Funeral Home in Dartmouth

For thousands of years, people have been holding funeral services to formally say goodbye. A funeral fills several purposes. It is a tribute to honour a special life - an opportunity to celebrate the experiences, accomplishments, hobbies, heritage and history of a unique and irreplaceable personality. For many, a meaningful service is an important part of the healing process.  It also helps console the immediate family, the people who often feel the loss most deeply. A funeral service can be part of your final arrangements, whether burial or cremation is chosen.

Say More Than Just Goodbye

Traditional or contemporary, the funeral service can be tailored to your faith, taste and budget. Whether planning for yourself or a loved one, our professionals will help you design a memorial service as unique as the person being honoured.

We offer serene visitation rooms where you can receive friends and family in a soothing environment.  Traditionally this is done before the funeral service, giving others a chance to offer one-on-one condolences, love and support. 

Planning a Service and Reception

We feature a formal chapel which can seat 250  people. But you are not limited to classic, clergy-led services. We can help you plan a memorial that reflects an individual’s talents and interests, from cooking to painting, motorcycles to movies. The choices are endless.

Here are some things that can help make sure the service is personalized:

• Special interests, hobbies and characteristics you want to honour
• Reminiscences to share
• Close friends and relatives to invite
• A spiritual leader to conduct the service
• Those who may want to share a memory at the service
• Favourite music to play at the ceremony and/or visitation
• Favourite authors to read at the ceremony

After the funeral, you may want to host a reception for family and friends to gather for a meal or refreshments. Our all-on-one level, 17,000-square-foot funeral home, with a large outdoor patio overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and Lake Loon, provides a welcoming place to reminisce, share tears and even a few laughs.

Online Tributes

We proudly offer, free of charge, our exclusive memorial site Sharing Memories.  This is a unique and long lasting way to pay tribute to your loved one with videos, pictures, quotes and more.  These online profiles stay current, and are easily accessible to those who may not be able to attend the service, or who want to take a moment to reminisce after the fact. 

Helping You Cope with Grief

We understand the importance of support, and offer free AfterCare service to ensure you receive guidance and emotional counselling anytime you need it.  Our AfterCare professionals can also offer help with finalizing the estate. 

Planning Ahead

It can be difficult to make important decisions during a time of mourning. Pre-planning allows you to be certain your life will be commemorated as you see fit, while having the peace of mind of knowing your family won’t be left struggling financially during their grief.

We also offer exclusive pre-planning benefits, such as funeral coverage for children and grandchildren under 19, and being able to transfer your funeral plans to any of our locations across Canada.  Learn more about pre-planning your funeral and cemetery arrangements.
