About Us
About Us
At Steele Funeral Home we are pleased to offer a broad range of services intended to meet and surpass the expectations of the families we serve. Whether you choose a Traditional or Complete Funeral Package, Partial Service Package or one of our Cremation Packages, one of our Funeral Directors will help you through the entire process.
Our beautifully decorated century-old stone facility provides you with a comfortable and homey atmosphere while providing for your needs and that of your visiting guests. Whether you are in one of our large and spacious Visitation Rooms, in the attractive Foyer, in the large Funeral Chapel or the well appointed Coffee Lounge we are confident that our facilities will exceed your expectations.
We carry only top quality caskets from known and reputable manufacturers and maintain a large variety in our Casket Selection Room.
In early 2007, we constructed our new Steele Family Reception Centre. The reception centre is located across the parking lot from the Funeral Home, in a separate building. The separate location allows for a time of remembrance and refreshments without any distractions from other activities in the Funeral Home.
Our Cadillac vehicle fleet consisting of one sedan, three funeral coaches, four limousines and two support vans will eliminate the worries of transportation before, during and after the funeral service.
Although there are many decisions you may have to make, we assure you that we will guide you through the entire process every step of the way. We promise to help you:
- Design the most fitting memorial or funeral service to honour their memory and pay tribute to their life achievements and experiences.
- Select the most appropriate products, including a casket, burial vault, cremation urn, cemetery or mausoleum, to fit your budget and suit your needs and desires.
