As someone who was completely unprepared to plan a funeral for the unexpected and very shocking loss of a loved one, I can say that the people who work here are some of the most patient and caring people I have ever met. They handled everything with extreme care, worked with us every step of the way, and provided a tender touch to three grieving and broken daughters who had just lost their mother. Thank you to each of you individually and all of you collectively. We absolutely felt God's hand in our decision to choose Hutchinson Funeral Chapel to lay our mother to rest.

Hutchinson Funeral Chapel was absolutely amazing. Through the hardest times they were readily available every step of the way. Very empathetic, knowledgeable, easy to contact and quick to respond. They were fantastic at allowing the family to be as involved as they would like in addition to being there to guide and step in at any moment. They go above and beyond to help celebrate your loved one and help in any way they can to make the process run smoothly. I highly recommend them to absolutely anyone.

I will say that the staff was really amazing to work with. I was planing my brother's cremation and I felt like every question was answered and they help guide me through the veterans procedure. I feel like I received the best service I could ask for. They were caring and totally professional. V

Sarah is absolutely the most caring and patient professional I've ever met. She went above what was needed and expected. My family would not of been able to go through this difficult time without her by our side. Thank you

They were able to take a horrific situation and make it simpler. Gary was very compassionate throughout the process and my family cannot thank him, and the rest of the staff for the kindness and professionalism shown to us. Payment options were very nice and they were mindful of the fact that this was sudden and not expected, helping keep costs down but still able to have a respectful and unique service.

We appreciated the professional service for Dads funeral recently. They honored our requests, did a nice job with the preparation, and communicated well - all on a fairly tight time frame. We especially appreciated Rubys kind and skilled help.

This funeral home took care of a good friend of mine, then later, sadly, My mom. They were great, and didn't try to up sale or guilt me into buying things that were out of my reach financially. We all want the best for our loved ones, but not everyone can afford the top notch. Especially when someone passes unexpectedly. They really give you peace of mind. The only complaint I have is the invoice I got in the mail later. I didn't need an itemized list of what was done behind the scenes, as some of those things are jarring to see, but that's just my opinion. Perhaps others would want to know all that. Thank you. :)
