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, Don't worry about any if this right now. We will take care of you when the time comes." I wasn't 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 didn't even think twice and called Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel. I was in such a daze and couldn't 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 I'm 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 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!!!
Everything was left for me to figure out with no road map. I was lost, never had to plan the next steps after the passing of a relative.....AND to be in a different state! I made one last call for the evening to Billman-Hunt to inquire about cremation services expecting to be rushed off the phone or even better...a voicemail. But instead I was greeted with a warm helping hand and a solution by the end of the call. Just that easy, a plan after my first call. Where other funeral companies treat your loved one as a price tag or number.....Billman-Hunt did not and made us their priority, even during the holidays!!! I dealt with Rob Jr. He answered all my questions, was sincere and knowledgeable. I walked away sad I had to go through this but comforted it was placed in the very capable hands of Billman-Hunt. If you are still reading and trying to decide if this is the company to go with.....stop reading the comments and give them a call, you will NOT be disappointed.
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 JJ's 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.
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 don't 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 won't 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
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 didn't know what to do but I'm 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 it's not just a business but a place where they are passionate about helping ALL families during the loss of loved ones.
ZERO STARS!!!!!!Please don't take your love one here. My brother and I lost my Dad. Somehow the guy who was working with us was very animated. My brother was okay with it but my Dad was my hero. The day of the funeral, it was suppose to start at 9am. The Funeral Direct arrived 5 minutes before start time leaving little time for set up or music. To add insult to injury my dad was left out overnight. His clothes were not properly put on. He had makeup on his shirt. His suspender were uneven and when touched my dad, I heard plastic in his stomach. He looked nothing like himself. I was so distraught at all this. Do not take your loved one here! I am still hurt by this! I been to other funerals since then and they looked like themselves. MY DAD WAS MISHANDLED SEVERELY!!!+
My mothers long time partner passed away and the family chose to have his service here. I can speak for my mother and say that Rob went above and beyond to do what he could for my mother (Sharon) who was hours away. He even recommended another resource to help gain additional funding for the service that our loved one deserved. Thank you is not nearly enough. To work in a career such as this I believe you must possess compassion, and Rob truly showed up and did all he could. It is wonderful and refreshing to see that he truly cares about those that have departed and their loved ones. Thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your kindness, support, and generosity in all ways did not go unnoticed
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 family's 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 Duffney Joe Young Tony and Kelly Young John and Colleen Young Maria Young-Cokley
Planning a funeral is hard. Planning a funeral for someone you loved dearly is even harder. After loosing my father, someone close to him recommended I meet with Jeff from Billman-Hunt and I am so glad that she did. Jeff made this tough experience as easy and affordable as possible. The space was beautiful and they did a great job getting everything ready. They helped keep track of things when my brain was struggling and they helped with applications for funding resources as well. I highly highly recommend this funeral chapel, as they care about the people they are working with. They go out of their way to help to the fullest extent.
I had my father's memorial service at Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel. All the staff I encountered were very friendly and compassionate. I personally worked a lot with Rob Jr. He went out of his way to help with putting together my father's memorial service, including figuring out plans for cremation. He was easy to get in contact with, attentive and resourceful. He made this devastating time of planning a funeral more bearable. The service was beautiful and everything went as planned. I am greatly appreciative of all the work Rob Jr. did as well as Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel in general and would definitely recommend their services.
My wife and I recently experienced a miscarriage and called Billman-Hunt to see about cremation. Rob Jr. and everyone else were so friendly and accommodating during such a difficult time. They said that experiencing a pregnancy loss is something no one should have to face, let alone see a bill for from a funeral home, so our cremation and urn was free. They helped us figure out everything and made the process as stress free as possible. Cannot possibly say how wonderful this was and how much it helped us during this rough time. I'd recommend their services to anyone, they are simply the best.
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.
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 family's request almost immediately everytime we had a question or needed information. Thank you all so much for Everything
I can’t thank Rob enough for making this process as easy as possible being that we were so many miles away. Rob made sure that everything was taking care of and he communicated along the way. I appreciate him for being so sincere and helpful during this difficult time. Rob made sure my sister made it to her final resting destination and we are forever grateful. If I could give 100 plus stars Billman-Hunt Funeral home most definitely deserves it! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
I lost my dad over a week ago and I’m clear over in Oregon, after talking to a couple funeral homes I decided to go with Rob and the Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel, and I’m so glad I did. He made everything go so smooth over the phone and kept me in the loop with things. Took good care of my Dad and navigating through my first loss of a parent and having to handle everything on my own. So big shout out and thanks again for EVERYTHING Rob!
Rob Jr was amazing!! He was the only one willing to pick up my mother's 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
Thanks you for the services you offer. So far I was 101% satisfied with your services more especially sending the departed loved ones from here USA to AFRICA more especially KENYA.I really loved the way you guys coordinated from hospital to kenyan embassy in NEW YORK for clearance. If asked how often I recommend your services to anyone I will say 10/10. Thanks to Robb Jnr and Robb snr for wonderful job you are doing. THANKS
She was beautiful as ever. Some notes: There was only one person working during the service. When the funeral director came up he ended the service with "She is flying high now, and that concludes our service". My mouth dropped open. I really hope you reconsider how you conclude your services and keep the "flying high" comments out of it. You could have been so much more sensitive during this difficult time.
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!
Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel does everything you'd 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. I'm happy that our family decided to Billman-Hunt for my mother's service and I'd recommended them to anyone.
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 you've done!!
Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel made arranging my Granny's 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
My family dealt with Rob Jr. He made us feel important and was very respectful. It's important to state they have a high respect for people of color. Rob Jr was able to help us have my brother cremated at little to no cost due to a county program none of us knew about, and other funeral homes failed to disclose to us. The people at Billman-Hunt will take care of you like family. Thank you all!
I continue to be amazed at how great the customer service is and professional all the staff are. My family have worked with Rob Jr more times than we would like, but every time Rob has provided us with a great and seamless experience. Thank you Billman-hunt for showing up for us every time. Thank you for your knowledge, support, and resources. We for sure recommend this company!
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!
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.
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.
If I could give a 5 star plus I would. My brother's funeral took place on Friday, March 25, 2022. From the beginning to the end I felt the staff was very personal and professional. I also felt that they were sensitive to the requests that were given. Thank you for making this though day a little easier to handle. I appreciate your professionalism. God Bless.
Rob Jr. was truly compassionate and professional! My dad passed away in another state and he took care of all of the paperwork regarding both states. My family and our friends of the family have been using their company over the past few years. Would strongly recommend on behalf of the level of care, service and dedication this company has shown us.

The men at Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel are so kind and understanding. They work with you and explain anything you may have questions or concerns about. My family has held 3 family members funerals there and they really do great. They truly care about you and your loved one your trying to lay to rest. I'll recommend them to everyone I know!
There are not enough words to express our heartfelt thanks. Rob Jr, and the rest of the team. y'all listened to all of our needs and made our grieving process easier. Our brother funeral was amazing. I highly recommend Rob Jr. He'd put a smile on ur face and for a minute; u will forget ur loss. Thanks man.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful is really all I can say. Rob is who helped my siblings and I after our father passed, and he truly was great, there wasn't anything he didn't answer or do and even took care of for us, thank you and all of your team for everything. I highly recommend Billman-Hunt.
I would definitely recommend working with Rob and his staff based off my own family experience. Didn't feel rushed or like I was just another customer. They took their time to explain and break down everything and we chose the best option for us. Great experience regardless of the circumstances.
Rob Jr has been a fantastic person and I never regret working with him from the day we met during my late brother Chris Nimpson funeral arrangements. He helped us so much and he was so kind compassionate respectful understanding and full of humor. He is the best so far. Rob Jr rocks.
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.
Billman-Hunt has handled many family members and friends of mine and I can truly say that they have so much compassion and empathy for you and your loved one I recommend their services to anyone who has to make these arrangements they will be there step by step
I can't say enough good about this funeral home. They made you feel like they have always known you. I lost my brother and live in North Dakota. I didn't even know where to begin. Rob took care of everything. Prompt and so friendly. Highly recommended!
It was very easy to work with the family that runs this funeral home. They were extremely kind and compassionate throughout the process and made themselves available for any questions we had, and we had a lot! Thank you Rob, Jeff and Rob, Jr.!
Jeff Hunt took amazing care of my family as we planned my mother’s funeral. He is kind, thoughtful and attentive to the smallest of details. He made the process easy and took the worries away. Extremely positive experience.
The staff at Billman-Hunt are top-notch! They are respectful, courteous and kind. In addition, they are knowledgeable and proficient in their profession, I highly recommend them for all your funeral needs.
We had 2 funerals with Billman-Hunt. They were both great for me. They had everything planned out perfectly and it didn’t seem rushed. They did great with handling everyone’s sorrow too. Very professional
We had my grandmother's funeral here and was treated with so much empathy and care. The Hunts are a wonderful family who listen to all your needs throughout the tough grieving process to make it easier.
I had a very easy experience during a very difficult time. Rob Jr. and the rest of the staff were helpful and organized. Thank you for helping us lay my father to rest exactly how we wanted .
I don't know what I would of done when my niece passed away if it had not of been for Rob Sr. So very thankful for his kindness and help in a very difficult situation. Superior service.
