Wyoming Cremation Laws

I lost my mom back in October of 2024. I had no idea how to handle anything. Champion/Kane made the services and internment decisions easy and as pleasant as possible. They were kind and caring and they were willing to answer any questions I had. I was dealing with an estate and Champion/Kane was willing to work with me on payment. I will forever be grateful for everything they have done for me and my family! Thank you so very very much.

Daniel with Kane Funeral Home is a true professional. Tragedy struck my 3 kids and i when my late wife passed away at the young age of 29 just days before her 30th birthday in November of 2023. Overwhelmed with the situation at hand I put my trust in Daniel and the staff at Kane Funeral Home. From the start they were on top of everything making sure we laid my beautiful wife to rest in the most proper and deserving way. Not once did I feel anything but tender love and care. They made sure everything was perfect and went above and beyond to make sure my 3 kids and I got everything you need in this situation. From the first interaction till we lowered the love of my life into the ground, Daniel was ontop of every little detail and he did it with such grace and preparation. You could tell his heart was hurting for my family but soldiered on to give us a perfect experience. This isn't just his job, it's what this man was called to do on God's green earth. The final chapter of this experi

This is the only place we shop though most of the products can be purchased at other stores in town. This is the furthest drive for us but we appreciate the personal customer service and the product knowledge. The owners are there most every time and they are the biggest reason we keep going back.
