About

Doane Beal and Ames offers burial and cremation services with a personal touch. We have served Hyannis and other Cape Cod communities since 1926. For more than 80 years, we have respectfully guided families through some of their most personal decisions.

Commitment to care

Our caring team at Doane Beal and Ames understands losing someone is a difficult experience—one that requires personal attention and guidance. We help families through the entire funeral planning process, ensuring you're comfortable with the choices you make. It is our goal to provide a positive experience for each family we serve.

Custom funeral services

Our families have the flexibility to create a funeral or memorial service as traditional or contemporary as they wish. The team at Doane Beal and Ames believes services should reflect individuality and celebrate life. We welcome families to share their stories and traditions, so we can create a thoughtful tribute that honors your loved one's legacy.

This approach to funeral service incorporates the things that make life special—hobbies, interests, accomplishments and the people who mean the most. We'll help you take care of all the details, including obituaries, flowers and keepsakes that family and friends will remember for years. We are also happy to arrange any catering you may need through a 3rd-party caterer.

Verified Customer Reviews

Since 2005, many of our customers have taken the time to tell us how we did each year via our Voice of the Customer program. Our star ratings and comments from families come directly from these surveys.

"This was my first time planing a funeral. I had no idea what to expect. I went in and they explained everything to me. It was one of the worst time of my life but they made me felt comfortable. The packages that they have wasn't for me so they helped me put together a package that worked for me and my family. I was please with my experience."
