Caskets
Caskets are for burial and cremation. The caskets are organized by material, and our selection and pricing is varied enough to meet the needs of any family. From simple cloth and biodegradable eco-friendly materials, to solid hardwood and metal, there is a casket for every need. For families wanting something a little more substantial for cremation, please note you can cremate any of our caskets (except metal). If you require a viewing, a burial, or a service with the deceased present, please review this section carefully and contact us with any questions you may have. When you meet with one of our Funeral Directors, we will also bring full colour large high-quality professionally taken photos of each casket for you to see in person.
Infant and children’s caskets are also available. Please contact us for more information.
Cremation containers are for cremation only. The purpose of a cremation container is to accommodate the deceased in a dignified manner allowing for placement in the cremation chamber. The container is cremated with the deceased and is consumed in the process. Some families choose to view prior to cremation and the cremation container is used for that purpose as well. The simplest container available is made from cardboard and others are made from various woods. All containers except for the cardboard container have a lined interior and come with a pillow.
