Serving Oceanside and Alberni Valley families since 1998 It is our honor to serve our community and the “lives cherished and celebrated”. We believe that each life lived was lovingly cared for and valued. It is our commitment to help you find the best way to honor and remember your loved one. We are continuing the caring tradition Ron and Jo-Anne Yates began in 1998, and have deep ties to the community to help provide the best service available. To be family owned, means we can provide a personal approach to meeting your needs. Today’s families want to honor their loved one, their way, so we listen, and put your needs first. We take a “people before profit” approach and because we have been there ourselves, we know the type of burden end of life can present. We are here to help and are committed to supporting you along the way. Yates Memorial is proud to operate two full-service facilities to care for the needs of our clients, from cremation and burial options to celebrations of life and memorial services, as well as post-ceremony receptions. Our personalized, individual approach allows us to accommodate your wishes, so that loved ones can be remembered in a way that truly reflects the life they led.
