    I was saddened to hear of Betty’s recent passing. Betty and Stan were good friends and neighbours of my parents, Eric and Hilda for many years on Jones Road. As a family, we shared many stories And laughs “over the fence”. Our condolences to Stan,Karel, Donna And their families during this sad time.

    Dear Stan,
    Don’t know if you remember me, but I want to extend my condolences with the passing of your dear wife.
    Many years ago (about 56 yrs) I helped my Dad (RR’s) in Richmond P.O. and at that time you advised me
    to apply for a job at the PO and also to Canada Customs. I did exactly that. After 7 yrs at Customs, I started working for a Customs Broker until I retired 12 yrs ago. My parents lived in Kelowna for about 4 yrs where Dad died (1974). Mom moved to Abbotsford (where we live) until she died in 2001, aged a month short of 95 yrs.
    In a weeks time, we will be celebrating (the Lord willing) our 50th anniversary.
    I always remember your kindness and advice about work as at the time I graduated from H.S. I didn’t have an idea what I wanted to do.
    Thanks for that, and we wish you the best as you move ahead in life.
    Sincerely,
    Matt Kwantes

Testimonials

They took care of me like family.

Judith Szabo

Everything was so organized and pertinent to what we needed. Everyone we met was kind, courteous and very helpful during our emotional and challenging time. Thank you so much.

Heather Mayne

They were so prompt on answering any questions and changing things. They were prepared and respected any religious decisions. The process was so seamless and made easy in such a high stress situation.

Tanya Kohar

In the past 2 years Springfield has helped us through the death of my Mother and my Father. Their response and help allowed us to focus on the remaining family rather than worrying about details of the funeral and all the notifications that are required upon a death.

Terry Eldridge

The atmosphere has been nothing but professional during times of grief.  After the passing of my mother, the staff coached me on the next steps and looked after filling in all the government forms that I needed to sign, which took a huge burden off my mind at the time.

Donald McClure

Everyone was so helpful and kind.  There was no pressure.  They provided exactly what we needed.

Diane Greenwood

From the time I called to the completion of all the services, I received compassionate, attentive and professional care.  There was a sense of caring from each staff member.  I was turning over my Mom to their care and I felt very comfortable with everyone.  I felt heard and never felt pushed into any decision.

Katherine Lewis

I have always found the team at Springfield Funeral Home to be VERY caring, kind, considerate and helpful.  I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who asks which funeral home would I suggest they use.  No other funeral home I have dealt with even comes close to Springfield Funeral Home.

Ethna Tutt

Right at the onset, I was made very comfortable, there was no pressure.  I was made to feel as if I was the only one they had to serve.

Frances Baum

Everything that was arranged for us was perfect.  Our loved one, husband, father, brother was treated with respect.  Thank you for making this difficult time a little more acceptable via your staff’s obvious caring and respect.
