Wonderful! Mr Hunter and family made a very difficult situation a lot easier with their professionalism and kind words. I would highly recommend them. I had a service for my mom at the funeral home and also have had several pets cremated. He is wonderful.

Hunter funeral services performed cremation services for my beloved cat. Mr Hunter was very prompt and showed up at my door in dress clothes to personally deliver my cat’s urn. It was beautiful and he was very very professional.

Our female cockatiel, Pumpkin, was with us for 14 years and was a large part of our family. When she died last Thursday, my wife and I were totally grief stricken.  We wanted to have her remains cremated so we could keep her with us. Last Friday, we took Pumpkin to Hunter Funeral Home and met with Mr. William Hunter. He treated us with dignity and Pumpkin's remains with respect.
 Mr. Hunter brought Pumpkin home to us yesterday, three days after we had left her in his care. Our home is thirteen miles from Mr. Hunter's funeral home.
Pumpkin's ashes are in the beautiful cherry wood urn that Mr. Hunter provided. It rests on our mantel.  We are at peace thanks to Hunter Funeral Home.

Had to put my dog down on August 15th.  Mr. Hunter picked her up from the vet's office that evening.  He had her cremated and delivered her to me the following week.  The service provided was impeccable.  And being that it was a horrible time for me, losing my beloved dog of 14 years, it was comforting to know that I didn't have to worry.  I knew a couple days ahead of time that she was goiing to have to be put down and immediately called Mr. Hunter.  He was recommended by our veternarian.  The phone was picked up immediately and the arrangements were made right then.  It was a great worry lifted.  And let me focus 100% on my last days with my dog.

When I called, Mr. Hunter was so caring and understanding. He was here within 1/2 hour to pick Zeus up and treated us both with such care and sympathy. I will never use anyone else for the care of my pets who have passed.

Bill Hunter was extremely kind and sympathetic when picking up Panda and was very gentle with her.  He brought her back to us a few days later, and again was so very professional and kind.  We were very happy with everything he did.

Mr Hunter is very kind, thoughtful, considerate and professional. He made me feel better with his weeds and the way he handled everything. This was the second animal I have entrusted to him and will use his services in the future.

They handled this difficult situation very well.  They were caring, yet very professional.  They went above and beyond in expediting paper work to be filled.
