Losing loved ones is never easy so having someone who cares and has great character was very assuring those two times in our life. Paul (and his staff) did an outstanding job with both my Dad and Mom's funeral/celebration services. From start to finish, Paul was kind, comforting, very available and highly attentive. Over the years, I've attended many services at their chapels. I highly recommend them. Paul is a consummate professional. No one better!

During Labor Day weekend this year, I had the incredibly heartbreaking experience of taking my…read morefather off of life support. Soon after, I spoke with my family about next steps, and my brother found Huber Funeral Homes. Of all the places he called, Chad, the program director there, picked up immediately. He said he could meet with us the morning of Labor day (the next day) to review booking a date, pricing, and answer any questions. We had the meeting around 10 am, and he professionally arrived early in a suit. He gave us the information, and we felt comfortable enough to go with him. He also gave us a folder with all the information not only about the funeral, but also about what to do after one loses someone. I appreciated that. The day before the funeral, Huber Funeral Homes coordinated with the hospital (where my father passed), embalmed him, and transported him to their location. We had to think of so much that day; I'm glad they took care of everything. The day and a half I had to organize the funeral, I worked with Chat to have a program printed, and he gave me so much flexibility in getting those materials to him. When I arrived, they already had my father, flowers, and everything else setup. They accommodated us and our request, for a Buddhist funeral, too. After the ceremony and reception, they coordinated a funeral procession to Lakewood Cemetery where they cremated my father. They hired law enforcement to literally stop traffic, for us, as we traveled from Eden Prairie to Minneapolis. I hate the fact I'm writing a review about a Funeral Home, but Huber is a business, with locals working there, too. And they did such a good job that when an awful event like the loss of a loved-one occurs, trust Huber Funeral Homes to help make the worst time in your life a little bit easier.

My mom passed at about 1:15 on a Sunday, and the chapel had someone to pick her up by about 3:30. It was comforting to know that we were cared for almost immediately! Two days later we met with Scott, who listened to our every desire for mom's funeral, which was held at the Edina chapel. From picking the casket to suggesting flowers, and finding a priest, all of the people at Washburn-McReavy made everything clear and easy to follow. Mom was 91, and definitely had aged, but the makeup and hair was amazing! We thought for sure it would be a closed casket!! But she looked so good we left it open! Scott found the overwhelming amount of tables and easels we needed for presentation. The funeral went smoothly, and the burial even smoother! When we pulled up to Ft. Snelling... the traffic coordinator knew Scott and helped us immensely! It was as perfect as a funeral can get! Everything was handled and coordinated without worries! It was a beautiful service, and everyone commented! You won't be disappointed! In a time of stress, they made our lives so much easier!

After the pronouncing of her death I had to call the funeral home to pick her up. I was told they were busy, and they came in a timely manner. Even it's a loved one, a dead body in the bedroom is damned creepy. We were able to make arrangements the next day. I like how during the visitation they're so available and on top of things. Turns out we shared the day with a much younger man who was very popular and had almost 200 guests. We were in the smaller room across the way, yet as people came in they were drawn to our side to sign in. This basically led to me directing traffic, rather than visiting with our guests. So right away the director moved our sign in to inside our room, problem solved. They are very good at helping you keep costs down. At stressful times like this you want friendly, co-operative people at your service.

It's private, it overlooks Fort Snelling, and it's just a really peaceful, quiet place to be. I was recently at an interment here, and everything went smoothly, even in the snow. They were playing a song on the bells and it was a really beautiful event. Whether or not you have a reason to come here, just take a walk around it sometime.

Special thanks to David, Jane, Vera, Stephanie, Elida, Michael, Kirk, and I know there are several others I'm forgetting. All the attendants were professional and proactive. It was also the only space we visited (of five or six) that was large enough to hold a sanctuary-like service, given we were not using a church building for our service.

Frankly I had somehow forgotten just how large, sprawling and beautiful this is. Endless rows of markers and gently rolling terrain made it easy for me to become lost and disoriented. However after a wide sweep of the cemetery I finally found the resting place of my father and paid him homage. He was a Navy pilot during WWII and died ~35 years ago. For something this big and busy I found it serene and solemn. Regardless of political stripe I would be surprised if anyone were not moved by the sacrifices made by our men and women in the military. Whether they died in combat, served overseas, faced death here at home or whatever the circumstances may have been I think that the National Cemetery is a fitting tribute to their legacy. FYI: Alas I wish that I had my dad's wings but they were given to one of his brothers after the war (they all served in the army) and I have never seen them. I suspect that they ended up with a cousin but honestly, I never brought them to anyone's attention.
