Every life is unique, and we believe every funeral, memorial service, or celebration of life should reflect the person being remembered and the family left behind.
For some families, that means a traditional visitation followed by a Catholic Funeral Mass or a service rooted deeply in faith and tradition. For others, it may mean gathering around the passions, hobbies, relationships, and experiences that helped define a life.
At Haskett Funeral Homes, we strongly believe there is no such thing as a “one-size-fits-all” funeral service.
Over the years, we have helped families create tributes that have included everything from classic cars, tractors, motorcycles, snowmobiles, and canoes to baking displays, woodworking projects, family photo collections, memory tables, and personalized video tributes. Sometimes the most meaningful touches are found in the simplest details — the stories shared, the music played, or the familiar items that instantly remind family and friends of someone they love.
Our goal is always the same: to help create something authentic, personal, and appropriate for the individual being honoured.
Whether services are held in one of our funeral homes, a church, a community hall, outdoors, or another meaningful location, our team is equipped to help bring those ideas together. We have made significant investments in professional audio, video, livestreaming, and mobile technology so we can provide high-quality experiences both within our facilities and on the road throughout the communities we serve.
We also recognize that many families are looking for guidance in telling their loved one’s story. Haskett Funeral Homes is proud to have Certified Funeral Celebrants on staff who work closely with families to help create thoughtful, personalized services that reflect a life lived.
Families are encouraged to participate as much or as little as they wish. Whether through readings, music, displays, tributes, videos, or shared memories, we believe the most meaningful services are the ones that feel genuine and personal — not scripted or cookie cutter.
