Where to Begin
Funeral services can be unfamiliar territory for many, with various processes, costs, and products involved that are unknown and often difficult to discuss. Our intention is to ease feelings of uncertainty by providing clear and concise information about the services we offer.
The Arrangement Process
Upon request for services, one of our licensed funeral directors will need to meet with the deceased’s authorized legal representative to begin the process of making arrangements. If the deceased has a will in place the “executor” would be the individual responsible for making the arrangements and signing the funeral documentation. If there is not an existing will, the funeral director must determine the legal next of kin as outlined by the “order of priority” under British Columbia’s Cremation Interment and Funeral Services Act. The funeral director will gather information about your loved one and family’s wishes, are they for burial or cremation services? The funeral director collects personal information about the deceased (information for B.C. Vital Statistics Agency) such as date and location of birth, healthcare and social insurance numbers as well as their primary occupation. This information is used to register the death with Vital Statistics which then allows the funeral provider to generate the required documentation, including the original death certificate.

About Us
100 Mile Funeral Service was founded in 1978 by Ian and Del Gunn who had previously owned and operated a Funeral Home in Northern Manitoba for a number of years. Ian’s reputation as the local funeral director evolved in the Cariboo, and his son Shane began working with him in 1992. Shane and his wife Meg purchased the company in 1997, and in 1999 established the funeral home at its present location on Cedar Avenue in 100 Mile House where it still remains today.
After having served the community of 100 Mile House and the outlying areas for close to two decades, 100 Mile Funeral Service expanded to Williams Lake: BC and Cariboo-Chilcotin Funeral Service Ltd. was established. Our organization, serving both 100 Mile House and Williams Lake is grateful to our genuine, professional and dedicated staff who possess an exceptional ability to attend to all communities. We will continue to hold the needs of the individuals we serve in the highest regard, and strive to provide the highest level of service in your time of need.
