We used Thompson in the Park for my father’s funeral in 2014. They made the experience incredibly easy & showed us immense compassion and kindness. When my uncle passed in September of 2022, we came back to Thompson and again had a wonderful experience. Their compassion and thoughtfulness will never be forgotten. We appreciate how much care they put in and how they truly make you feel like family. Thank you so much for all you do.
The Funeral Directors and staff at Thomson “In the Park” are of the highest quality and made the experience of losing and interring our loved ones so much more manageable than it otherwise could have been. All involved were helpful, compassionate and patient with all members of our family, and helped us manage our way through a two-year period of delay for our triple interment as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We will always be grateful for the professionalism of the Thomson “In the Park” team, in particular Aaron Bowskill, and would recommend Thomson “in the Park” most highly to anyone requiring funeral and interment services. A caring team all-around. The Henault Family
They promise every detail remembered, they take notes, they let a grieving family depend on their expertise and yet they didn’t do a single thing correctly. They were disorganized, they completely forgot things, their static livestream camera isn’t focused on the speakers, and they played the wrong song. They are very sorry. That doesn’t help, they had one chance. They failed.
Such a Beautiful funeral home and the staff were EXCEPTIONAL!! It made our hardest time in life so easy to get through...Cannot thank all of the staff enough for your Professionalism, Kind and Caring experience!!
My family did not feel pressured into spending more then we were comfortable with. Our funeral director was honest about cost and willing to help us find something that was within our budget. We felt so comfortable and at ease with Lorraine and the team.
Had a very negative experience. Would give zero stars if I could. Consider going somewhere else for the price and service. Had my father's service carried out by them. First time we have lost someone so we were quite new to the process. Had a phone call and an in-person appointment with a representative who was initially quite helpful, we explained our situation to them, they explained the process and requirements. We knew it was quite a big amount we were paying but had a relief that our loved one would be handled well and family outside of Winnipeg would be relived to see a good sendoff. All was fine and we proceeded forward. - The service was unfortunately quite restricted due to COVID, which is as understandable. - But the rep had no control over the service, - live video was not functioning well which was as the main reason we chose them, - the death certificate came 6-7 months after they placed the order. As explained to them, we needed the death certificate as soon as possible and we were told 6months is what we would expect. It shocked us when we called in to check with Vital Statistics the status of the death certificate and they said for 120$ a rushed order could be placed and it would get delivered in a couple days. - the distasteful remarks on tradition and culture by the rep only further confirmed that the funeral home staff were akin to sales person and only cared about making the sale. The funeral home tacks on useless charges and doesn't inform you what is required and the available options unless you ask. I would have accepted it, but given the kind of service that was carried out it is unaccceptable.
The Funeral Directors, Shane and Arron worked with us and were very respectful of our needs. They demonstrated and provided a very positive atmosphere throughout our ordeal. Always a gentle reminder of Covid and health rules here and there but we were still able to grieve as a family. Thank you for your dedication.
We had a 2 day window to plan our father's funeral. Out of 10 possible places to call my first one was Thomson "in the park". We wanted to do a hindu funeral. The price was excellent and I liked that they had the chapel, the reception area and crematorium in one building. The property also has a lot of parking for guests. The building itself is beautiful and the staff were so attentive. In comparison to other places we chose this because of the price and it was easier logistically to do everything in one building. The staff: First: I need to mention that when I called on Wednesday evening the answering service stated that a funeral director would call me at 8:45am the next morning. Thursday morning: they called exactly at 8:45. They already professionally left a good impression in this respect. Jason met with my siblings and me and he was so wonderful and caring. He met our needs and was not pushy about sales on extras. Nonetheless, the options were explained and are if we choose. Transpency is what we were looking for in a funeral home and Thomson "in the park" demonstrates this. We felt that Jason went above and beyond when planning and meeting our needs. He is a definite asset to this company and anyone that will have him as a funeral director. He was genuine, empathetic, calming, thorough and ensured that everything was taken care of so that we can focus on our father's funeral service and grieving. He communicated with us effectively and even asked us to email our playlist of songs and an MP4 of our videos and photos that were shown on the retractable screen. This made our father's funeral more personal and touching for everyone and us. All of our guests commented positively on the Thomson staff and how the venue was beautiful and warm. Reception room: This add-on was so worth it. The 2 hostesses were very sanitary as they served tea and coffee. We had a lot of food. They displayed the food on the tables. The entire staff that were working during our father's funeral helped bring in our drinks and foods. We didn'teven ask for help. They cleaned up and we didn'thave to worry about this either. The reception hall is beautiful and quaint with a TV that projected videos of our dad with his grandkids. Post funeral: Rick was helpful in explaining what documents need to be taken care of and what phone calls should be made. My sister, brother and I recommend Thomson "in the park". This venue will be in our future plans most definitely. Thank you Jason and all of the staff for your professionalism, your attentiveness, attention to detail and for guiding and helping us organize a beautiful and memorable service for our father. - From the Dutta Family
We were glad we choose Thomson in the Park. We had already used their services for my father's funeral in the past. We appreciate the care and service you provided our mother. Thank you.
We were overwhelmed with all of the planning involving our Mother's passing. Richard Wankling was beyond compassionate and caring in his support as well as the staff at Thomson "In the Park" with handling the transfer of our Mother with dignity and respect and making the overall experience in handling the loose ends that were required. The facility is beautiful and provided us with comfort knowing that our loved one was cared for and prepared for viewing. Thank you to Thomson " In the Park" and a special thank you to Monica who helped with the coffee and the catering afterwards. This made the transition for our family and our mother very peaceful and comforting knowing that her journey and those who cared for her during and after the transport was done with the upmost of care.
