Legacy is not leaving something for people. It’s leaving something in people. Peter Strople
Is there a difference in a family-owned funeral home?
With the recent sale of a number of local family-owned funeral homes to corporate-owned, is there a difference? Yes, there is a difference.
Legacy Funeral and Cremation Services Inc. takes pride in all that we do for you. Our attention is focused on making our funeral home the best in Barrie. We do not need to be the biggest, oldest or cheapest. Our focus is to be the best for each family we serve.
Unlike corporate-owned funeral homes we give you the personal attention and extra support that you deserve. At Legacy Funeral Home, Barrie you receive the professionalism and care that comes from a family who has deep roots and a vested interest in our community. Because we are family owned it makes us more flexible, more responsive to your needs because you are our neighbour.
Our primary focus is on the families we serve. Like any business we need a profit to exist, however we are not profit driven. We do not use high pressure sales tactics, we do not offer bonuses or incentives based on sales, and we do not answer to stakeholders or investors. Any profits stay in the community by supporting other local businesses, charities, and organizations.
If you have pre-arranged or pre-paid your funeral, you have the right to transfer to another provider. We honour prepaid contracts from other funeral homes. There is no cost to transfer (some conditions apply). Contact the Bereavement Authority of Ontario or feel free to contact us at any time for information. 705-728-8282
We are pleased to offer our families FinalDocx®, an automated Estate Documents solution.
Our mission is to provide exceptional and meaningful service to families at their time of need. We will do this by being professional, ethical, and providing the highest quality funeral service available at an affordable price.
