Cremation

We look after every step before, during, and after the cremation process with care, respect, and professionalism.

Direct Cremation

At Thames Valley Cremation Services Inc., a simple cremation means exactly that. We look after every step before, during, and after the cremation process with care, respect, and professionalism. We are a licensed Transfer Service Operator (Class 1), providing direct  cremation services and coordinating everything needed for the cremation to take place. A licensed funeral director takes care of everything
and guides the family through each stage of the process.

We transfer the deceased into our care, complete all necessary documentation, and coordinate with the crematorium. Your loved one is  safely sheltered in our private, secure facility until the cremation takes place. The executor or next of kin signs all the required documents. We also handle all required paperwork, including death registration, burial permit, and coroner’s cremation certificate. We transfer your loved one to the crematorium, return the cremated remains to the executor or next of kin, and provide Proof of Death Certificates for estate and legal purposes.

Additional Included Services

Preparation of Deceased

No Charge

The preparation of a deceased individual for cremation involves several key steps. Identification and confirmation
of the deceased, jewelry and personal effects removal (if applicable), and the placement of the deceased into the
cremation container.


Transfer to the Crematorium

No Charge

The transfer of the deceased to the crematorium from our holding room involves a structured and respectful process
to ensure proper handling and compliance with regulations. This includes Preparation for the Transport, Handling and
Transport, and Arrival at the Crematorium. This process ensures the deceased is transferred respectfully, securely, and
in accordance with legal and ethical standards.


Temporary Container

No Charge

The temporary container is typically a simple, durable, and sealed plastic/cardboard box designed to securely hold
cremated remains until they are transferred to a permanent urn, scattered, or otherwise memorialized.


Unlimited Proof of Death Certificates

No Charge

This is for individuals requiring more than the initial 15 certificates provided as part of their service package. These
Proof of Death Certificates are essential for settling estates, canceling government IDs (e.g., health card, driver’s

Obituary for Website Only

No Charge

An online obituary is a digital tribute to the deceased, published on our website, rather than in a newspaper. It serves
to share the deceased’s life story, memorial details, and condolences with family and friends.
