Our Services
Whether you're dealing with a loss, anticipating one, or preparing for your own future, we’re here to help with compassionate and affordable services.
Someone Has Passed
Our deepest condolences. We’re so sorry to hear that your loved one has passed. We would be honoured to:
Send a caring professional to bring your loved one into our care
Assist you in completing the necessary forms
Deliver your loved one’s cremated remains along with the death certificate
Someone Will Soon Pass
It’s difficult to know how you’re going to respond when your loved one passes. Preparing for it beforehand is very wise.
Perhaps more importantly, government forms surrounding a passing require more information about your loved one’s life than you might expect. If your loved one can still communicate, their help will make filling out forms considerably easier.

Fill out as much as possible. We will securely retain your loved one’s information until they pass.
When your loved one passes, reach out.
I Want to Prepare for My Own Passing
In the future, Compassionate will allow you to make arrangements for your own passing. You will be able to make your wishes known and set aside money to ease the burden for your loved ones.
“And no one ever told me about the laziness of grief…. Not only writing but even reading a letter is too
much.”

FAQs
What is included in your cremation service?
Our standard cremation includes transportation, necessary paperwork, cremation, and return of the ashes, along with a death certificate.
Do I have to purchase an urn through you?
Not at all. We provide a temporary urn at no cost. During the checkout process, you’re welcome to choose a special urn if you wish.
Who can legally sign the cremation contract?
According to BC law, only the executor named in the will can authorize cremation (if there is no will, then the person closest in legal relation). Contact us to determine whether you are the authorized person to sign for the cremation, as per section 5 of the CIFSA.
Can I witness the cremation?
Yes. We offer a witnessed cremation option for those who wish to be present for an extra charge.
