The Dignity Network is one of the most important groups of the sort in Quebec, and not only in number, but also due to the size of the territory it covers. Actually, funeral homes that are members of the Network can be found in the following regions: Montreal, Quebec, Eastern Townships, Gaspésie and Saguenay/Lac St-Jean.
Dignity Network members offer safety sessions to schools, senior citizens' clubs and other organizations in relation to the Escape School and Smart & Safe Seniors programs. If you would like more information on how you can take advantage of one of these presentations, go to Our Activities section to view our calendar of events.
If you were asked if you wish to go to heaven, you would probably answer: "Yes, but not yet!" We all agree that speaking about death and thinking about our own is not easy. However, when a close relative dies, we realize how important it is to update our will and plan our funeral arrangements to protect our family and avoid them all of the trouble of taking decisions in such circumstances.

Prearrangements > Benefits
Several surveys made here and there throughout the world have revealed an increasing interest for prearrangement contracts allowing each individual or couple to:
- clearly specify their wishes;
- make sure that their wishes will be respected;
- pay the cost of their funeral at today's rates for services that will be rendered many years from now, and without any additional charge for loved ones;
- and finally, have absolute control on their funeral.
However, such an approach brings individuals to look back on their life and be conscious of the reality surrounding their own death. It means people need to reflect on the last impression they wish to leave their loved ones and to help them overcome their grief and start their mourning process more easily.
Experts say that this process can be as positive for us as for our loved ones. It helps us in freeing ourselves as well as others because when we are in mourning, we feel so much grief. We are very, very sensitive and seem to be living on edge. It is difficult to take several decisions and organize a funeral when asking ourselves if the person would like this or that.
The prearrangement contract provides loved ones with quality time, free of any anguish. They can express all of their sorrow without having to deal with corporate intricacies and backlash.
To help you initiate this process, you can contact one of our consultants who will be more than happy to give you all of the information required and without any obligation on your part.
