COVID-19 STATEMENT by HENRY WALSER
WHAT ARE WE DOING TO KEEP YOU AND OUR EMPLOYEES SAFE?
The health and safety of our guests and employees are our top priorities.
At this time, Henry Walser Funeral Home will operate normally and welcome the public for services. We want to assure you that the Henry Walser Team is taking proactive measures to help prevent the spread of any potential illness. We are closely monitoring the Federal and Provincial health authorities, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention and World Health Organization’s statements regarding the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) cases and following guidelines from these agencies and the local health departments.
It is mandated that gatherings of more than 10 people be postponed.
At this point there has been no direction from any source that funeral services, visitations or celebrations of life should be cancelled.
We will continue to clean and disinfect our facilities before and after each service with particular attention paid to high touch items.
Proper and frequent hand washing is vital to help combat the spread of viruses.
We have placed the hand sanitizer in a location that is more visible as you enter the funeral home.
Employees who exhibit cold or flu-like symptoms have been instructed to stay home from work.
In an effort to minimize direct contact, we ask that you consider avoiding shaking hands or physical contact with the members of the family you are here to visit.
We request that guests who are experiencing any cold or flu-like symptoms including fever, cough and shortness of breath or have been in contact with or have recently traveled to any of the affected countries refrain from visiting Henry Walser Funeral Home at this time.
All funeral and/or cremation arrangements may be made over the phone if necessary.
Live streaming is available to those who, for whatever reason, can not attend the service. Subject to the capacity of our internet provide.
We highly recommend you rely on trusted and respected health services for information on the virus.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me directly at 519-749-8467.
Sincerely,
Henry Walser
Owner
Henry Walser Funeral Home
