Funeral Home in London

Personalized Tributes
Celebrate a Life Well Lived

A funeral is a timeless tradition that has given families a chance to say goodbye.  It is a place where a special life can be honoured, their values and accomplishments can be celebrated, and a place where family can begin to heal.  There is so much more a funeral provides than simply a eulogy and biblical quotes; it is a way to commemorate a life and all those it touched. 

Say More Than Just Goodbye

For some families, a traditional funeral may provide the most comfort. However, we invite you to be as original as you want.  Our specialists will work creatively and resourcefully to ensure your memorial is custom tailored to your needs.

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

Memorial  Funeral Home features a beautifully appointed chapels that seats 200. But you don’t have to plan a conventional, clergy-led service. Today, the opportunity to honour your loved one reaches far beyond the classic readings and a eulogy.  Whether it’s showcasing dad’s prized motorcycle collection or serving cookies baked from grandmother’s famous recipe, discuss your ideas with us.  The possibilities are endless.

As you personalize the funeral, some things to consider include:

  • Attributes or passions of the person who died that you want to be sure to honour
  • Memories to share
  • Person to lead the ceremony
  • Others who might want to speak or share memories
  • Music ideas for the visitation and ceremony
  • Readings for the ceremony

After the funeral, a reception is a time for family and friends to reflect, laugh, and cry together over refreshments or a meal. We offer two large reception rooms that open onto airy patios, and are also equipped with full kitchen facilities. 

Online Tributes

Thanks to the Internet, being able to honour your loved one from anywhere has become easier. Our exclusive online memorial site, Sharing Memories, is available free of charge. It’s a wonderful place to share photos, messages or videos about your loved one. The profile will always be accessible, letting friends and family visit and reminisce whenever they like.
