Hummel made me feel so comfortable, they made the process of arranging payment and ordering the urn for my 6week old son so simple.In the most breath takingly painful moments of my life I was greeted with empathy, love and a sense that my babys remains were safe in his last moments on this earthly plane. As I handed Kyle the blanket I wanted my precious baby wrapped in when he was cremated I felt a sense of honor, and respect that couldnt have been matched.I am ever grateful for the peace that the staff at Hummel, specifically Kyle, provided me.Thank you for being such a wonderful group of people, Thank you for making the most painful decisions of my life easy and for checking in on me long after I was of any financial benefit to your company.Hummel doesnt just care when your moneys walking through the door, they care about you, your heart and your feelings. They know death better than most and the impact it makes on those still alive; they gracefully walk the family through the process of funeral arrangements, obituary, urn and casket ordering, everything, it was so simple and comfortable.I highly, highly, recommend Hummel.

If I could give Hummel 10 stars, I would. The compassion and understanding shown to my family with my aunt’s passing was so appreciated by all. From the first discussion many months ago in pre-planning to the calls since the funeral were so comforting. While I hope we will not need their services for awhile, I will not hesitate for a second to call them with any questions or concerns. They are a blessing and I HIGHLY recommend them. Sincerely, Ellen Dies

If I could give Hummel Funeral Homes 6 stars, I would. I lost both of my parents within 2 months of each other. My family did not have a lot of money to spend and I never felt pressured to spend more money then what we could afford. Kyle was so kind and caring. He made this difficult process so much easier on me. I was given the option to sign documents through email. Kyle walked me through every step of the process. I even received occasional texts from Hummel to check on me and my family afterwards. I cannot express enough gratitude.

The Shay and Brennan families have had a long-standing relationship with the Hummel Family as well as the Hummel Funeral Homes. There are few things more challenging in life than navigating the death of a loved one. The entire staff at Hummel is incredibly professional as well as genuinely caring and compassionate. They take care of every detail and make the process as painless as possible. I cannot recommend Hummel Funeral Homes enough to take care of your loved ones and family as they deal with inevitable losses in their lives.

Our family has been using Hummel since before I can remember. My dad just passed recently and due to cancer his face mainly his nose and eye was a complete open wound. I couldn’t figure out if I wanted a closed or open casket. The day of the showing I was SO amazed at how good my dad looked. They did a wonderful job and I can see now why we have stayed with Hummel all of these years. They are professional and they really do care. Go with Hummel and I promise they’ll walk you through everything and answer any questions you may have. Our family will definitely remain with Hummel in our time of need. Thank you so much Hummel!

My family has relied on Hummel for over 40 years to help us through the death of loved ones. We recently laid my mom to rest and Hummel was, once again, a light in a time of sadness. Theresa, in particular, helped us navigate the process with care and compassion. I cannot say enough about how much we appreciate the people at Hummel.

We had the pleasure of working with Theresa. With so much going on at the time, Theresa and her staff really went above and beyond in helping us through what was a hard time for our family in dealing with the loss of my wife. All of the staff was very caring and professional. They handled all of the details ensuring all of our needs were met. Thank you very much for your kindness and the help you provided for us.

I cannot say enough great things about Paul and his team. They made everything as easy and smooth as is humanly possible. Planning a funeral is not a something anyone looks forward to, and quite frankly most of dont have a clue of what needs to be done and when. Their attention to detail, along with their caring and compassion for me and my family simply could not be surpassed. When the time comes (as it will for all of us with loved ones) for a funeral home’s service, Hummel is hands down the one to use.

Mom, always wanting to be in charge, preplanned her services several years in advance. Hummel’s made it easy and seamless. They were exceptional, answered all of our questions and provided professional guidance as this was the first time I had ever been an executor. Thank you! 🙏

I would highly recommend Paul ad his staff. When a sudden tragedy struck our family, Paul and his staff were at the house to quickly handle the circumstances. Their attention to detail and the caring for me and my family were outstanding. Despite our ever changing minds about what do to he was always accommodating. If you are ever in need of a funeral home’s service, Hummel is one of the best I have ever usedPaul Kikta

Hummel Funeral Homes has handled multiple family funerals, assisted in prearrangements, and has supported myself and my family through 3 very emotional funerals. I have dealt with various persons, even spoke directly to Mr. Hummel, and everyone of them has been exceptional in their care and follow up in our times of grief. I would highly recommend them for prearrangements and every aspect of funerals and services.

I would like to say that HummelCares went above and beyond what I expected for my husband. From previous experience with my mother at a different place. I can’t say enough about Hummel, they really did go beyond what was expected and Everybody was just so nice and like family. They brought my husband’s ashes to me because of circumstances beyond their control. Which was a blessing to me. They are 5 stars in my book.

I would like to thank Hummel Funeral Home and how our family was treated throughout the recent death of my mother. From the process of pre-planning my parents final arrangements many months ago to all the help and guidance given to me recently after the death of my mother was above and beyond my expectations. The care and compassion of each person I talked to as well as the follow up text to check on me personally and how I was handling the loss was very much appreciated.

Recently a very close friend of mine suddenly took his own life. I dont think anyone is ever prepared for that. In my moments of grief and disbelief, I turned to Dean and Elizabeth at Hummel Funeral Home. This local funeral home has helped many struggling with the choices and options of a funeral and its cost. Like a good friend they listen, comfort and help make a difficult time easier. They made it possible for my friend to have a dignified and affordable ending to his life. I left there feeling they truly cared. I would not hesitate to recommend the Hummel Funeral home for your needs. None of the us want to think about such things as the end of our life or the ones we love, but I would strongly recommend them if you are facing a decision for your care or someone you love.

Our family wishes to thank Paul and his staff for their caring, support, and absolute attention to detail for our mothers funeral. Thank you Paul for going out your way to accommodate our schedule. Even though it was a sad time for our family, everyone at Hummels was so thoughtful and caring that it made our experience as easy as possible. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.

They were absolutely the nicest, caring, most thoughtful people I have ever dealt with. They were so so sympathetic and helping. I would refer Hummel Funeral Home to anyone. I am so happy I went to them for Funeral Insurance otherwise I may not have used them and I would not have experienced their kindness. They even still after almost 2 months since the passing of my husband check in to see how I am doing. Now that to me just shows their empathy and thoughtfulness. Thank you to everyone at Hummel Funeral Home. You made my loss much easier. Thank you so much!!!!

When my brother passed unexpectedly, Hummel funeral services help me greatly with getting him cremated and sent to me at my address in Missouri.I appreciate all the help and the time they spent in getting my brother ready for delivery.Thanks again for all your help.Special thanks to Teresa and David Churbock at the shelter for everything.

No one wants to deal with saying goodbye to a loved one, but Hummel does an amazing job getting the details done in a professional, efficient manner. They are very humble and kind, personable and caring. Even if you’re stressed about finances, they do everything in their power to help find away to respectfully lay your loved one to rest. Personally, I’ve dealt with both Hummel on Exchange with the loss of my sister, and on numerous occasions- Hummel on Copley Rd for my four-legged furry family members. Highly recommend both!

Hummel Funeral Home took care of the services and burial for our loved one. They were very helpful and professional. The slideshow, bookmarks, and printed book were all exceptionally done! We received many positive comments about them. Theresa was thorough as we were making our arrangements and so very helpful the day of the service and burial. We highly recommend Hummel Funeral Home.

The most helpful and compassionate funeral home in the area! We were out of the country when our daughter died and Hummel assisted us even before we landed in the U.S. Paul and his team were exceptional. We would highly recommend their services!

Hummel Funeral Home was there for me and my family at the time we really needed a friend. My sister had passed away and Hummel was the only one that worked with me so I could make sure my sisters wishes were honored. They worked with the Veterans and and my sisters wishes were fulfilled. Because she was a wife of a Veteran and the Veterans did pay the bill, Hummel was the only one that would help me to be able to lay my sister at rest with her last request. Had it not been for Hummel I dont know what I would do. They were kind, helpful and very sincere with the help they gave me. Thank you Hummel for being who you and taking that one step further to help the Veterans and their Families. May God bless you always♥

I just had my mom at the Hummel Funeral Home at Market. The one that came and picked her up at the Nursing home after she passed, treated her with the utmost dignity and respect.. Everyone at the Hummel Funeral Home was very nice and gave me the utmost respect, December 18,2019...

Review №33

I had a terrible experience. You are only as strong as the team around you. My experience cannot be fixed or taken away. I read these other reviews and feel furious that my feelings and my circumstances were not as important. I had trouble picking up my Father’s remains because they close at 4pm during the week and I work an hour and 1/2 away. I was never told they could mail them, I even asked if my cousin could pick them up but she couldn’t make it until 4:30 so that was not okay. I then had to call on my lunch break each Friday to see if there was going to be someone there on Saturday. I asked about an online obituary, which I now see listings on their website, I was told to use Facebook, I’ve seen links shared on Facebook and that’s not the same thing. Every life is important and so is every life left behind. A business in this field will not go far with staff that behaves in this nature. If you’re looking I urge you to go elsewhere.

Dean and his team were extremely helpful when my brother passed away. We chose an Urn and it was not in stock. Dean searched the warehouse and found just one. We were elated. They worked with us to include hand written poems my brother wrote onto his bookmarkers. His dog of 17 years also passed away a few weeks prior to his passing and they cremated her as well. Their Urns match. We also got a clipping of her hair and a paw print in clay. The services requested were a quick turn-a-round which helped as I live in another state. I highly recommend Hummel Funeral Home. They will care for you and your lost loved one.
