Cremation Alternatives
Many options are available to consider with cremation and the staff at Harris Funeral Home
would be pleased to talk with you about your preferences. Over two-thirds of the families
we serve opt for cremation. Sometimes a traditional funeral takes place prior to cremation.
Other times, a memorial service is arranged; this is generally accepted to mean that the
body will not be present for a service.
When planning a memorial service family may choose to have a cremation urn present for
visitation and services. As with traditional services, photos and flowers, music and ritual,
may help to bring meaning and comfort. Our bright, homelike setting provides an ideal
environment for family and friends to gather in remembrance.
We also offer Immediate Cremation services. Our fees are very competitive and as always,
our staff are compassionate and will be attentive to your wishes.

DISBURSEMENTS
Disbursements are items arranged for and possibly paid for on your behalf by us. You are
expected to pay for these items at the time the contract is entered into. The following are some
items that are often identified as disbursements. H.S.T. applies to almost all disbursements.
Coroner’s fee – this is a fee charged by the coroner for issuing a certificate that allows
cremation to take place. The fee is set by the Chief Coroner for Ontario.
Catering – cost of food supplied by caterer for reception. Selection of caterer at discretion of
family. We would be pleased to recommend caterers.
Clergy honorarium – this is an amount paid to the clergy for their services. In some cases the
amount is set by the clergy, in others it is an amount to be determined by you.
Newspaper or radio notices – these are charges for death notices placed in newspapers or
radio or other media outlets. We are pleased to assist you with composing a notice and will
look after submission to media outlets.
Municipal death registration fee – this is a fee charged by the local municipality to register the
death. The fee is set by the municipality and may vary.
PAYMENT
Unless otherwise specified, payment is due within 30 days of signing the contract. Payment may
be made by cash, cheque, or bank draft. Payment plans are also available to meet most
budgets. Financing charges apply to payment plans. Beyond the allotted time, interest will be
charged at a rate of 2% per month which is equivalent to 26.82% per annum compounded.
If you are prepaying for services or supplies, pre-authorized chequing is also available.
FINANCING
Our payment plans give you the option of making payments over time. We offer a competitive
financing program, administration fees and interest rates.
FUNDING
We offer a trust funding option when prepaying services or supplies. When prepaying, you pay
for the services and supplies today and the money will be used to pay for the services and
supplies when they are delivered at the time of death.
Trust: You may pay the money directly to us and we will place it in trust, where it will accrue
interest until the contract is fulfilled (when the services and supplies are delivered) or the
contract is cancelled.
