Reducing Costs of Cremation in Kelowna

Springfield is a family owned funeral home and crematorium in Kelowna. People often ask us how they can reduce the costs of cremation services.

We tell people that the best way to control cremation costs in Kelowna is to pre-plan and pre-pay for the associated expenses. This allows you to freeze the cost of cremation at today’s prices so you never have to worry about inflation. And if you are a healthy individual in your 50’s or 60’s there is a good chance that costs of cremation will double or tripple by the time you need to use our services.

But cremation is usually followed by some service or ceremony to say goodbye. This increases the cost of cremation, so keeping the service simple and allowing family members and friends to help with food preparation, beverages, flowers and other items will help keep costs down.

There are many factors that make up the final cost of cremation service. We invite you to watch the video below that talks about different aspects that can make up the service – besides cremation – and how they contribute to costs.

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.
