Services
Funerals are for the living. They help people honour the person they’ve lost and help those remaining cope with life after loss.
At Kettle Valley Memorial Services our goal is to help families make informed decisions. We believe in transparent choices and pricing. We offer customized ceremonies, for example, a Memorial / Celebration of Life in a Rose Garden; or, a Traditional Funeral Service in a church setting. We can arrange for cremation and dispositon of the ashes to a columbarium; or, deliver them to you in an urn of your choice. We can also arrange to transfer the deceased world wide.
