Words cannot express the gentle, compassionate care we received working with Ryan Hobbs at Walker Funeral Homes. My son committed suicide in Toledo and we had to handle all the arrangements over the phone, as we are in California. Ryan went above and beyond in everything he did. He is truly a special soul, and we will forever be grateful for his kindness. Our entire family recommends Walker Funeral Home and its services.

Walker Funeral Homes handled the affairs of a close friend of mine. His father-in-law passed away and I paid my respects to the family at the Sylvania Avenue location. First and for out-of-towners, location. Walker’s is simple to find with a friendly location just west of Corey Road. There is a Corey Road exit of I-475 which made discovering Walker’s easy. Parking, too, was more than ample given the business has two parking lots to the east and west. To the north is the Sylvania Arboretum making the view from the front of Walker’s peaceful and beautiful, even while gazing over a busy street. Guest services. By this I mean greetings and salutations given by the Walker staff. I was made comfortable entering the large and beautiful building. Two Walker staffers were there to greet me in friendly fashion, and they attire was spot-on professional. They suggested the party name, kindly point the direction of the rooms AND suggested I sign the Guest Register. Very nice. The room and viewing areas were well appointed, not entirely understated by a calming color scheme, well managed accoutrements and nice facilities for men & women. There were HDTV for family picture flow. The placements of flowers were well arranged. Leaving I was thanked by Walker staff for attending. In my mind I don’t imagine there being a smoother operation in Toledo.

A multi-generational locally-owned family funeral home, they did an outstanding job on my dad’s funeral in 2000. He had terminal cancer, and we were able to do some pre-planning with Keith and his staff prior to my dad’s death. They were amazing to work with, and so very comforting when he did pass. One phone call put everything in motion. Their facility is tastefully decorated and includes private rooms for the families. In recent years a number of friends have used Walker for their loved ones, and I have heard only glowing reviews.
