Show me the manner in which a nation cares for its dead, and I will measure with mathematical exactness, the tender mercies of its people, their respect for the laws of the land, and their loyalty to high ideals.
William Ewart Gladstone (1809 - 1898)
Services we provide
Since time immemorial, humankind has both honoured and mourned their deceased through various rituals based on individual needs, physical necessities, cultural customs and religious beliefs... referred to today as "Funerals". Today, as ever in history, every "Funeral" is unique, individually customized to both honour and show respect for a life lived and to provide emotional needs and support for the mourning. Whatever form a Funeral takes or may be perceived to be - whether very traditional, partly traditional or simple burial/cremation without a previous service - it has to be remembered that all "Funerals" are for the living and are based on respect for the deceased.
To simplify, (realizing all can be made unique with personal changes) the following are our definitions of services we offer:
Traditional Services
Whether you choose burial or cremation, a funeral service is an important part of honoring your loved one and starting the healing process. We offer service options that are meaningful and affordable.
Cremation Services
We offer several service options for families that choose cremation which can include a full service funeral, a memorial service, or something more private, as well as permanent resting place options for the cremated remains.
Personalization
Our funeral directors are experts in helping to create meaningful services that are unique and honor your loved one in ways that are special and meaningful. We offer several ways to personalize a service from tribute videos to keepsakes, to live streaming for family and friends that cannot attend in person.
