I can not express how wonderful and compassionate everyone at Peel & Son has been. They are truly amazing! Billy, the owner, helped me every step of the way and made an difficult experience much easier. I would HIGHLY recommend this business. They are great.

This was my first planning of a funeral for a loved one. I used the AMBIS 2013 SURVEY OF AUSTIN AREA PRICES OF SELECTED FUNERAL GOODS AND SERVICES list provided to me by Hospice Austin's social worker. Austin-Peel was one of the least expensive of funeral homes and I was recommended to the owner, Mr. Billy Peel by a friend of mine that works at Assumption Mausoleum and Cemetery. My friend also works at Angel Funeral Home and he guided me to Mr. Peel because he told me that Mr. Peel would "take care of me." What surprised me was the inexpensive price for services compared to other funeral homes. The total that I paid was probably a third of what I would've paid with other funeral homes. The job they did was amazing and memorable!!! This funeral home went over and beyond to make sure that every detail of the funeral was perfect. I told Mr. Peel I did not want a funeral procession with the Austin Police as escorts and that would cut down on a lot of cost. He suggested that we have a Memorial Service in the evening and then the following day everyone would meet the hearse with the casket and flowers at Assumption Mausoleum. The Memorial Service / Visitation was perfect in every detail from the flat screen television flashing pictures of my husband's life set to country music playing in the background to the incredible automotive memorabilia provided by Leif Johnson Ford where my husband worked for 40 years. The funeral home made my husband look so great despite his terrible illness and it was all the small details that comforted me during that time. This funeral home, even the mortician and administrative assistants, namely Kelly and Joel, were awesome!! I visited them often before my event and I joked with them that I was "moving in!!" and they laughed. My experience with them convinced my family that when my Mom passes, we will definitely use Austin-Peel and son Funeral Home for our arrangements. For this high level of service and price, why would anyone go ANYWHERE ELSE?????
