Prices and Services

I saw your ad in the Province and thought I should respond. My wife's parents put us on to you many years ago. Since then they have both passed as well as my parents. They were all members. Your help was nothing short of excellent.

The Memorial Society has negotiated lower, maximum prices for its members with selected funeral services providers.

The pricing for paperwork and transfer of body as well as preparation is based on seven typical packages. Additional services are listed for each provider as well. The purpose of providing merchandise options is to protect members from possible up-selling. Members are free to ask the funeral providers for a look at their other merchandise. The contract is not affected if you choose non-Society merchandise.

  • When a death occurs the first step is to arrange to have the body transferred from the place of death to a designated funeral provider. Your first call to the Memorial Society of British Columbia will get you started in the right direction.
  • A funeral provider will take some information about the deceased from you. Next, the provider will do all the paper work and secure all permits to transfer the deceased from the place of death to the funeral home.
  • If you already haven't done so, then you will meet with a licensed funeral director to make arrangements for the disposition of the body and related details.

All Memorial Society of British Columbia designated funeral providers are owned and operated by Canadian families. None are franchises or owned by publicly traded companies. You are free to use any of them, but the closest one will probably be more convenient.

Preferred pricing for members is offered at all funeral homes. They may vary within service areas. You are free to choose the funeral provider of your choice.

ADVISORY: Only those funeral providers listed on this website have any relationship with the Memorial Society. Beware of misleading or outright fraudulent claims by pretenders.
