Reach Our Care Team

Phones answered 9 AM – 7 PM CST.

If you or a loved one is struggling after a tragic loss, these free, confidential hotlines are staffed by trained counselors 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

In any immediate emergency, please call 911. Ivory Gate is not a crisis service — but we will gladly help you connect with grief counselors and faith leaders in your area.

From the family limousine to chapel tents and seating, we arrange every rental needed to carry your loved one — and your family — through the day with grace.
