About Hippensteel Funeral Service & Crematory

Hippensteel Funeral Service & Crematory is an independently owned funeral home in Lafayette, Indiana, which may appeal to families who prefer working with a locally rooted provider rather than a corporate chain. As a full-service funeral home with an on-site crematory, they are equipped to handle both burial and cremation services directly, without outsourcing cremation to a third party — a detail that matters to some families. Direct cremation starts at $3,065, which sits on the higher end of what many families encounter in comparable markets, so it may be worth requesting a full price list to compare costs before making a decision. Their Google rating of 3.9 stars across 26 reviews suggests a generally positive reputation, though the relatively small number of reviews means individual experiences carry more weight; families may want to look beyond the rating and read through the reviews themselves to get a fuller picture.

They are all about business. They have no sympathy for the family. They told me my Mom's ashes would be placed in a urn. The man pointed to two urns said she would be placed in one.

I wish there was a way to offer less than a single star for the service - and I use that term loosely- that my family received from this funeral home. The celebrant mispronounced my uncle's name twice during the service! Isn't the name something that should be glanced at beforehand? They told my aun…
