Funeral Services

A funeral offers relatives and friends time to gather, share memories, support one another and say goodbye in a way that feels comfortable for the family.

Traditional Funeral Service

A traditional funeral service may include visitation the evening before and a service in the chapel, church or another chosen location. A procession and committal may follow, with a reception for family and friends. Readings, music and personal details can make the ceremony your own.

Memorial Service

A memorial service can take place at the funeral home, a family residence, an eldercare centre, a church or outdoors. It offers family and friends time to remember and celebrate a life, before or after burial or cremation.

Committal Service

A committal service is a brief gathering at the gravesite or place of service, where family and friends can say a final goodbye.

Direct Disposition

Direct cremation or burial is arranged without a funeral ceremony. Our staff can explain the required paperwork and permits, and help you understand available choices.

Cremation Services

Cremation does not mean giving up the opportunity to gather, remember and honour a loved one. Families can choose from a range of meaningful service options.

A variety of options

A service or memorial may take place before or after cremation. Families may choose a gathering, a personalized ceremony, and a final resting place that reflects their wishes.

Gatherings & ceremonies

Music, readings, stories and personal items can help create a service that reflects a person’s life. A ceremony may be simple, contemporary, religious or secular.

Final disposition

Cremated remains may be buried, placed in a columbarium, kept at home or scattered where permitted. A funeral director can help families consider their options and any local requirements.

Making the right choice

Our funeral service professionals are available to answer questions and help you consider the choices that matter to your family.

At Your Time of Need

Our funeral directors offer flexibility and personal attention, helping families make arrangements and take care of necessary details.

Guidance through arrangements

We can help you consider the time, place and type of service, and work with your family’s wishes and faith traditions.

When a death occurs away from home

One call to the funeral home can begin coordination for bringing a loved one into our care from another community or further away.

Paperwork and expenses

Funeral directors can assist with the necessary documents and explain available choices, so families can decide what is appropriate for their needs and budget.

Information to have ready

When you are able, it may help to gather the date and place of birth and death, marital status, occupation, and parents’ names and birthplaces. We can help you through the required forms.

Prearrangement

Planning ahead gives you time to consider your preferences and share important information in an unhurried setting.

A plan that reflects your wishes

You can discuss the service, visitation, personal touches, cemetery information and other choices with a funeral director.

Prepayment is not required

Prearranging does not require prepayment. If you are considering prepayment or other arrangements, a director can explain options and answer questions.

A conversation at your pace

You can meet with a director at the funeral home or in the comfort of your own home, and discuss family information, cemetery details, service preferences and personal touches.
