Embalming and preparation of the body: Prepare the body for viewing, which may involve embalming, dressing, and cosmetology.
Plan the service: Work with the Desjardins Funeral Chapel & Cremation 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.
Transportation: Arrange for the transportation of the body to the funeral home, Winnipeg, Manitoba cemetery, or other final resting place.
Customized caskets or urns: Customized caskets or urns that reflect the interests or personality of the deceased may be a service Desjardins Funeral Chapel & Cremation Services offers. For example, a casket might be painted with a sports team logo, or an urn might be shaped like a musical instrument.
Make arrangements: Meet with the Desjardins Funeral Chapel & Cremation 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.
