4.9 8 Reviews

Hill Funeral Home & Cremation Services is a funeral home in Puyallup, Washington. The location serves families throughout the Puyallup area and offers burial services, cremation services, pre-need planning, and veterans services including military honors.


Hill Funeral Home was established in 1908 by Ernest Newville Hill, a Spanish-American War veteran and licensed embalmer and funeral director. Hill is credited with introducing the first motor-powered funeral coaches in Pierce County. The business passed to Ernest's son, R. Vernon Hill, and continued as a locally owned family operation through five generations of the Hill family. For much of its history, the funeral home was located at 217 E Pioneer Ave in Puyallup before relocating to its current address.


The facility offers private viewings and identification viewings. Hill Funeral Home does not operate an on-site cemetery, an on-site crematory, or reception space, and does not offer pet cremation services.


Hill Funeral Home holds certification as a Veterans Funeral Specialist provider and coordinates burial with national, state, and tribal veterans' cemeteries. Families frequently identify individual staff members by name in reviews, noting their patience and consistent responsiveness throughout the arrangement process.

Last month, I had the occasion to work with Hill Funeral Home and Cremation Services and the entire difficult and complicated experience was made better because of the Hills staff’s compassion, competency and caring. My aunt unexpectedly passed away while in transit from her home in Vietnam to her second home in New Jersey. During the layover at the Seattle -Tacoma airport, she had a stroke, collapsed, was hospitalized and died within days. When we were informed that our aunt would not survive, I immediately looked online for a funeral home and cremation service in the Seattle area while being in Washington DC. We knew that she would want to be buried next to her beloved husband in Vietnam. Not many funeral homes have the expertise in shipping the ash remains internationally because of strict regulations from different countries. After the initial talk to Heather at Hill, I called and talked to a few more funeral homes but concluded that Hill knew best what we needed. Both directors Heather and Renae were kind, patient, and knowledgeable. I requested that Hill give us the exact time of cremation so that families and relatives im both countries could coordinate a rosary and prayer for our aunt and Hill assisted us. Hill worked closely with me throughout the whole ordeal of cremation, getting info from various offices, completing all required paperwork and shipping the remains to Vietnam. They kept us informed and always returned our calls. We learned a lot from the experience and are truly grateful for the service and support received from Hill Funeral Home and Cremation Services.
