About Us

As a publicly traded company, we value transparency, community, and professional development.

Rumbu is a trusted network of funeral homes serving communities across Western Canada. While we are a publicly traded company, our heart lies in compassionate, community-based service. Each of our locations is staffed by local professionals who are dedicated to helping families navigate some of life’s most difficult moments with care, respect, and understanding.

We believe that every life deserves to be remembered with dignity and that every family should feel supported—before, during, and after the funeral. That’s why our team goes beyond the basics to offer thoughtful, personalized care tailored to the unique needs of each family we serve.

Our funeral homes are as diverse as the communities they serve—some are long-established rural providers, others are modern urban facilities—but all share the same commitment to excellence. Rumbu works quietly behind the scenes to ensure each location has the tools, training, and support they need to deliver the highest standard of care.

Whether you are pre-planning a service, facing an unexpected loss, or simply exploring your options, you can trust a Rumbu-affiliated funeral home to walk alongside you with professionalism and empathy.

We also believe in taking care of the people who take care of your family. Rumbu invests in safe, healthy workplaces and upholds the highest standards of ethical practice across all of our locations.

At Rumbu, we are more than a network—we are a community of caregivers dedicated to helping families move forward, one step at a time.
