Testimonials

I am extremely thankful for the employees and staff of Daniel Funeral Homes who make a very difficult time a little easier. On behalf of my family, thank you.

– Chris R., St. Cloud

Remarkable people—extraordinaire service!

We recently worked with the Daniel’s team on the passing of our mother. My parents had decided long ago to have Daniel’s assist our family in carrying out their final burial plans and wishes. This decision was based on our parent’s lengthy relationship with the family, dating back to the “west end”, as well as their absolute confidence in the Daniel’s ability to ensure every detail would be respectfully and lovingly executed. And now we can testify to what our parents had known all along—the Daniel’s team is simply a cut above the rest! We will be forever grateful to Michael Daniel and the rest of the Daniel’s team for the assistance and comfort they provided us at the times of both our parents passing!

Words aren’t enough to thank the team at Daniels for the care they took of my sister and nephew when my brother in law passed suddenly. They did such an amazing job of communicating and handling things for us as we were all out of state on vacation. Nothing was missed and we were kept in the loop each step of the way.

You do a fantastic job. I didn’t realize how great you were until we had to work with another service for a relative. You are highly regarded in our family. Thank you!

Everything was absolutely perfect. The service from the beginning until the end was outstanding. Every staff member was so kind, understanding, and never rushed us – thank you Maria, Eric, Phil, Theresa and everyone for all you did to help our family.

Thank you, especially for your professional and gentle manner in which you helped our family through this extremely emotional and difficult time. God Bless you and may you be safe and healthy.

– The Theisen Family

Thank you to everyone at Daniel’s for the care of our father at the time of his passing. As a child, when a family member died, they always worked with Daniel’s and now I understand why. The care taken of our dad was as if he was one of your own. Thank you and God Bless You All.

– The Lyon Family

Everyone at Daniel’s are so helpful. They take care of everything while the family can worry about other matters. They are kind, thoughtful, considerate, and all ways professional.

– The Guggenberger Family

You (Mike) guided us step by step in the planning with options and ideas. Took the time with our grown sons and myself both for the wake and the church ceremony. He always kept us informed ahead. You were well organized, delivered verbally – excelled our expectations in every way. Thanks.

– The Steichen Family

I want to thank Daniel Funeral Home for the wonderful memorial service and aftercare booklet they gave me. Phil O. highlighted each part of the book that pertained to me. Erica contacted life insurance companies and got forms and lots of information for me. These two and Kelly at the front desk made my life painless and doable. They were always welcoming and happy to greet me. Thank you so kindly to a classy operation!

– The Paquette Family

We worked with Eric in 2011 for Dad’s funeral. This past year we worked with him again for Mom’s. After 14 years he remembered us. Both times he was very thorough and patient. Again, as back in 2011, he was great to work with. 

– Mike Leedahl, Avon

Eric Daniel and his remarkable staff are truly outstanding! Eric has assisted our family with three funerals, and each time he has gone above and beyond to ensure that every detail is taken care of. He works with compassion, honesty, patience, and has a heartfelt concern for his clients. Eric is a true professional who understands every aspect of his business, which creates trust and peace for the family during a very difficult time. Eric and his staff create an atmosphere of respect and reverence for the deceased and do everything possible to take care of family members and guests. I highly recommend Eric and the Daniel Funeral Home. 

– Mary Seitzer, St. Cloud

Recently, Daniel has helped us through a difficult time for our family. Everyone we came in contact with was amazing, understanding, and very caring about our needs. Maria was the first person who helped us, and she was so wonderful. Mike was with us the day of the service, and he is excellent at keeping us moving forward and helping us every step of the way. We can’t say enough about the service we received. 

– Kathy DeZeller, Avon

I want to thank the team for guiding my family and me through all of the steps of this process during a painful part of our lives. They were patient, caring, and very professional from beginning to end. I am very pleased with how everything was handled. 

– Hayden Botz, Montrose

Daniel Funeral Home gave me the utmost respect and patience while I planned both of my parents’ funerals in the last 2 years. My requests to style my mom’s hair and come back a few times to add photos to the DVD were so peacefully welcomed. Mike Daniel and his team had a graciousness about them that helped make the most difficult times in life, planning a funeral, feel like a healing process. My parents were shown reverence at Daniel Funeral Home, and trusting them was effortless. A heartfelt thank you! Melisa and family.

My husband had never experienced the loss of a parent until his father passed away in September of 2024. Eric Daniel took care of our family with kindness and compassion. We were even able to lighten the mood by sharing some laughs here and there. Eric explained the funeral process thoroughly upon our first meeting together. He was also meticulous about details the night before and the day of the service. Eric made it feel like we were all family. For that, we are grateful, and this is why we highly recommend Daniel Funeral Home services in your time of need.

– Opatz Family, St. Joseph

Rebecca was amazing. The whole family loved how kind and thoughtful she was. The process was easy with her. She explained things and answered all of our questions, and more. I am sure everyone there is wonderful, but I am so glad we had Rebecca. I cannot speak highly enough for our experience.

We were very happy with everything; all of the questions were answered, and everything was taken care of very well. Great job! We have used your services for both of my parents, in-laws, and paternal grandparents. We plan on using you as well for our own funerals.
