Coltrin Mortuary and Cremation in Idaho Falls exceeded my expectations. They were recommended by a family member, and Im very glad I took that advice. My brothers and I had buried my mom almost 3 years ago through another funeral home in the same town, and the difference in experience was clear. Kelby was incredibly helpful, transparent, and compassionate. There were no hidden fees or unexpected costs, and everything was explained clearly. Unlike other places that wouldnt provide quotes over the phone, Coltrin was upfront and willing to walk me through estimates before we ever met in person. Going through a loss is difficult enough, and not having to worry about the funeral arrangements between the church and Coltrin Mortuary was one less thing I had to carry. Everything was handled smoothly and respectfully. I would confidently recommend them to others.

We buried my father, Howard Eloe, on Tuesday October 10. I was very pleased with the services provided by Buck-Murphy Funeral Home & Cremation Services. They were respectful of the family and the family's wishes, and they honored entirely the financial arrangements that Howard had made with Buck-Miller Funeral Home more than 15 years ago. I recommend their services without reservation.

This team will make you feel your best, while going through your worst. With the hardest news of my life I am so thankful I made the best decision of funeral home for my Dad, myself, and my family. Our loss had obstacles that I dont think I could have navigated without Tina, Josh, and the rest of the Buck-Murphy family. They were helpful, considerate, and went above what they were obligated to do. I will forever be grateful for them. I highly recommend their establishment for anybody facing the whirlwind that comes with losing a loved one. We love you Buck-Murphy team!

The people here were very nice and helpful when I lost my puppy dog Isabella they helped me get a beautiful urn and a great last paw print if you want to be able to get your fur babies creammaded this is a good place to go. You just let them know what you want and it does take about a week to get there ashes back. If you already have a urn they can put your loved fur babies in it for you to help you out. It sucks to lose any of our loved ones but it does help when you have people that are willing to help the best they can. They can pick up your fur babies from some vets and take them back a week later or you can go to there place and drop off your fur babies and in a week pick them up. If you have any questions feel free to call there number and they will help you out the best they can.

We lost our sweet lil Louie suddenly. It was on a Saturday and when we found Staker Cremation we called. Left a message and they returned our call within 30 minutes. We made an appt for Monday Morning. When we got there we were greeted immediately. We were explained our options. She was very helpful. We chose our sweet box and had his name engraved. Cost was very reasonable. I highly recommended them. They are very caring and very patient.
