When my brother informed the family that he had stage 4 lung cancer and only a short time to live we were devastated. Because we dont have a lot of funerals in our family we were not sure what to do next.I had heard from a friend that Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel was a honest and caring funeral home so our family chose them to facilitate the entire funeral service.This was one of the best decisions I ever made! When I first met Rob Sr at the funeral chapel he walked us through the funeral process, provided us with a very competitive funeral cost and gave us assurance that everything would be taken care of and it was.I guarantee that you wont find a more genuine funeral director in the state of Minnesota, who is honest, wants to save you money, and cares about your love one.I want to publicly thank the staff at Billman-Hunt and especially Rob Sr for taking care of us in August during a very difficult time.Duane

This family business is amazing. They were able to help guide me and my man’s family through a great deal of pain. They helped us reach our goal of laying our one and only to rest in paradise. Highly recommended, and they will surely help you through the times of needs.

Rob Jr. was a great help to my family during our time of mourning and grief. He was quick to get back us and answer all of our questions, and took his time to layout all the steps for us. Very pleased with service at Billman-Hunt. Would recommend!

I cannot even express my gratitude to Rob. You never think your child is going to leave this earth before you do and, in my case, my 22 year old son left this earth before me. I never planned a funeral service before, and Rob was right there helping us. He gave us everything we wanted and needed. He has just been so cool with me and my family, he is like family now. They also treat you like family. I highly recommend their services over any other in Minnesota. Trust me I have called around talk to a few funeral homes and none of them offered all the things Billman- Hunt did.

Our baby was stillborn and our social worker suggested Billman-Hunt as she had previous positive experience with them. No one expects this kind of tragedy, and to have to deal with arrangements for cremation was the last thing we wanted to think about. Rob Jr was wonderful and responded to all calls promptly as he helped us through this difficult and unexpected process.

This funeral home was amazing. We used their services on August 27th. They were extremely nice, helpful and made this experience extremely easy during our time of need. I am not a Minnesota resident, I live in Oklahoma but had to commute to Minnesota when my younger sister passed away. I worked closely with their son Junior he was amazing and even told great jokes which helped me with a chuckle during planning (i.e. I do the best makeup in town). Everything turned out amazing. Little did he know, I work for the Oklahoma Insurance Department in Oklahoma, it is my job to regulate prepaid funeral home statues in Oklahoma. THIS FAMILY IS AMAZING!!! After our services he even allowed me to park my deceased sisters car in their parking lot until the wrecker service came to tow it away. This was not included in our services purchased. Although there was another funeral service being held during the time her car was parked, they still gave us the space. They were not rude and allowed me to use the space until I was able to have the car removed. You cannot go wrong with Billman-Hunt; while I hope to never need them again, I would use their funeral home and services again. Thank you guys so much!!!

The staff here are just amazing. I do not know how Rob does it but he has a way of making the most painful and tearful moments a laughter filled one. Never once did he say the body. He referred to the dead by what they were, and did so naturally. Know that you have the gift of inspiration and hope, continue to bring comfort to those in grief. Thank you so much.

On November 17th 2020 we lost a dear friend and Family member JJ! It was a truly devasting shock to all who knew him and his Family in New Zealand. Having never had the personal experience in coordinationing after-life care, I was referred to Billman-Hunt by the social worker at Hennepin County hospital. Rob was absolutley incredible with his compassion, efficiency and utter respect for our loved one. He coordinated JJs afterlife while communicating with me here in MN, as well as his next of kin in New Zealand. Rob was always available and every single step he took was in the best interests of JJ and our/his families wishes. It is difficult to explain, but Rob has an amazing, genuine character about his demeanor; he puts you at ease, he takes charge and handles all the logistics of afterlife, and he does so in such an efficient, caring, and selfless manner. Rob is a unique person and I am so thankful for his assistance.

Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel made arranging my Grannys funeral the easiest part of her passing. Robert went above & beyond his duties to make the process as stress less as possible. The care & attention to detail shown really made us feel like family. I HIGHLY recommend Billman-Hunt for all of your post life needs. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, the family of Rochelle Turner 🙏🏽

This Funeral Home is where you want your love one because Mr. Hunt and his staff does not treat this place like a business for the sole purpose of making money. They were very kind and compassionate throughout our grieving process. They assisted us with the financial process and basically took a lot of the burden off our shoulders. Mr. Hunt answered all of our familys request almost immediately everytime we had a question or needed information. Thank you all so much for Everything

Rob Jr was amazing!! He was the only one willing to pick up my mothers body when she died last Thursday. Everyone else showed up then refused to take her because her husband who disappeared and would not sign next of kin. It may take months to sort all this out but he has made this a good experience for me any family. We will have a beautiful service in a nice place so my family can come to yes with all of this. Thank you so much Rob

My family was faced with an unexpected death as my oldest brother unknowingly had stage 3 cancer. We noticed a lot of weight loss but he was saying he saw the Dr. And everything was ok. We found out the truth while he was on his death bed. When he passed we didnt know what to do but Im SOooo grateful my mother-in-law referred me to Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel. They are such a blessing. Ron had such a great attitude and you could feel the sincerity, love and desire to truly help my family navigate through a very difficult time. I also signed up for the grievance help emails and that has been a great help for me. I would definitely refer people to Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel as its not just a business but a place where they are passionate about helping ALL families during the loss of loved ones.

Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel does everything youd want a business to do. They are honest, courteous, caring, helpful, responsive and fair. During these trying times, they did their best to make everything as easy as possible. I felt like I was the only customer they had, they were always available. Im happy that our family decided to Billman-Hunt for my mothers service and Id recommended them to anyone.

These guys are awesome. Family owned funeral home in the heart of Northeast. Assisted wonderfully with helping my siblings and I with my fathers recent passing. Rob Jr and Jeff were polite, kind, prompt, and extremely easy to work with. Loosing someone is an extremely hard thing to deal with, but luckily for Billman-Hunt, they made the unfamiliar process smooth and easy. Thank you guys for all of your help!

Rob was absolutely wonderful to work with, right from the beginning!! Very compassionate, patient, friendly, and genuinely warm personality. He answered all of my questions, walked me through all the steps, and explained everything clearly. He took care of everything that needed to be done, for my brother in law. I felt like I really was family, working with him. Thank you, again for all youve done!!

These Men actually care about what happens when your loved one passes, they go through everything with you to make sure you are satisfied. Thank God they are understanding & I do not recommend at all the funeral on Park Avenue & 24th in South Minneapolis because they are horrible people. The employees here at Billman Hunt understand the whole process because they themselves have been through hardships in life & they work hard to get things done your way. Thank you so much guys for the help!!! Life is hard but we must move on. Also they help & respect people of color which is amazing since I am one myself. People of color are wanted here at Billman Hunt. Thank God for good people with true hearts, Thanks again Billman hunt!!!

Rob Hunt Jr. was absolutely amazing! From day one of my prearrangement form completion to urn and death certificate pick-up, Rob treated my family and our deceased Father with dignity and respect. His caring words throughout the entire process helped ease my familys pain and anxiety. Born and raised in NE Minneapolis, Dad would be extremely proud of the services provided by Rob Jr. and the staff at Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel. With no reservations, I highly recommend their services!RIP Robert Lee Young/ Aug 25, 1933- Apr 22, 2020.Sincerely,Robin and Mark DuffneyJoe YoungTony and Kelly YoungJohn and Colleen YoungMaria Young-Cokley

Both Rob and Jeff took great care of us. They helped us with an unexpected death. They were very helpful and not at all pushy. They had great ideas for us and pointed us to other services (flowers, food, etcetera) in many price points that were very helpful. Mostly, they were a true down to earth family business that is professional yet personal. I highly recommend them!

I never in a million years thought I would have to bury the love of my life, my soul mate, my bestfriend, my Husband at such a young age. We planned a lifetime together. We wanted to be married like our grandparents celebrating 50, 60 years of marriage... That was all taken away from us because of Cancer!! All our dreams, all our goals, everything we survived together for the past 23 years, it was all just ripped away from me the moment my husband took his last breath. The day before I had talked to Rob Sr. About question trying to prepare myself... Rob Sr. Told me, Honey go home and spend as much time as possible with your husband, Dont worry about any if this right now. We will take care of you when the time comes. I wasnt sure how to feel about that at the time, but I did exactly what he said and went home to my husband! Unfortunately around 3am I had to make the call to a funeral home to come get my Bestfriend. I didnt even think twice and called Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel. I was in such a daze and couldnt barley talk or see. But the 2 young men that came to get my husband were so respectful and so caring which made it a little bit easier letting my husband leave my side. The next day I went in to start arrangements. Rob Jr was The one who mainly walked me thru everything. He was very professional, very Honest, very caring and over all The entire family at Billman-Hunt did such a beautiful, gracious job at handling the arrangements Im happy I went here instead of anywhere else! They have stayed in contact with me to make sure our kids and myself are doing ok, and I respect that very much! They are not all about the MONEY they are all about making sure your loved ones wishes are carried out the way they wanted! Thank you Billman-Hunt Family for everything all of you have done for us.P.s.Thank you for working around Christmas and NEW years with us and making sure we were able to say our final goodbye to My Husband, (Father, Son, Grandpa, Nephew, Uncle, grandson and Friend. ❤ )Love,The Copeland Family.

This is a long and sad story so please bear with me, but I received the best service from Rob at Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel. My friends friends son was a foreign university student from China. Unfortunately, he ended his own life in February. My friend reached out to me to help get the students remains back to China. I didnt have any experience with this kind of thing, but due to the pandemic restrictions, the students family could not come to the United States. I was the only one who could help him as I was already in the US. I used Google to find Rob and his services. He moved the remains from the countys medical center to his funeral home immediately. He went above and beyond and did so many extra tasks for the family like going to the students dorm to find his passport. He also collected and listed all of his valuable belongings and sent pictures of them to his family. Rob also put the students car into storage in his own place because the dorm did not allow the car to sta y there. Rob also contacted the Chinese Consulate in Chicago and prepared all of the documents the Consulate needed. The thing that really stood out to me was that Rob drove the hearse car all the way from Minneapolis with the casket to the Chicago International Airport to try and catch the soonest flight to China. This really moved me. I am so glad I had Rob to help me out with everything. Rob told me he was so glad he could get the chance to help the students family be able to say goodbye to their loved one.This is a long but miserable story. My friend’s friend’s child is an overseas student from China. Ended his life in February this year for various reasons. Because during the epidemic, the childrens family members cannot come to the United States, so the task of bringing the children home is given to me who knows nothing. I found Rob on Google and he gave me the best service. He took the child from the medical center back to his funeral center in the first place. In addition, he has done a lot of extra work for the childrens family. For example, find his passport in his relics, and send photos of his valuable relics to family members separately. He also put his car in his garage because the dormitory would not allow it to park. He is also preparing to transport the childrens documents back to the Chinese Consulate in Chicago. What moved me most was that he drove the coffin to the Air China Cargo Center in Chicago in order to send the child home as soon as possible. Rob said that he is very happy to do something for the childs family.

I couldnt ask for a better family business to help us through such a difficult time. My brother left for us in Minnesota and my parents wanted to move him to South Texas, we had no idea how this would work, and Rob assisted us every step of the way. He educated us and prepared us for all the possibilities without giving us false hope, he warned us that if for whatever reason they did not let my brothers body ride on the plane, his own brother could drive 24 hours on the way to South Texas, so that my brother will come to rest close to family. Rob even called us after all to make sure my brother arrived safely. I recommend them, because they were always available for all of our questions, and the service we received was like we left their own family.I couldnt have asked for a better family business to help us through this difficult time.

Rob even called us a few days later to confirm my brother had made it home to us. Very highly recommend this family business, as they were always available for our many questions and the service we received was as if we were one of their own.
