For decades, Blake has been a pillar for our religious Reno community, guiding families through their most difficult moments with unwavering grace. Having relied on their services for more than 30 years, I have experienced firsthand the profound care they provide. While the occasions that bring us together are inevitably marked by loss, it is a true blessing to have such a dedicated team to help us bid farewell to loved ones, whether they are from our immediate circle or further afield. The team embodies a rare combination of cordiality, professionalism, and perhaps most importantly deeply felt empathy. They operate with total transparency, laying out every available option with such clarity that there is never any ambiguity or "grey area" during an already overwhelming time. No matter the nature of the request or the specific religious or secular traditions involved, they go above and beyond to accommodate every wish with the utmost respect. read more

Worked with Kelly Callahan for pre-planning before we left the country last summer. She fully answered all our concerns, was available for follow-up as we thought of more questions, and is the most personable, reassuring and competent in her unique profession... We highly recommend Ms. Callahan for taking care of your pre-needs. This is a wonderful and valuable service. read more

I highly recommend Walton's Funerals & Cremations. My uncle had a funeral trust with Walton's to perform his cremation. When he passed away, Walton's picked up his body and performed his cremation. I met with Amanda at Walton's Sierra Chapel location to finalize the details. She was respectful, gentle, and efficient. She helped us select a container for the cremains and answered all of our questions. After the cremation was completed, I was able to pick up my uncle's cremains at the funeral home. Everything was handled perfectly by Walton's. read more

The funeral director lead the process in a gentle way. He later drove the casket to the Veteran's cemetery in Fernley to supervise the burial of the Vet. The place is clean and well maintained and I liked the spotless bathrooms that I needed after the viewing. read more

See all

I would 100% recommend them. My mother had to be transported out of state, which added extra stress. They helped me every step of the way and walked me through everything. I'm so grateful for the staff that handled my case. read more

My grandmother came in for a scheduled appointment two days after my grandfather died. Theresa was so unbelievably rude, unhelpful and not compassionate. She seemed bothered that she even had to help her. I am disgusted by the behavior of this person who treated my grandmother with zero empathy after such a tragic loss. We are taking our business elsewhere. P.S. when we called to schedule the appointment, the gentleman on the phone said that we could see the showroom of the coffins. They showed her a list of coffins on a piece of paper during her appointment, and my grandmother picked the one she wanted. Then asked to see it in the showroom and Theresa refused. Is it too much to ask to see the coffin that her husband would be buried in? Despicable. read more

Blake, thank you so much for providing amazing service to my family this weekend. Most places wouldn't have gotten us a viewing for our lost loved one until a few days into the week. With family traveling from far, and a snow storm expected Blake was able to have a viewing ready for us the next day. This made a very difficult time so much more manageable and helped ease a stressful time for our family. Thank you for carrying on the tradition of your father and working long hours to be there for grieving families. You're the best! read more

It is hard to want to write a review for a funeral home as all too often it is for a family tragedy. This is no different today as my wife and I experienced the worst of days ever within our family. However, Craig, the Funeral Director, with Walton's is a wonderful and respectful man who treated us with so much respect in our hard time and made sure he made things as easy on us as possible in our sad times. We were able to talk things out and plan what needed to be done for the cremation without very much effort on our part. Also, I think the biggest kudos to folks like Walton's comes from the fact that they only charge the state taxes for the cremation for infant loss. It shows how understanding they are of handling the worst day ever and making people feel taken care of during their saddest moments. I truly appreciate the effort and the people at Walton's and highly recommend them to take care of your family if you should ever need the services. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Blake, and he was so beyond helpful and patient. He went above and beyond what I expected and made things a lot easier during a very difficult time. Losing my daughter and having to get my daughter cremated was already hard enough, he made the process so much simpler for me, so out family could the grieve our daughter. Thank you Walton's for you exceptional service! I truly appreciate the service I received from you! read more

I'm sorry you're in the market for their services, but they do a great job and have all the qualities you'd want for what they do: compassion, empathy, patience, transparency, respectfulness, and good communication. Take care of yourself and your family and don't worry about this decision -- they will be great. read more

My mom died on May 18th. She is still in cold storage at Walton's Funeral Home because they have not been able to get her death certificate cleared through Washoe County. It's been well over a month now and we continue to wait for her cremation. If I could, I would take the paperwork to Renown myself and get it filled out so we could have her remains back at home where she belongs. To me, this level of service is unconscionable and I would NOT RECOMMEND this funeral home. While they continue to shift the blame for this continuing oversight, they have the ultimate responsibility for getting this done! read more

Thank you so much to Sarah at waltons! She was amazing. My husband passed unexpectedly. I'm only 29 years old and never imagined having to say goodbye to my husband at such a young age. She helped me through the process all while being so sincere and empathetic. She got everything done so quickly for me so that I was able to bring my husband home to me within a week of his passing. Thank you so much Sarah!! read more

Courtney from Walton's was so kind, helpful, patient and caring. She helped me as I helped my step mom, she was clear and responsive and very friendly. All the details can be hard, and helping my Dad's widow is delicate especially while I'm grieving too. Courtney pulled it all off with ease and proficiency that I am so grateful for! read more

You want honesty, the truth go to Walton's Funeral in Reno! My family did over many years.

this company is about money. nothing more. once they have the money the rest is history. they are understaffed but over marketed. don't choose them. read more

I want to highly recommend Walton's. They made a very difficult time as easy as possible. They were very professional, compassionate, and friendly. Our need came quickly and they were very accommodating. I want to thank Blake Howe and all of the people we dealt with. read more

We had a horrible experience with a funeral home in town. We spoke to Mike and he made all the necessary arrangements for our loved one to be transferred to Walton's. The professional service and care for our loved one was exceptional. Mike was extremely professional and sympathetic to our loss. Walton's went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you Walton's for the care you provided to our loved one and family. read more

It took me a while to write this review because it's still a little painful, but I wanted to thank Blake at Walton's for everything he did for my daughter and family. My baby passed away and while it is easily the hardest thing I've ever been through, Blake did everything he could to help me not worry about how she was cared for once I had to let her go physically. I think that speaks volumes about him and his staff. It's never easy, but he was with me every step of the way, helping me find the perfect urn and keeping me updated on where she was at all times. He even spent a good amount of time talking to me at the funeral home. When not a lot of people knew what to say to me, he was there offering support. I feel like Walton's and Blake honored her life and I'll forever be grateful for them. read more

Terrible staff, over-priced and quality of items are awful! Staff was rude and lied about several things in terms of when and where our items would be ready to pick up. Ignorant trust company chose this funeral home despite where we originally wanted to go. This joke of a funeral home even misspelled the first name of the person whom passed!!! We can't believe that we had to deal with this during such a hard time! read more

We highly recommend Walton's Funerals and Cremations especially Mercedes Quartucci, Funeral Arranger. My father passed suddenly and we were from out of town. Mercedes was welcoming, professional, patient and calming under these stressful circumstances. She took care of the large and small details before we even knew to ask. She worked miracles in getting the death certificates done expeditiously. We greatly appreciated all of her good work. Tom and Karen read more

I wanted to thank Tom Hajec who assisted my wife and mother-in-law with the passing of Uncle Mark. The compassion and care shown to my family was beyond our expectations. Uncle Mark's passing was unexpected but he did have his final requests completed with the help of Tom this made everything extra simple. Not sure how many people will use YELP when the time comes if you do please know this review doesnt begin to share the compassion and professionalism shown by the staff at Walton's. read more

This not review I look forward to doing however Mike Hukill and the team that came to receive my loved one was courteous and professional. My loved one purchased one of Walton's plans in the 1980's when I called to start the arrangements I spoke with Mike he was pleasent and understanding, though I had my copies Mike informed me if I didn't he had copies. This was the start of holiday season, family informed how long the process could take, I was concerned and I hope that we could move a little quicker Miike insured me that things would be okay and he would update me. Long story short I am grateful that my loved one purchased from Walton's as they were professionals as one would hope to have at this time. Again thank you Mike read more

I was blown away by the generosity, customer service and genuine care for my needs. Beautiful upkeep of its facility! In such a traumatic time I am glad I chose Waltons to care for my son. read more

After our Mother passed away we contacted Walton's Funeral Home, on second street in Reno, Nevada. The compassion of Walton's is beyond anything I had expected. Blake and the whole staff were very compassionate and kind. They put our minds at ease very quickly. We can't thank you enough for all the kindness you showed during this most difficult time. Thanks just doesn't seem enough... but please know how much you were and are appreciated. read more

The staff here were extremely helpful and didn't try to oversell me on more expensive options. They would earn a 5 star rating if their cremation fees weren't so excessive.That being my only issue, they did a good job on my wife's service. read more

I am utterly disappointed in this place. I would stay far away. Mike Hukill is the funeral director and let me tell you from the minute we walked in he was rude, rude , rude!!!!! My grandmother was taken there after she passed which was the only reason we ended up doing some business with them. They wrote out my grandmothers death certificate and made a HUGE mistake by labeling my grandmother as "Mexican." When we NEVER approved Mexican because NO ONE IS MEXICAN in my family. Not only was this a mistake but a RACIST mistake. Mike was extremely rude on the phone when we called to tell them their mistake, Mike wouldn't acknowledge that they racially labeled my grandmother. When a person says "HISPANIC" that does NOT automatically mean MEXICAN OR CUBAN or PUERTO RICAN or Whatever else. You need to ask what origin a person is from !!!! I will be taking this MUCH further. If you want to be treated kindly while grieving and going through a difficult time stay away from this place !!!!!!!! read more

Walton's Funeral has giving me and my family support and understanding throughout a very sad time in my life. They explained and assisted us through the process and offered services in the most professional matter. I would recommend their services in full confidence that you will find it satisfying. read more

When my mother died, the last thing I wanted to deal with was the funeral arrangements, but the staff at Walton's actually provided me with such great assistance, support and kindness - making the arrangement for my mom's funeral actually was an important part of our healing process. On the day of the funeral, they made sure that every detail was attended to, but you really didn't even notice they were there, because they were so professional. As I move further away from the funeral, I realize what an important service they provided me and what wonderful support they were for me and my family. read more

I would recommend them to anybody that has to go through the loss of a loved one. They were so helpful. I would not have been able to do all this without them. If you find yourself trying to do this all on your own you can count on them to make it easier. read more
