Why join the Cooperative memorial society?

We understand that most people don't like to think about, talk about, or plan for their own death. Yet it is inevitable. Since we don't usually know when our time will come, planning ahead is important. It makes many people anxious and sometimes results in mental health issues like anxiety and depression.

We help you plan ahead by providing access to useful tools and resources. We provide information to help you consider your options and to make decisions and plans. We can help you save money on your funeral services through special price plans from our partner funeral homes across the province. We also can provide you with access to our online registry to store your funeral planning information. This makes it so simple for your next-of-kin and executors when they have to plan your funeral.

The Cooperative Memorial Society of Alberta would like to acknowledge that what we refer to as Alberta is the traditional ancestral territory of a diversity of Indigenous peoples and home to Treaty 6, 7, and 8. We honor the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika, the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, the Tsuu T’ina Nation and the Métis People of Alberta. This includes the Métis Settlements and the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta within the historical Northwest Métis Homeland. We recognize and give thanks to the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations, all who continue to grace these lands, and all future generations. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on or are visiting.
