We provide more than you'd expect and include all of the following...

  • Transfer from a Winnipeg hospital is included.

    • deaths occurring in personal care homes, personal residences or hospitals without temperature controlled holding facilities requires immediate response times and requires a team be on standby 24 hours per day, 365 days per year. This demand requires additional staff, vehicles, services, personal protective equipment, and adds to our own costs. For this reason, transfers meeting this criteria add $195. This fee is only added when necessary.

  • Arrangement session in our planning centre on St. Mary Avenue included.

  • Registration of death with the Province of Manitoba included.

  • Professionally prepared and completed CPP Death Benefit and Survivor's Benefit Applications included.

  • Free Press Obituary Placement - we handle editing, formatting and placement. This often reduces costs considerably. The Free Press charges based on the length, and we do not markup the Free Press' standard publication fees.

  • Cremation urns are sold (optionally) on a non-profit basis, starting at less than $100. Families are encouraged to provide their own or purchase elsewhere if desired.

What might add to costs?

Winnipeg Free Press Obituary

~based on length

NO MARKUP SERVICE

Obituaries in the Winnipeg Free Press 100% optional and are priced based on length. You'll pay no more that what you would pay handling things yourself.

Many of our clients will opt to publish a short version in the Winnipeg Free Press and include a few lines pointing the reader to the longer, free version on our website. This can drastically reduce overall costs of publishing an obituary.

Land Titles Death Certificate

$30 - no tax

AT COST - NON-PROFIT

A death certificate from the Province of Manitoba may be needed to handle land titles changes after death. These certificates are $30 but not everyone owns property, so not everyone needs one.

One certificate is needed for each province in which property is owned.

Certificates can be acquired on a rush basis for $65. Payable to the Minister of Finance. No taxes are added.

CHARGED ONLY WHEN NEEDED

To reduce cost to our clients, we engage a transfer service when a death occurs at home or in a Nursing Home or at a Private Residence. The deceased is moved to a temperature controlled, private holding facility until the death is registered and the family has an opportunity to authorize services.

This services is available 24 hours per day 365 days/year. All holiday's included.
