ABOUT US

About Us

Welcome to Burquitlam Funeral Home – proudly serving families in the Tri-Cities and surrounding communities for over 60 years.


Founded in 1964, Burquitlam Funeral Home has remained a trusted, family-owned business with a deep commitment to compassionate service and community connection. What began as a humble home on North Road, built by my great-uncle in the 1920s, has grown and evolved with the community around it—through times of farmland, to high-rises, and into a new chapter.

As a second-generation funeral director, I’m honoured to continue the McCormick family tradition of caring for families during life’s most difficult moments. Our team takes pride in offering professional, personalized services with the utmost dignity, whether you are making arrangements in a time of need or planning ahead for peace of mind.


In 2023, Burquitlam Funeral Home joined with Kearney Funeral Services, expanding our reach and resources while preserving our deep local roots. As of October 2024, we’ve relocated to our modern, purpose-built facility at 102 - 200 Bernatchey Street in Coquitlam. This state-of-the-art location offers families a peaceful, accessible environment in the heart of historic Maillardville.


Our services include:


  • Personalized funeral and memorial services
  • Cremation and burial planning
  • Advance planning consultations
  • Grief and aftercare support
  • Our annual Candlelight Service of Remembrance


Whether you’re seeking guidance today or planning for tomorrow, we’re here to help—with compassion, professionalism, and genuine care.

On behalf of our entire team, thank you for your trust and support over the years. We remain committed to serving this community with integrity and heart for generations to come.


Warm regards,

Rob McCormick
