Crématel now offers a complete range of products and a turnkey service, including commemorative items (souvenir jewelry, bookmarks), floral arrangements, urns, caskets, and much more. Each element is carefully designed to accompany families with respect, transparency, and simplicity. Present in the Laurentians and Lanaudière regions, Crématel also offers a long-distance repatriation service throughout Quebec, at highly competitive prices. A 100% Quebec-owned company, Crématel stands out for the commitment of its attentive staff, available at all times to guide families, whether in person, by phone, or online. Its funeral packages are among the most affordable on the market, with no hidden fees, and are designed to meet the needs of each individual, in a spirit of simplicity, dignity, and respect.

Today, Complexes funéraires Yves Légaré is not only one of the few funeral services companies in the greater metropolitan area that is still owned by a Quebec family, but also its success and initiatives have made it a leader in its field for nearly a century.

In 2022, the company is expanding its offerings by making funeral pre-arrangements available. This approach responds to a growing need among people wishing to plan their funeral services in advance in the Laurentians. Pre-arrangements offer numerous benefits: they provide peace of mind for both the person concerned and their loved ones, while freeing them from emotional and financial burdens at the time of death.

In 2021, Crématel was acquired by Actuel Funeral Services, a Quebec family business headquartered in Montreal. Offering similar products and services, this merger was a natural fit, respecting the shared values ​​of both organizations.

However, in 2020, this branch closed its doors in favor of a more modern approach, focused on funeral arrangements made by telephone. Indeed, families who use Crématel Funeral Services are primarily looking for economical services, focused on cremation. The company meets this need by offering a simple service, without hidden costs, while maintaining impeccable quality service. This Quebec company stands out for its human, transparent approach, perfectly adapted to the realities of today's families.

Wanting to reach a greater number of families, in 2013 they opened a second address on Chemin d'Oka, in Sainte-Marthe-sur-le-Lac, in the heart of the Laurentians.

Drawing on their expertise in the healthcare field, Lise Latendresse and Denis Therrien joined forces in 2002 to found Crématel Funeral Services. Their goal: to meet a growing need for cremation in the Lanaudière region. Their project took shape in Sainte-Julienne, on Cartier Street.

The turn of the millennium marked an evolution in the ways of paying tribute to the deceased, forcing traditional funeral services to evolve to meet contemporary expectations.
