Funeral Services & Cemeteries in Minneapolis

“From my very first meeting at the Cremation Society in Brooklyn Park, I was treated with genuine kindness, compassion, and respect. Every step of the process was explained clearly, and I was given a variety of cremation options without ever feeling pressured to spend more money or purchase additional products or services. Their honesty and transparency were deeply appreciated during such an emotional time.

Everything was handled professionally, efficiently, and with the utmost care and dignity. It was evident that they truly cared about both my mother and our family, and they ensured that every detail was taken care of with sensitivity and respect.

I am sincerely grateful for the support they provided and would highly recommend them to anyone seeking compassionate, ethical, and professional cremation services.“

“My mother passed away while living in the Seattle, WA area. Her request was to have a funeral and burial in Minneapolis. Jeff at Hodroff-Epstein seamlessly coordinated with the funeral home in Seattle. They also coordinated with our Temple in Minneapolis and had everything in place the day of the funeral. Their website had support for writing the obituary and hosting a webpage honoring my mother and to share information. I wouldn't have changed a thing, and the experience exceeded my expectations.“

“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.“

“The staff were very helpful, understanding and kind. They had a wealth of knowledge and helped my family navigate through a very difficult time with ease.“

“So I signed up for 5 year contract with Theo which no longer at Sunset... My understanding was pay overtime and I was able to place the ashes in. Surprisingly, Amy Berry I think her name told me that I have to pay the remaining balance in order for me to place the ashes in. That was my very confusion experience. Make a story short paid it all. Done. I think it should be explain that I have to pay in full prior to.
Thanks“

“Fort Snelling is a very special place to me. Fort Snelling National Cemetery is not only a place of great personal meaning but also an important part of Minnesota's history. Located near the historic Fort Snelling military post, the cemetery was established in 1939 and serves as the final resting place for thousands of veterans and their family members. The cemetery honors generations of men and women who served our country with courage and dedication, making it a place of dignity, respect, and remembrance.

For me, Fort Snelling holds an even deeper significance because my mom and dad are both buried there. I have visited many times to pay my respects to two loving and special people who played such an important role in my life. Each visit reminds me of the love, guidance, and values they shared with me. As I walk through the beautiful, peaceful grounds, surrounded by so much history and sacrifice, I feel a strong connection to my parents and gratitude for the time we shared. Fort Snelling is more than a historic cemetery—it is a sacred place where family memories, love, honor, and history come together.“

“From the moment we walked through the doors, Danielle and her staff provided exceptional care, compassion, and support during one of the most difficult times in our lives. Their kindness and genuine concern made us feel cared for every step of the way.
We were completely overwhelmed when we entered the chapel room and saw how beautifully they had captured our mother's life and personality. Every detail reflected who she was—from her favorite puzzles with special commemorative pieces, to the cardinals, her love of the Twins and Gophers, and even her favorite sweets, including ice cream and chocolate. The photo screens surrounding the room, displaying memories from throughout her life, created a heartfelt tribute that brought both tears and smiles.
One of the most meaningful moments was after the service, when Danielle and her staff accommodated our family's request to sing along to Mom's favorite song, Sweet Caroline. It was a beautiful, joyful way to celebrate her life and gave everyone a moment of comfort and connection.
The professionalism, attention to detail, and unique personal touches made all the difference. Danielle and her staff didn't simply organize a service—they created an experience that honored our mother in the most meaningful way possible. Their thoughtfulness wrapped our hearts with peace during an incredibly difficult time, and we will always be grateful for the love and care they showed our family.“

“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 🙏“
