Reviews of Hooker & Whitcomb Funeral Home (Mortuary)

Adam Lash

Stay away. They are predatory. As executor of my Mom's estate I had to deal with these folks. They were given notice and the opportunity to file their debt with the court, which they didn't do. Instead they began to threaten and verbally abuse me and my attorney. Less than a week after my Mom's estate was closed the folks at Hooker & Whitcomb began calling me, the law firm that helped me handle the estate, and my brother. They were threatening, verbally abusive, and incredibly hostile. Despite having their chance to formally declare the debt to the court, and the estate being closed, they've threatened legal action against me personally and have indicated, after I told them there was nothing left to pay them, they will be taking legal action against me. When told by both my lawyer and myself that the executor cannot be held personally liable for the debts of the estate they indicated that they didn't care and would be moving forward anyway. Whether these are just threats intended to scare me or not, I'm hopeful that by sharing this that others won't find themselves in the same position with these folks. I wish that there had been money to cover all the expenses associated with the estate, but there wasn't. I too am out a significant amount of money, far more than Hooker & Whitcomb were, from administrating the estate. It's an unfortunate situation all around. But these folks and their behavior is not only unprofessional, but out of line. If nothing else hopefully my experience can save others from having to go through the same thing.

I can’t say enough good things about Hooker and Whitcomb. True professionals and extremely caring. This is not just an occupation but also a calling to them.
