AFTER THE FUNERAL FAQs

What paperwork needs to be filed after the funeral?

Once you have obtained a copy of the Death Certificate from your funeral home, you’ll need to visit an Alberta Registry to register the death. There are many other personal needs that need to be attended to, but only the registration of death is legally required.

For a checklist of other items you’ll need to address, please ask your Funeral Director.

When you preplan your funeral, you can ensure that your final arrangements are set to your personal preferences. You can also save your family from having to make decisions during a difficult time. If you choose to also prepay for your arrangements, you will pay at today’s pricing and avoid the rising costs of inflation.

How can I memorialize my loved one?

Memorialization is offered in many forms including memorial jewelry, customized urns and ornaments. You may also choose to plant a tree, donate in their name or many other options. Our Funeral Services team can offer suggestions based on your wishes.

There are many support groups for those who are grieving in Calgary and the surrounding area. There are also online resources available. Visit our Grief Support page for more information.

The facility is clean and the staff are very understanding. We had the pleasure of working with Jyoti and Mark during a time when we felt our world collapsed. They were supportive and treated our loved ones with respect.

This is a great place for peace of life services. The staff here is amazingly patient and helpful. They guided us through the entire process and were very accommodating with everything. Services are very well priced too. I recommend them very strongly to everyone dealing with the loss of a loved one. It still is very painful to say goodbye but with these people, you are in good hands.

A few weeks ago we lost a close family friend/brother figure. Upon arriving at the funeral home for the private viewing, my husband, sister in law and her husband were greeted by the new manager of the facility (who coincidentally also helped us with my father in laws funeral 2 1/2yrs ago). Very compassionate service and assistance. Beautiful and well maintained facility. Thank you, Chad.
