When a death occurs away from home, we bring your loved one back to their community.

Our Process of Care

1

Receiving your loved one into our care

We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Whatever the hour, we arrange the transfer of your loved one into our care and complete the documentation that goes with it.

2

Meeting with your Funeral Director

We set an arrangement time that works best for your family, then guide you through each decision and contact the church, clergy, musicians, hall, caterer and cemetery on your behalf.

3

Preparation for travel

If your loved one is transported across a provincial boundary, embalming is required by law. We prepare them with care and complete the documentation the journey needs.

4

Registration and documentation

We register the death with Vital Statistics, obtain the death certificate and permits, notify the Canada Pension Plan and help you apply for the CPP Death Benefit and any Survivorship Benefit.

We are here for you, 24/7

When you need us, we'll be there to guide you through every step with compassion and expertise.
