Services
At Bakerview Crematorium & Celebration Centre we offer burial, cremation, memorial and celebration of life services that are sensitive to the cultural needs of the families of Mission, Surrey and neighbouring communities.
We also have the ability to transfer the deceased worldwide.
Traditional Burial or Cremation
A “Traditional Burial or Cremation Service” is structured around these elements:
- Transfer deceased from the place of death to the funeral home for preparation
- Time is set aside to view open or closed casket, usually the evening before or day of the service
- A public or private ceremony in the venue of choice is followed by burial or cremation and a reception
Memorial or Celebration of Life
The casket is usually not present, but the service is structured around these elements:
- Transfer of the deceased from the place of death to the funeral home for preparation
- Viewing for family, if the family so wishes
- A public/private ceremony in the venue of one’s choice typically followed by a reception
- Committal Service for burial takes place in the cemetery of choice
Graveside Service or Simple Disposition
No formal service that the funeral home is involved with, but does include these elements:
- Transfer of deceased from the place of death to the funeral home
- Viewing for family may be arranged if the family so desires
- Immediate burial/cremation takes place in a cemetery
Nearly everyone experiences the death of a close family member or friend. It is a time of decision making, often in the midst of deep sorrow and grief. Whether or not it is fully appreciated, the death of a loved one usually sets into motion a number of social, religious and psychological forces. But, these difficult events have a way of bringing family and friends together to share memories and offer each other strength and support.
