Our Main Funeral Services

We provide a full range of services to meet all the needs and wishes of the deceased's family. Each service is performed with the utmost delicacy and professionalism.

Morgue Services and Body Preparation

Proper preparation of the body is an important stage of the farewell. Our morgue services include transporting and placing the deceased in a cold chamber for preservation until the day of the funeral. Qualified morticians perform all necessary procedures: washing, dressing, and applying post-mortem makeup. We pay special attention to embalming. This procedure can be performed by injecting the body with a special solution or by filling the circulatory system with an embalming fluid, which ensures long-term tissue preservation.

Transport Services (Hearse)

Our fleet of specialized vehicles for transporting the deceased. We offer hearse services of various types: an elegant limousine for a solemn ceremony or a minivan, which, in addition to space for the coffin, has seats for the pallbearer team or close relatives. Our funeral services guarantee the timely and careful delivery of the body from the morgue to the place of farewell and to the cemetery.

Grave Digging

Grave digging is a responsible process that we carry out in accordance with all norms and standards. In new plots, mechanized equipment can be used with subsequent manual finishing to give an aesthetic appearance. When burying in an existing family grave, the work is done exclusively by hand. For a smooth and solemn lowering of the coffin, we use special towels or a modern lowering device (singumator). We organize grave digging for single, double, and family burials.

Cremation and Columbarium Services

Cremation is becoming an increasingly common alternative to traditional burial. We take on the full organization of this process. After cremation, the ashes are placed in an urn, which can be buried in a columbarium - a special repository. Columbariums can be underground (niches in the ground) or above-ground (walls with niches). We will help with the placement of the urn and will make a granite plaque with a portrait, dates of life, and an epitaph.

Exhumation and Reburial

Sometimes it becomes necessary to exhume a body for reburial in another cemetery, subsequent cremation, or repatriation abroad. This complex procedure requires legal preparation and physical execution. Our agent, on behalf of the family, obtains all the necessary permits (prosecutor's office, sanitary-epidemiological service, local authorities). After that, a team exhumes the remains, places them in a sealed galvanized container, and transports them to the new destination.

Memorial Meal

A memorial meal is an important tradition that allows loved ones to gather and remember the deceased. We will help you choose a convenient cafe or restaurant, agree on a menu according to your wishes and budget, and also book a hall for the required date and time. If necessary, we can provide the services of a professional master of ceremonies for the memorial meal.

What is included in the memorial meal organization service?

Our funeral agent acts as your personal assistant, coordinating every aspect of the event, from choosing a location to the final details of serving. The comprehensive organization of a memorial meal in Kyiv includes:

We offer a choice of several cafes or restaurants based on your preferences. Conveniently located near the cemetery, crematorium, or your home, so that guests can easily get there. Selection of a hall that can comfortably accommodate all invited guests, whether it is a narrow family circle or a large number of people. We choose establishments with a calm, secluded atmosphere where no one will disturb you.

The menu for the memorial table has its own peculiarities. We will help you compose it correctly, taking into account all the canons and your wishes. Mandatory memorial dishes, such as kutia, pancakes, and kisel, will be prepared in compliance with all the rules. We will agree with you on a full list of hot dishes, appetizers, and drinks, based on your budget and tastes. If the memorial meal falls during a fast, we offer a special Lenten menu that fully complies with church requirements.

We control all the details to ensure that the meal goes smoothly and with dignity. Memorials are held not only on the day of the funeral, but also on the 9th day, the 40th day, and the anniversary of death. We will book a hall for any required date. We conduct all negotiations with the restaurant, control the quality of service and the timeliness of serving dishes.
