Funeral Services & Cemeteries near Edina

“My beloved wife, Suzanne passed away two months ago, and we had prearranged her cremation. I am pleased to say, that despite the difficulty of dealing with this very sad and emotional issue, everyone at the cremation Society of Minnesota Edina was excellent to work with. Most especially Julia Pham, who was extremely helpful and attentive throughout the process. The event went very well!
My only concern, and it’s relatively minor, is that the staff that I worked with on the days leading up to the Ceremony regarding the audio video presentation we’re not present on the day of the event. That led to the sound system being operated at a lower volume than it should have.
Otherwise, I was very pleased.

“I'd like to say that during a difficult time everyone made it very easy. Communication was good and everyone had the answers to all my questions. We had our service at the St. Paul location which was very nice. Very clean and had adequate space for everyone. Thanks again for everyone's help.“

“Not your typical funeral home experience. Billman- Hunt goes above and beyond. Rob Jr. is very personable and makes the difficult experience and little lighter. I appreciated the down to earth approach of Billman-Hunt. I highly recommend.“

“Great staff and service during the most difficult time with the passing of family members!“

“It could not have been better. I believe his name was Aaron, and he was professional and thorough but also had a great sense of humor that my Mom Delores would've loved. Even at age 91, I'm positive that she would have flirted or gave him a hard time. We had every question answered. I had a life size cardboard cutout of her & some folks took pics with her. They were totally ok with this & complimented us for a great idea. Highly recommend this funeral home. Y'all should be proud of yourselves!“

“I just had my husband's funeral there and it was done just beautifully. Such honor and respect for both the deceased veteran and for our family“

“My parents had pre arranged funeral services. Sam he took care of everything. He made the process of losing two parents 9 months apart very easy.“

“The staff at Washburn-McReavy was caring and professional. I believe the process went so smoothly due to their pre-arrangement program. This program allowed my parents to indicate the services THEY wanted upon their passing and pay for those services, thus removing any decision-making and financial stress on our family at a time of great loss.“

“I called from out of state looking for pricing. Carrie who initially answered my call, was very polite and friendly over the phone. Danielle called me back with the information I needed and was very helpful, friendly and accommodating.“

“The staff at Washburn-McReavy at the NE Chapel and their main office went above and beyond to support me and my family during our families difficult time. The funeral staff that assisted me immediately upon my father's death were AMAZING! I was completely lost on what to do, they provided me so much support and direction. Mike, the Funeral Director, continued that support as he helped guide us in the funeral planning process.
Thank you Washburn-McReavy staff for everything 🙏“

“Gill Bros did a wonderful job for my sister's funeral. Abbie was fantastic and so was the rest of the staff. We had used them many years ago for our father and then our mothers funeral. They did a wonderful job then too. I highly recommend them. Thank you to Abbie and the rest of the staff.“

“My dad recently passed away peacefully. We decided to use Morris Nilsen for my dad's care and burial. Steve was such a blessing in this hard time. He helped us do a direct burial and was able to help get my dad into Ft. Snelling National Cemetery. Due to a certain time restraint, Steve worked hard with the VA and everything worked out well. Steve and his staff are professional and caring. They help to honor families wishes for their loved ones. Steve picked out a very nice coffin for my dad, that was economical. He did not try to add any unnecessary costs to this event. Thank you Steve and all the Morris Nilsen staff for doing such a great job with my dad and family.“

“I called from out of state needing pricing. Brena was immediately available to take my call and answer my questions.“

“What a professional, yet caring team. It was perfect for a party of about 75 for the service. The downstairs lunchroom was a perfect spot for our luncheon. We used the grand piano for background music as well. Thank you Jim and team.“

“When my mother had passed away a year before,she had set up plans with Washburn- McReavy . My brother Jim had taking care of any other paperwork or questions that needed answering . I believe at that time
he had set up his funeral arrangements a d plan . When he became ill I was able to move forward and pay the balance off ,which eased my mind moving forward .
When Jim passed ,you were very professional ,quick in reaching out to me ,answering any questions I had and then helping me go through any thing else that needed taking care of . Very good to reach out this week ,to see how I was doing ,and reassuring me that I could send you a message if I needed any help . Thank you !“
