About Willow Bend
Willow Bend is an established upscale neighborhood in west Plano, bounded generally by the Dallas North Tollway on the east, Parker Road on the north, and Preston Road on the west. It sits within ZIP code 75093 and is one of the most recognizable master-planned communities in Collin County, with mature tree cover, custom homes on larger lots, and a strong multigenerational family presence. Many of the families we serve here have lived in the same home for two or three decades, and the arrangements they plan often reflect long-standing ties to a specific church, country club, or synagogue in the immediate area.
Because Willow Bend draws residents from a wide range of faith traditions — Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, Presbyterian, Jewish, Hindu, and Muslim among them — Vargas-London coordinates closely with clergy and ritual leaders across the corridor. Carlos Vargas, our Texas Licensed Funeral Director (TFSC #119648), personally handles the intake for every Willow Bend arrangement, and our bilingual (English/Spanish) staff can assist when a service involves extended family who prefer Spanish.
ZIP code served: 75093. Adjacent 75024 and 75025 addresses on the north edge of Willow Bend are also within our normal same-day response window.

Common questions from Willow Bend families
How quickly can you reach a home in 75093 after we call?
Our transfer team can typically be at a Willow Bend residence within 25 to 40 minutes of the initial call, depending on time of day and traffic on the Dallas North Tollway and US-75. There is no premium for after-hours response — the price is the same at 2 a.m. as it is at 2 p.m.
My family attends Prestonwood Baptist. Can the memorial service be held there?
Yes. Prestonwood, Hope Fellowship, Custer Road UMC, and St. Mark the Evangelist are all venues we coordinate with routinely. We handle the logistics with the church — delivery of the casket or urn, timing with the officiant, and coordination with the graveside procession — so the family only has to work with the clergy on the content of the service itself.
Where do most Willow Bend families choose for burial?
Ridgeview Memorial Park in Allen and Restland Memorial Park in far north Dallas are the two most-requested cemeteries for Willow Bend residents. Sparkman/Hillcrest is a common choice for families with older Dallas ties. For veterans, DFW National Cemetery in southwest Dallas offers no-cost interment for eligible service members and spouses.
Do you handle Jewish, Hindu, or Muslim rites?
Yes. We coordinate with local synagogues, temples, and mosques on tahara, ghusl, shrouding, and same-day or next-day burial timelines. Our staff are experienced with the compressed schedules these traditions require, including refrigeration in lieu of embalming when the family requests it.
Is your pricing really the same regardless of neighborhood?
Yes. Direct cremation is $1,750, memorial cremation is $4,995, and a traditional funeral is $6,350 — the same in Willow Bend as in every other neighborhood we serve. Our full General Price List is published online and provided in writing at the arrangement conference, as required by the FTC Funeral Rule (16 C.F.R. Part 453).
