We provide complimentary use of our funeral home, including a Room of Repose, private off-street parking, and comfortable seating in the lobby and reception areas.

At Thompson’s Funeral Directors, we always ensure personal supervision to provide compassionate and professional care for every family we serve.
Welcoming Funeral Home for All Services
As part of our comprehensive funeral services, we offer a cross-community, non-denominational funeral home. We welcome bereaved families to hold religious or civil services with their own celebrants, providing a flexible and accommodating space for any type of service.
With many families choosing not to use a church for evening reception prayers, our funeral home is an ideal location for family and friends to gather, with or without prayers. This setting allows for a relaxed atmosphere where relatives and friends can meet and offer their condolences. Contact us today to learn more about our welcoming and versatile funeral home.

We are committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for all families. Our funeral home is fully accessible, ensuring that everyone, regardless of mobility, can comfortably attend services and visitations. We have taken care to incorporate features such as ramps, wide doorways, and accessible restrooms to accommodate those with disabilities. This dedication to accessibility allows all guests to gather and honour their loved ones without any barriers, ensuring a respectful and dignified experience for everyone.
