Hayward's Funeral Services
Plan the service: Work with the Hayward's Funeral Services to plan the funeral service, including selecting readings, music, and speakers. Consider any special requests or traditions that the deceased may have wanted.
Memorial jewelry: Some funeral homes offer memorial jewelry that incorporates a small amount of a loved one's ashes or other mementos into a piece of jewelry that can be worn or kept as a keepsake.
Make arrangements: Meet with the Hayward's Funeral Services funeral director to make arrangements for the funeral, including selecting a date and time, choosing a casket or urn, and deciding on any special requests or religious ceremonies.
DNA preservation: Check with Hayward's Funeral Services about collecting and preserving a small sample of a deceased individual's DNA. This can be used for a range of purposes, including genealogy research, paternity testing, and forensic identification.
Embalming and preparation of the body: Prepare the body for viewing, which may involve embalming, dressing, and cosmetology.
Transportation: Arrange for the transportation of the body to the funeral home, Salt Spring Island, British Columbia cemetery, or other final resting place.
