We'd love to hear from you. Leave us a review! 

At a very difficult time, Greg Linton was amazing. His calm demeanor and knowledgeable ways helped us navigate smoothly to get through it. He was quick with documents that needed signing and seeing to any of our needs. Even when he was not going to be available, he left us in the capable hands of Destiny. We couldn’t be more grateful!

I cannot begin to thank you for your time and understanding in dealing with my Mom. I know it wasn’t typical situation but you made having to deal with this a lot easier. I am as always humbled and grateful for my moms final arrangements being held with such compassion and professionalism.

She looked so at peace for the first time ever in her life.

My husband of almost 72 years passed away in Aug 2021.

We appreciate all the compassion, kind manner and respect which our family was treated during this traumatic time in our lives. I really appreciated the extra feature that they contacted Revenue Canada, CPP, and other offices and provided them the necessary documentation, this really relieved some of the paperwork maze. It was a nice gesture to receive the takeaway dinner. Thank you all for a very professional caring service.

After losing my “mate” of 49 years, (Cecile Czechowski) I would like to thank all of you, from the front desk on for the help and support at one of the most stressful times in my own long extended life. Your understanding is not forgotten. THANK YOU.

Funeral Director, Greg Linton was extraordinary. He made this very difficult time --- when our lovely mother Isabella passed away on June 9th, easier due to his enormous kindness, willingness to help out, and gentle words of support and compassion. even when he had very short notice or various challenges arose. He was always welcoming and would take my calls to answer my questions and attend to things without hesitation. Thank you Greg from me and all our family for going above and beyond at every turn. Please extend our appreciation to your staff who were also very helpful. Very sincerely and with gratitude, Caroline Isabella Marcinek.

Thank you to Bob Carlton for your assistance in all the administrative requirements and for coordinating logistics between Penticton and the West Kelowna chapel. You were there when we needed you, and you stayed on the sidelines to respond quickly to anything that came up. A very special and sincere acknowledgement to Jessica for making mom look beautiful for our final goodbye.

I would give the Penticton office 5 stars Greg was so kind and was very helpful on somethings that I had missed. His voice was very calming at a difficult time. The secretary who answered the phone was also kind and helpful. I would highly recommend this funeral home.

i recently lost my husband and during this very traumatic time i feel fortunate to have been helped by Jessica Fulkerson. Jessica was kind compassionate and professional. She was patient and never made us feel rushed. Everything she did was done with intergrity and grace. The extra touches dge suggested showed a great deal of understanding on Jessica's part that were clearly sincere and from her heart. I truly don't know, how i would have managed without Jessica. She touched my heart when it was very broken. Thank you Jessica and Providence your kindness it will be remembered by myself and my family.

Saying goodbye to a loved one is hard enough but having to do this during a pandemic is even more difficult. Brenda handled things so calmly and worked with us to make the best of a bad situation when further restrictions were applied. Brenda was always available and accommodating and answered all of our questions. We would like to Thankyou Brenda for being so kind and compassionate.

I would like to thank the Providence Funeral Homes staff for the caring and compassionate way in which you handled my husband Russell J. Robillard's funeral arrangements, service, livestream and cremation. Everything fell into place and it was so beautiful and peaceful. I was very grateful. I would also like to especially thank Crystal Gabriel for going above and beyond in her love for her job. She made me feel so calm, cool and connected when I had to be. There was a peace about Crystal that spread to the rest of my family. Angels were definitely present, because they followed me home and are now ministering to me to help me get through this time in my life. I know Russ would want me to "get through this" so I welcome the Angels that he helped send my way. Thank you for everything you do Crystal and to the wonderful staff at the Providence Funeral Homes in Penticton, BC. Love you all. Now I want to collect Angels from now on. <3 <3 <3 I know I'm going to be OK. :)

Thanks so much to Providence Funeral home in Summerland for your compassionate and respectful treatment during this time of mourning over the loss of our mother Dorothy Bayles.
I stayed with my mother until Shayla came to collect her. Shayla was most respectful and caring of my mother who had just passed. Brenda and Joyce, I cannot thank you enough for your attention to detail and caring manner in which you treated myself, my sister and my wife. Finally, Nolan thanks also for your thoughtful explanation of the live streaming- this was a valuable service which many family friends enjoyed seeing.

Jessica was thorough, professional, and extremely compassionate. She took care of everything our family needed and made an incredibly difficult time for us easier to cope with by making this part of the process easy, and without hiccups of any sort.

One has no plan when your daughter die. You suddenly deal with so much emotional stress as well as organization which you are not prepared for. Kevin and his staff led us through the process of planning for a Celebration of Life in increments that we could easily handle while taking care of the rest. At the celebration, the staff was there to help everything run smoothly. The set up was done very tastefully and professionally. He also took care of some of the administration that we could not even think about at the time. His energetic though empathetic personality balanced our grief so that we could take care of the immediate issues and have a lovely celebration for our precious daughter. Thanks Kevin and your team
