Alternatives Funeral & Cremation Services

Very friendly, compassionate and understanding. Pricing was better than expected, which during these times, is always welcome. Crissinda was especially a pleasure to deal with. She really listened and worked with us, and within our budget. I never once felt pressured to purchase things we weren't needing and it was refreshing to be treated like a person and not a sale. The service was flawless, and it was nice not having to take care of anything. Just 5-Star service all around! You 100% will get better service and way more using Alernative Funeral Services.

When my dad passed away 5 years ago, we called McInnis & Holloway to ask about booking a meeting. (We wound up going through Pierson's instead.) McInnis & Holloway assumed we would be booking with them, even though no meeting ever happened, and called the hospital and literally took our dad's body to their location. You can imagine how we felt when the Pierson's director told us they couldn't find our dad's body.

Piersons was very overpriced as well, and we were definitely pressured into the bigger and better. Also, we specifically asked that they not lower the casket at the service, but to do so after we left. They started to lower the casket and I actually had to yell out to stop.

Alternative funeral services was professional and respectful in my time of need. They did not try to upsell anything, rather presented various options and allowed me to choose. I am very happy with their service. Thank you Lorne and Celia for your service.

Outstanding service! I refer everyone to them. They have handled services for myself, family and friends. Thanks for making the process seamless and comforting. You make a big difference Diann!

I was asked to arrange the funeral on behalf of the parents who's baby had passed away suddenly. So easy and straight forward. You can hear the sincerity, love and the warmth even on the phone.

Thank you for your help and I will not even hesitate to call you again should we require these services again.

We had a wonderful experience dealing with Alternative Funeral and Cremation Services. After our family member passed away it was an overwhelming time for all of us and they were very helpful with their services.
We loved that they came to our home to fill out all the paperwork prior to the cremation of our loved one. This model made the process very convenient during this difficult time and we really appreciated this aspect of their service. They were also able to return the ashes back to our home and they were very accommodating to our needs.
They were able to make our Memorial cards, did a wonderful job, and provided great suggestions. They were timely with all their services and organized.
Diane and Cory were both very professional and took time to answer all the questions that my family and I had.
The price of the cremation was very reasonable comparing to other funeral services. This decreased some financial stress and burden on us during this time.
I would recommend their services to anyone who recently experiences a loss in their life. Thank you for everything.
