Jeff and his staff go above and beyond to help you through the tough time in your life when you lose a loved one. He will take you through every step of planning and makes the contacts to the people that need to get the job done. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the job he did for us. Thank you Volzke Funeral Home.

It was a very pleasant experience to work with Jeff & his staff regarding Funeral Service planning and details for our father Ralph’s service. He is very professional, listens, answers your questions and works hard to solve any minor problems or issues that may come up. And some of his stories can make you chuckle a bit - he reminds me a lot of his own father Deroyce. Our dad’s service and visitation were both very nice in large part because of Jeff’s guidance and covering all the details that come naturally to him due his many years of experience in his career.
Many thanks Jeff & staff.

Jeff and his family were very caring, helpful, and professional. It is without hesitation that I would recommend Volzke Funeral Home.

Jeff and his family was an incredible comfort to us during a difficult time. As both my sister and I live out of state, Jeff was willing to email, call and text outside usual business hours to ensure we were part of the planning. He was clear and concise with the directions and next steps that we needed to take in partnership. There were also many personal touches that we appreciated - ensuring my Mom had a wheelchair, that our family had extra time together during some tough moments (never felt rushed) and blankets at the cemetery when it was so cold out. I can't thank him and his family for all they did for us. I would highly recommend their services to anyone - particularly for families trying to arrange services from far away.

The service and treatment we received from the Volzke family was more than we could have asked for. They went above and beyond helping us during the worst days of our lives. Jeff and his staff made sure our loved one, Eldon Lansdown, was give all respect from the after care to the military honors provided. A million times recommend Volzke Funeral Home.

Jeff did a wonderful job for us during a very difficult time. He was so accommodating to our family/ he changed his plans so we could meet when it worked for us and his input and knowledge helped us to decide on so many things as a group. He was very considerate and patient with just the right amount of help that we needed. Would highly recommend Volzke’s - they were all great to work with.

Jeff did a great job of making sure things were the way Dad would have wanted them. He even corrected the wrong song on the video tribute on the same day as the viewing to make sure things were as we wanted. During an emotional time, it was comforting to know that Volzke's understood and were there.

We have known the Volzke family for years. It was comforting during our time of grief that Jeff and my dad had done pre-planning. Our meeting with him to do final planning was done flawlessly for my mom's visitation and service. Kirsten was very helpful in coordinating the pictures for the table and helping me get the photos ready for the slide show. The service that they provide with taking both physical and digital photos and putting them into a slide show is a wonderful addition for family and friends. I would recommend Volzke's to anyone!

We have known the Volzke family for decades. This last year has been very difficult with the passing of my father Bryce, and now this month, the passing of my 22 year old son Zachary.
One can only imagine how difficult it is to bury a son or daughter.
Zach passed due to a tragic airplane crash. It was unexpected and it literally crippled our family. Jeff and his family and staff rallied around us, helping us sort through what was coming at us next and how to deal with all the details of an accident of this caliber.
Needless to say there were a lot of details, and still are.
My family’s hearts are in tact through faith and the support of family and friends of course, but without the support and guidance of Jeff and his crew, we would have been lost.
There are no words large enough to describe the care the Volzke team takes when it comes to something as delicate as this.
Jeff, you are a true gem. You know how to comfort and keep things moving as needed.
God bless the Volzke family. We love you.
Sincerely, the Clausens.

A funeral for a loved one is a time when you need to feel everything is under control, and that someone else is taking care of it all. That's just how it was with Jeff Volzke and his staff, from planning my mother's funeral through the day of the funeral. They provided their services with the utmost compassion, care and respect. We will be forever grateful that our parents had chosen Volzke Funeral Home for the services we needed when the time came.

Having known several generations of the Volzke family it was with a feeling of trust & comfort that I made that first phone call to Jeff on April 25th. Jeff & Kirsten brought a feeling of a family working together. They provided professional expertise throughout our experience. Jeff listened to our wishes, answered our questions, made suggestions and guided us through the unknowns with compassion, sincerity, and attention to detail. Considering that my husbands vocation was music I would liken the care that we received to a well orchestrated concert with all players at their peak performance. Therefore we applaud Jeff and Kirsten for all they did for us and highly recommend Volzke Funeral Home you taking care of anyones funeral planning needs. Thank you & God Bless

Mother (and Grandmother) passed away on June 29, 2022. Volzke Funeral Home was there every step of the way, guiding us with compassion and kindness. I simply cannot say enough about Jeff & Kirsten. What amazing people and professionals. This process was completely new to us and it was such a relief to have their assistance in dealing with so many things. It allowed us to the freedom and peace to grieve mom in the right way. Words simply cannot express the gratitude the Goldsmith family has for Volzke Funeral Home and its staff.

I can't say enough good about Volzke's Funeral Home. Jeff and family took care of us from the time my mother passed until the receipt of her death certificate and beyond. Jeff is an AMAZING person to work with, so so patient with all of us in a time that you are really never ready for. They all helped us through one of the most difficult times of anyone's life with such respect and comfort. I felt they went above and beyond to make sure all our wishes were met from start to finish. THANK YOU VOLZKE'S

Jeff and his staff are the best! They made the whole process of planning for my husband's funeral very easy. Jeff is a definite 'people person', who obviously loves what he does. I don't believe you could find a better funeral home staff anywhere.

My mom passed away on 9-20-21, it was a very rough time for us..Jeff was so understanding and helpful. I chose Volzke's because they have taken care of my family before. Not gonna lie I was nervous, my biggest fear was that my mom would not look like herself. I was so impressed that she still looked like the beautiful mom I had she looked so peaceful and just looked as tho she was sleeping. Jeff answered any questions we had and was very honest and did not try to sell us stuff we didn't necessarily need...I hope we don't see him for a VERY long time (considering the line of work he is in) but when my time comes or another one of my loved one passes Volzke will be who I call..THANK YOU JEFF.
