To the families who are grieving

As the year comes to a close, we recognize that this season can feel very different for each of us. For some, it brings celebration, new beginnings, and moments shared with loved ones. For others, it may be a time marked by quiet reflection, longing, and the deep ache of absence.

We know that entering a new year without someone we love can feel uncertain — even overwhelming. The start of another chapter can bring joy and pain in the very same breath. Whether your loss is recent or years have passed, grief has no calendar, and love has no end.

Please know that you are not alone. We hold in our hearts all families who are remembering someone dear this season. May you find moments of peace, comfort in your memories, and hope — even small, gentle hope — as the days ahead unfold.

From our family to yours, we wish you compassion, strength, and a path forward lit by the love that forever remains.

With care,
Creech’s Lakeland Funeral Home

We would like to introduce a new member to our team and community, Riley Zajic. Riley is a licensed Funeral Director and apprentice embalmer.
Riley grew up on a farm near Edgerton Alberta with her parents, two sisters, and her paternal grandparents. Learning hard work on the farm as well as giving back to the community. She helped maintain the Zajic Corn Maze, which donates to the Wainwright Food Bank, as well as the Wainwright & District Handivan Society every year. Her love for the community stems from growing up on sports teams, including hockey, softball, volleyball, track and cross country.
After losing her grandfather, Riley decided she wanted to help families through grief and provide them with solace, just like the people who helped her family. She has been in the funeral industry since she was 16 years old, working at Creech’s Funeral Home Wainwright for 2 years before moving to Edmonton where she completed her Diploma of Funeral service through Mount Royal University in Calgary. She worked in Edmonton, gaining experience and knowledge before deciding to move closer to her family and friends, settling in Lloydminster. She is now 21 and plans to dedicate her time to supporting and guiding families for as long as she can.
