They met with us the same day, listened to what we were attempting to accomplish in terms of a memorial service, had references readily available, and allowed us time to use their conference room and pull all the elements together. On the day of the service, they were more available than we had ever expected them to be, and didn't rush us in any way. Everything went perfectly, and their services were an important reason why it all went so well. For an extremely cost effective way to handle final expenses, we didn't feel like we were getting sub par service; far from it. I've been to the full service places that come with plenty of guilt to push you to spend more money during a time where you are ill equipped to make good decisions. Here, we received everything we wanted, no high pressure sales tactics or guilt. I can't recommend them enough, they are awesome people! Thank you very much for everything you did for us.

I've noticed there's not a lot of reviews here and even less photos. With all the five star reviews…read morethey are obviously doing something right and they were very helpful to me as well. I called around to get some quotes on having a photograph printed on a porcelain memorial piece which is then afixed to the headstone. They were definitely the most reasonably priced, but I was surprised that this service is close to the $300 mark (some places wanted more). Normally it would be a little more because they'll carve out a spot on the headstone and afix it for you, but I just needed to get it to go and take it with me out of state. Just so you know, this service takes about a month to do. There's also one other unique thing you'll find here. In the back of their parking lot are five different food trucks to choose from. They are not very visible from Burnet Road and they do have some outdoor seating as well. Plenty of photos to get you acquainted.

Most of the big ones in Austin such as Weed-Corley-Fish and Cook-Walden have been bought up by big companies such as Service Corporation International (SCI) and therefore usually profit margin is the number one driving factor when running a business by a big conglomerate. Harrell Funeral Home is not that way. They treat you like family, responsive to your needs and requests, do everything in the most professional and dignified manner possible. Even when they arrived to pick up my mother who had passed away at home, they were gentle in lifting her, asked us how they wanted us to wrap her, and placed a beautiful cover over her when they took her to an unmarked Mercedes van to transport her to the funeral home.They help you think of things that you may not have considered when a loved one passes. What I like best about them is their cremation facility in is onsite in South Austin so if you want to stay with your loved one until the very end, you are allowed to do that. Many places will nickel and dime you for every little thing but that is not the case with Harrell. They offer free online obituaries, free video tributes to go with your obituary, free grieving resources, and assistance with typing up loose ends such as procuring death certificates and closing out digital identities and financial matters of your loved one. Paul and Jason were so kind during this delicate time and there was never a hard upsell at any time. They respected my mother's wishes and my wishes for what we needed from them. I can't say enough great things about Harrell Funeral Homes and for anyone who has to unfortunately make those hard decisions, I would highly recommend calling Harrell to support you during that time.

I wish I could give them 6 stars. Post Script: I understand why the folks are commenting negatively below. Their concerns were mine also. HOWEVER, Harrell has made some personnel changes now and I would encourage you to meet with them to find out for yourself. In 2019, we went to Harrell for my Father's funeral and we were overwhelmed with the thoughtfulness, respect, and caring. I will have my services at Harrell's.

I am a frequent visitor to Assumption Cemetery, (located in Austin, Texas) & have been for many…read moreyears because so many of my family members are buried there. And the one thing that I can say is consistent about Assumption Cemetery is the inconsistency of the maintenance & upkeep of the grounds at Assumption Cemetery. During my most recent visit on Father's Day 06/15/2025 around 6pm - which was a rainy day. there were so many areas that were flooded w/ water completely covering some of the tombstones (see pic & video included in this review). I have called the cemetery on Monday, 06/16/2025 & left a message to report the flooded areas. I also left a message about the following issues needing to be addressed: -- - - trash needing to be cleaned up & not enough trash bins located on-site so visitors can throw away their trash. Only 2 regular sized trash bins currently there & the trash was overflowing because cans weren't big enough. -- - - no markers on-site to list the section #s of the burial grounds so 1st time visitors can easily find grave sites. During my most recent visit, there was a woman looking for her dads grave stone & she did have a section # of the stone but since there are no signs listing the sections, she wasn't able to locate it. - - - clearing the weeds & grass from covering any gravestones - some stones are partially covered by grass and others are completely covered Each time I visit, I always bring gloves & trash bag(s) w/ me so I can pick up any trash that I see on the grounds & to pull up any weeds covering any of the stones. I do this for my family members AND for any other grave stones I see that are not my family members, out of respect but I do wish that the Assumption Cemetery grounds staff did a better job of keeping the cemetery grounds clean & maintained. I will continue to follow up on the issues mentioned above until they get resolved & I would also encourage any other cemetery visitors to contact the cemetery staff for any concerns they may have, so together we can keep the pressure on those who are responsible for the cleanliness & maintenance of Assumption Cemetery.
