I cannot say enough kind things about Sunset Funeral Home and Cremations. During one of the most…read moredifficult times for our family, their team provided compassionate, professional, and truly heartfelt support. From the very first phone call, they treated us with patience, dignity, and genuine care. They took the time to walk us through every step of the process, answering all of our questions and making sure we felt comfortable with each decision. Nothing felt rushed or transactional -- they truly honored our loved one's life and respected our wishes. The service itself was beautifully organized, and every detail was handled seamlessly. Their staff went above and beyond to make sure our family felt supported, even checking in afterward to see how we were doing. If you are looking for a funeral home that leads with compassion, professionalism, and integrity, I highly recommend Sunset Funeral Home and Cremations. They made a painful time just a little bit easier, and for that, we are incredibly grateful.

The last time that I visited it, the place was so rundown that it just made me wanna cry. When I drove by recently, they had torn it down and there is now a plastic surgery center where it once sat.

Our father had his Vigil at this same location 20 years ago. We felt as if nothing changed in 20 years when our mother just had her Vigil at this location other than the wonderful, compassionate volunteer. We found the funeral director less knowledgeable than desired, follow-through was unreliable. A number was shared with us to reach him if needed, but calls were not returned. Our Mother's casket had a memory drawer that we were shown on our pre-Vigil check, which was too late to put any small, special "things" in as we had moved all mom's things away prior to that day. There was a folder in the memory drawer that I found and questioned the funeral director about. I was told it was stationary. Was he going to just leave that for "mom"? I pulled it out and put it to the side of the room, and had it available for guests to write mom a special note if they cared to and we would place it with her. The funeral director mentioned he would signage the table for us and that was not done. We just made it work. When orienting us as to how the funeral would proceed, we were "told" what was happening, not asked to be part of the funeral. We had to ask to Paul-bearer for the females and asked to place the Paul on mom's casket, not the funeral home staff. A funeral should be personalized and not just text-book-convenient. For a funeral that cost well over 12K, (parents had their cemetary lot already purchased) we were left with the feeling that it was a money making deal. I know the business deals with sadness everyday, but they should never get a cold shoulder to the emotional roller coaster a family rides when experiencing the loss of a loved on. Each "client" should feel the compassion as if it were one of their own experiencing the loss.

When my mom passed last year, I was obviously a wreck emotionally. Thanks to Braman (in addition to my parents doing their own end-of-life plans in advance), the whole process was seamless and very easy for me to understand and make any remaining decisions. We worked with Leslie, and she laid out anything remaining that was needed from us - a burial outfit, pictures and songs for the memorial/tribute video, and a few other things. But most everything else was handled by Braman, which was so appreciated in that hard, emotional time. Braman even found a priest to be the service officiant, when all the clergy at my mom's church were sadly all on a retreat out of town. The officiant that Braman found was from a sister church (Fr. Swanton) and he was very warm and gave a great service for my Mom. If you are making your own end-of-life plans or are looking for a mortuary to help you through everything, I highly recommend Braman Mortuary. Everything went off amazingly and it was a fantastic send off for my Mom, thanks to Braman.

When there was a big loss in my family this fall, my sisters and I worked with Bill Cutler, Sr. to make the needed arrangements. He was patient, kind, sympathetic, and explained all of our options. The family chooses the details but they make sure it happens from prayer cards, to the program, catering, etc. We had our luncheon following the service there on the property so no one had to leave to drive somewhere else. A nice feature is that memorial services are broadcast livestream so family overseas were able to witness the service in real time. The link is live for 30 days. What I didn't know beforehand is that they offer grief support groups regularly with licensed professionals. It's a safe place to talk about your loved one and grief in an accepted place where other people get it.

Leah (I think that was her name) walked me through everything on the phone and was able to get us a meeting soon after our family member's passing. Robert was great to work with, guiding us through the entire process from writing an obit, putting together a video and ordering flowers. He even let us know about the national cemetery for veterans and spouses which offered free burials. Although we were pursuing cremation, we'd be able to secure a plot to have a final resting place for some of the ashes. We used their facility for our celebration of life service where we could bring in our own food. Danielle was present the entire time, helping to replenish the food line and provide cleanup. The existing space holds about 80 people but there is an expansion that is slated to open in the spring of 2025, allowing for a larger gathering space. Although a tough time for our family, we really appreciated the compassion and professionalism they showed.
