this great nation. Not now, or ever. Be it Pearl Harbor or the World Trade Center, no one can take that spirit from us. God bless Amerca!
Two Years of Serving Pet Families
September 1, 2011
The Amos Family Pet Companion Crematory has been serving a large number of pet families since September of 2009. We’re continuing to help families during this difficult time, through veterinarian partner offices and clients who choose to use us over other providers. The family-owned and operated funeral home sets a high standard for care of both human and pet family members. We thank everyone who helped to make the last two years successful.

If you received a letter regarding your NPS prearrangement, read this.
August 17, 2009
If you have a prearrangement with the Amos Family Funeral Home which was funded through National Prearrangement Services (NPS), you may have received a letter and some claim forms in the mail. We are advising our clients to not submit a claim as the claim is only for any unpaid growth from the insurance policy used to fund the funeral plan. Currently, the Kansas Life and Health Guaranty Association is paying the original face amount of the policy as a death benefit. The funeral home provides the services listed in the contract and accepts the death benefit as payment for the contract. Any out of pocket cost to the consumer will only be for items not included in the original contract. These typically include, obituaries, death certificates, clergy honorariums, musicians, grave opening, etc.
If you would like to file a claim and need assistance, we will gladly help you. Or, if you wish to review your contract with us, or have any other questions, you can call us at 913-631-5566 or email us at mail@amosfamily.com.
