We Believe...
- Every person is unique, and their life and death deserves dignity and respect. We listen to people's needs, and then help them heal through an experience that is modestly priced, thoughtful, and personal.
- People should feel good about carefully spending money on final expenses; your final acts of caring for a loved one can be meaningful and appropriate while still remaining affordable.
- We help create healthy communities through our work with the deceased and their families. We do this by providing education, partnering with other community groups, and forging long term relationships between our care team and the people who live here in NW Washington.
What Makes Us Different
We are the community's most affordable funeral home; for 27 years we've provided alternatives to expensive cremations and burials that are creative, compassionate, and caring. We began in 1983 as Whatcom Cremation Society and have always had a lowest cremation price guarantee. Our tradition of simplicity and affordability continues today as Whatcom Cremation & Funeral.

We know how to create a valuable memorial experience for both cremation and burial. Our professional services are priced with flexibility, allowing you to choose just what you need from us without costly add-ons. This flexibility, combined with our low-overhead operations and direct-to-crematory care mean streamlined services at Whatcom County's lowest prices...an inexpensive funeral home with our promise of integrity, personalization, and thoughtfulness.
Pricing - Our Low Price Guarantee
We will match any published price for a local company doing direct cremation in Whatcom County and honor any pre-paid funeral plan for basic cremation or burial.
