An affordable Denver-area funeral home

Located at the corner of Marshall Street and Alameda Avenue, Advantage Runyan-Stevenson is a team that has passionately served our community for over 60 years by uniquely honoring a family's legacy with simple, transparent, low-cost service. Whether you are planning in advance or need to plan a loved one’s service immediately, we work with you on services that are both memorable and affordable.

Built as a funeral home with a spacious chapel, the location has plenty of room for friends and family to gather and reflect before, during or after a service. Our beautiful reception facilities are ideal for hosting a catered breakfast buffet or a cake-and-coffee social.

Advantage offers an alternative to traditional funeral homes by making the arrangement process easy to understand, without sacrificing high quality or care. At Advantage, you can plan a funeral or memorial that’s expressive but not expensive.

Options are clearly outlined for you—and there’s never any pressure to purchase more than you need. And, of course, you are always welcome to purchase services and merchandise a la carte from our General Price List.

Distinctive funerals and memorials

Our certified funeral celebrants are experts at helping families make selections that meet their needs. That means that whether you want a basic cremation or a traditional funeral at the funeral home with cemetery burial nearby, we know just what to do to keep things simple while also making them special.

Cremation options

Not everyone knows that there are many cremation options. If you are interested in cremation, the funeral home team can explain the process and the different memorial and burial choices. From a simple cremation without a service or a witness to a full funeral service before or after the cremation, you can select from affordable options to meet your needs.

And for families who choose the time-honored tradition of cremation, our full-service funeral home uses a private crematory dedicated to our family of funeral homes. This allows us to have complete control of a cremation from start to finish and means your loved one never leaves our care or the care of our affiliates.

Your loved one’s urn can be picked up at the funeral home or someone from our team can deliver it to your home or send it to you by mail. We also offer scattering assistance by request.
