Highly recommend!
Professional, Affordable, Clean & Great Service!

Had my Moms funeral here and was so happy with HHPB that I had to write a review. They are flexible with your ideas and fill in all the gaps. These guys are not about up sells and cashing in on your misfortune.

Worked with Lynne. Great selections & service. Stop here first before you get ripped off somewhere else.
