Ridge Meadows Hospice Society - Founded in 1980 by Edna Trethewey, a former public health nurse, the Ridge Meadows Hospice Society provides help for dying patients and their families in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. They recognize that constant, long term care of a palliative patient is extremely emotional and physically exhausting for the home caregiver. They offer respite for caregivers and a support system for families during the grieving period.
British Columbia Bereavement Helpline - The BC Bereavement Helpline assists the bereaved and their caregivers in coping and managing grief and loss. Your call will be answered by caring volunteers who are familiar with over 300 grief support groups and organizations in the province. Maple Ridge Funeral Chapel is proud to support the BCBH as Platinum Members.
British Columbia Funeral Association - Members of the BC Funeral Association offer comfort and guidance at a time of loss to help family and friends find a path to closure. Member firms are dedicated to the belief that every ending should spark a new beginning, and that funeral service professionals play an important roll in turning present grief into acceptance and peace of mind. Members combine the comfort of familiar end-of-life traditions with new and more personal ways to celebrate the life of a loved one. Most of all, members are partners in preparing a ceremony that writes the perfect ending to the final chapter in your loved one's story. Maple Ridge Funeral Chapel's owner, Dan Baxter is active on the Board of Directors serving with the Apprenticeship and Education Committee.
Stewart Monumental Works - Since 1896, BC's oldest and largest headstone manufacturing company has been supplying granite memorials to funeral homes and cemeteries throughout BC.
Parting Stone - Offers families who choose cremation an alternative to conventional ash. Their service solidifies the remains into a form that resembles a collection of smooth stones, called solidified cremated remains. Like regular stones, solidified remains are similar to ceramic and will not dissolve in water. The stones are perfect for memorial gardens or scattering.
Eternity's Touch - Since 2009, Eternity's Touch has produced over 100,000 one-of-a-kind pieces commemorating memories that last forever by capturing the uniqueness of a fingerprint and engraving it on jewelry and other memorial items.
SecuriGene - SecuriGene is proud to be an industry leader in DNA preservation and testing services with the latest technology and state-of-the-art facilities. DNA is the pure essence of who we are, and it is lost forever after cremation or burial. Preserving DNA ensures that a part of them stays with you forever and not only allows you to preserve the entire unique genetic “blueprint” of your loved one, but also to use the DNA any time in the future for genetic testing.
Consumer Protection BC - Consumer Protection BC regulates funeral providers and a variety of other businesses in the province. Their purpose is to license and inspect regulated businesses, respond to consumer inquiries, investigate alleged violations of consumer protection laws, and educate consumers about their rights and responsibilities.
