Honouring Life, Centred on Your Family’s Wishes

"Our mum passed recently and she had made arrangements with Alternative Funeral and Cremation services for her burial. As soon as the initial call was made until the last arrangements were over, Kristie and Elizabeth were there every step of the way. Their attention to all the details and their kind regard for our mum and family was evident. I would recommend Alternative Services to all my family and friends. Thank you Kristi for your kindness and professional handling of..."

"Annika was very helpful and even set up a meeting at my home to complete paperwork after our Mom passed away. I was thankful for her kindness and assistance in a time when I was mostly focussed on grieving."

"The staff at Alternatives could not have been more helpful in guiding us through the process after our father’s passing. They were patient, compassionate and effective in helping us navigate the myriad of details involved. We didn’t know what we didn’t know, and Juliana and Martin helped us every step of the way. We will be forever grateful."

"Alternatives was a pleasure to work with during a difficult time. Jesus and Elizabeth were particularly kind and compassionate.   I always received quick responses to my questions and they kept well within their promised time schedules.  Results were professionally presented and their attention to detail was perfect."

"I was blessed to be in the exceptional care and professionalism shown by Funeral Director Gaymond Wong of Alternatives Funeral & Cremation Services during our difficult time. Their genuine show of compassion, attention to details and dedication brought so much comfort to my family making a challenging moment a little easier to bear. My heartfelt gratitude for your outstanding service"

"Alternatives Funeral and Cremation Serrvices were attentive to the practical matters that we had to navigate. Martin couldn't have been more supportive, respectful and caring, from the beginning to the last Goood-byes. We also appreciated you you reaching out several days after the service to offer any furtheer support we may need We will not forget your kindness and patience you showed in our time of grieving. Bless you and your staff for taking care of our beloved son. From..."

"The Alternative Funeral & Cremation Services for my Dad was exceptional. From the night of his death, to them coming out to go over all the paper work to my dad's ashes being delivered to my house. It was all done with such kindness and efficiency. Thank you Elizabeth and Lisa for your care and helping me during this stressful time."

"Alternatives have been a pleasure to work with in a time of high stress and emotion. They were kind and calm in all their correspondence. Their website is straight forward, the process other than that was seamless and they are so professional and caring. Only call out is that their window for delivering the remains (if having done cremation) is a very small specific window so if you are a child of a parent and working it’s difficult to navigate."

"Everyone here that worked with my family - Marivic, Annika, Elizabeth, and others behind the scenes - was so professional, knowledgeable, helpful and caring. Our meeting at Tim Horton’s with Annika (not the ideal place but we needed to have it here and made it work) to discuss the arrangements my mom had made was so informative, and final plans concerning the funeral mass and inurnment were made quickly with little waffling. Even though we were inundated with a lot..."

"It has been a couple of months since my mother passed and I finally have a moment of calm to write this review. I was so impressed with Alternatives Funeral & Cremation Services. Right from the very first contact with them, they have been incredibly kind and helpful. They were quick to respond, even multiple times over the weekend to patiently help me through the process and answer my questions. Every staff member we encountered was so gentle and attentive..."
