8 Decades Serving North St. Paul Families

5.0 23 Reviews

Sandberg Funeral & Cremation Services is a funeral home in North St. Paul, Minnesota, serving families in the North St. Paul area and surrounding communities. The funeral home provides burial services, cremation services, funeral and memorial services, pre-need planning, and ash scattering assistance. Spanish-language arrangements are available.


Sandberg Funeral & Cremation Services was founded in 1942 by Gustaf P. "Gus" Sandberg under the name Sandberg Mortuary in Historic Downtown North St. Paul. Gus Sandberg's sons, Paul and Bill Sandberg, joined the business in 1955 and assumed full operations in 1963. Bill Sandberg served simultaneously as co-owner of the funeral home and Mayor of North St. Paul for 29 consecutive years, from 1979 to 2008. Mary Kaye Sandberg, Paul's daughter, joined the firm in 1987 and assumed operations in 1998, representing the third generation of family leadership. The business was incorporated under its current name by 2010.


The facility includes a chapel, private viewing rooms, and identification viewing accommodations.


Sandberg Funeral & Cremation Services does not operate an on-site cemetery or on-site crematory and does not offer pet cremation, licensed grief therapy, or legal and estate planning services.


Families frequently recognize individual staff members by name in reviews, noting their responsiveness, attention to detail, and ability to guide families through arrangements in a way that reduces stress and reflects each family's specific wishes.

The entire team at Sandberg was outstanding! From our initial meeting through the memorial service, everything was done in a supportive and professional manner. Emails and phone calls were quickly answered and they made sure every detail was handled. They made a difficult time just a little better…
