Burquitlam Funeral Home

Burquitlam Funeral Home When a funeral goes smoothly, it is not by accident or good luck, but because no detail has been overlooked.

Everything possible is done to make certain each funeral meets the demanding standards that have singled out Burquitlam Funeral Home since 1964 as the Family Funeral Home of choice for hundreds of families. Every team member has been highly schooled in every aspect of old-fashioned service with excellence. Well before the family and friends arrive for the service, the director meets with his or her team and assigns their responsibilities. Every one from the pianist, who can play a wide selection of music from popular tunes to more traditional hymns and familiar classics, to the person greeting the friends and relatives, directing them to the location of the service, is given a list with their assigned duties.

We've seen over and over in this profession that grief is a unique journey for every individual. Right now, we are seeing 'collective grief' as we grieve together across the world,. However, it's best to remember that we still all experience grief in unique ways. Grief is both something that can bring people together as a common experience, but also can be isolating and lonely. This is a quote worth sharing by Becky Benson, "The problem with comparing grief is that by assigning our personal value system to someone else’s pain, we may undermine the validity of their grief."
