Our Chilliwack funeral home

Reception room at Henderson's Funeral Homes & CrematoriumOver the years, Henderson's Funeral Homes & Crematorium has evolved to respond to the changing needs of the community. The chapel seats up to 190 guests, with an overflow area able to accommodate an additional 50 guests. To enhance the capacity of the building, there is also closed-circuit TV so friends and family who are unable to travel to the facility can be part of the service. All areas of the funeral home are conveniently located on the ground floor and are well-equipped to accommodate handicapped visitors.

The reception area is a flexible space and can be used at your discretion to suit your needs: for gatherings following a service or for a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere in place of a formal service.

Our funeral services

Henderson's Funeral Homes & Crematorium offers a variety of options for families to honour their loved ones, including funeral services, burial, cremation and related products and services. All options are carefully presented, explained and reviewed to ensure that families make an informed, personal decision that meets their needs and desires. We also offer a full range of cemetery memorialization and personalization options.

Cremation services

We specialize in cremation services that honor loved ones in personalized ways, and families love our transparent pricing. With expertise in scattering ashes and a friendly team who pays attention to every detail, we provide service that is second to none.

More and more people are choosing cremation over traditional burial, but most aren’t familiar with the many options:

  • a cremation without a funeral or memorial service of any kind.
  • a funeral with your loved one present, followed by cremation.
  • a cremation followed by a scattering, cemetery memorialization or celebration of life—or all three.

For those who wish for a more momentous memorial, Neptune Memorial Reef is an underwater cremation garden off the coast of Florida. A Celestis Memorial Spaceflight takes ashes into space for a little while or forever.

There are many options for cremation—and they're not all equal. Here's what you can expect when you choose us for your loved one's cremation:

  • Custody of care guaranteed. Our custody-of-care program helps safeguard the identification of your loved one from the time we bring them into our care until the time we return them to your family. We check, cross-check and check again, every step of the way.
  • Exclusive custody of your loved one. We operate a private, on-site crematory and work with trusted partners. Once your loved one is in our custody or that of a trusted partner, they’re in our care until they’re returned to your family.
  • Licensed, certified, conscientious staff. All Dignity Memorial crematory operators are licensed and certified by Cremation Association of North America, or CANA. Only one person at a time is cremated, and the cremation chamber is thoroughly cleaned before the next person is cremated.

Ratings & Reviews

Verified Customer Reviews

Since 2005, many of our customers have taken the time to tell us how we did each year via our Voice of the Customer program. Our star ratings and comments from families come directly from these surveys.

"It's a hard enough road even after a long term illness to lose a parent, the last blood relative, a loved one. Put 3000 miles between their passing and you…even more difficult. Lindsey was so comforting and patient. It takes a special type of person to deal with these types of situations. I cannot say enough about how sensitive she was…it made me

find inner peace knowing my beautiful mom was not 'in the freezer heading for the toaster' having been in a First Responders' environment previously. We all can be a little insensitive when it's not 'us'"

"Bonnie was amazing in the Chilliwack location. She remembered my dad as she arranged his cremation services a year and a half ago during covid. Was so lovely to have a familiar face help me through the preparations of my mom's cremation so soon after. Her level of caring is exceptional."
