today’s costs for your family.

What we offer
Plan on your own time, wherever you're comfortable.
Pre-planning means your family isn’t left guessing during one of the hardest moments of their lives.
We meet families wherever they're most comfortable — at our Chatham, Ridgetown, or Blenheim locations, or right at your own kitchen table. There’s no obligation and no pressure; it’s simply a conversation about what you want. You can choose to simply document your wishes, or go a step further and prepay, with funds held in trust as required under Ontario law.
Meet at any of our three locations, or we'll come to you

How pre-planning works
Choose where to meet
We'll meet at whichever McKinlay location is closest to you, or come to your home if that's more comfortable.
Talk through your wishes
We walk through your options for service, cremation or burial, and whether prepaying is right for you. Prepaid funds are held in trust under Ontario law and lock in today's prices.
