Begin arranging
A steady hand,
for every kind of farewell.
Traditional funerals, cremation, memorial services and planning ahead — guided by people who live in your community, and priced so you can see every choice clearly.
Dignified, within reach, and clearly priced — since 1907.
For more than a hundred years, families across Western Canada have entrusted our homes with the people they love. In that time the choices have widened — cremation, celebrations of life, green burial — but what families need from us has not changed.
They need someone to answer the phone at three in the morning. They need to understand what happens next and what it will cost. And they need to know the person they have lost is being looked after with care.
Dignified
Every person who comes into our care is treated the way we would want for our own family — with patience, privacy and respect, whatever the circumstances of their death.
Within reach
Care should not depend on what a family can spend. We offer a full range of choices, from the simplest to the most complete, and we are mindful of your budget at every step.
Transparent
We will show you what each choice costs before you decide anything. Our price lists are available on request at every home, and there are no surprises afterwards.
Traditional funeral
A service in the chapel, a place of worship or somewhere that mattered to them, with visitation beforehand and burial or cremation after. We look after every detail so the family can be present.
- Visitation and viewing
- Chapel, church or graveside service
- Burial or cremation
- Procession and pallbearers
Cremation
Cremation can be as simple or as full as a family wishes — with a service before, a gathering after, or neither. Several of our homes have their own crematorium, so your family member stays in our care throughout.
- Simple cremation
- Cremation with a service
- On-site crematoriums
- Urns, keepsakes and scattering guidance
Memorial and celebration of life
A gathering that centres on the person rather than the ceremony. Their music, their photographs, the stories people tell in the kitchen — we help shape a service that sounds like them.
- Any venue, any faith or none
- Tribute videos and photo displays
- Receptions and catering
- Live-streaming for family far away
Planning ahead
Recording your wishes now, and paying for them at today's prices, spares your family both decisions and cost later. It begins with one unhurried conversation.
- Prices guaranteed for as long as you live
- No out-of-pocket expense for your family
- Transferable anywhere in Canada
- Wishes recorded and kept on file
After-care and grief support
Our care does not end at the graveside. We help with the paperwork that follows a death, point families toward the benefits they are owed, and keep the door open for as long as it is needed.
- Estate and government paperwork
- CPP, veterans and other benefit guidance
- Grief support and referrals
- Anniversary and remembrance events
We are available 24/7, 365 days a year.
When someone dies, call your nearest home at any hour. We will begin the process of bringing them into our care right away, and we will explain each step as we go.
