Complete Funeral Package With Wooden Casket ($6,295 plus GST)

Wood Casket and Full Service for $6,295

Complete Funeral Service Package

This package was created for families who are wanting a dignified, respectful casket and service, without a huge price tag. When comparing the cost of funerals from Choice Memorial Cremation & Funeral Services with traditional funeral homes, you will likely notice a substantial difference in the price. We are able to keep the cost of our funerals low by holding affordable funeral services for up to 70 people in our funeral home, or using existing facilities in our city to hold the service. If you have a church home, you already have a beautiful venue to hold the service. If you do not have a church home, and are expecting a larger service, we will find the perfect venue for you.

$6,295 plus GST (includes the following):

 

  • Transfer of deceased within Calgary (no extra charges for evening or weekend transfers, or transfers requiring two people).
