  • Standing Sprays and Wreaths

    These large, formal tributes are often displayed at the front of the service. These are typically sent by immediate family, close friends, colleagues or employers wanting to express their condolences and honour life of those who have passed on.

  • Casket Sprays and Adornments

    These very large sprays are only created to rest on top of the casket and and adornments within it. These designs are typically ordered by the immediate family.

Serving Vancouver Families with Care

Mount Pleasant Universal Funeral Home opened in 1914 and has occupied its current location at 306 E 11th Avenue since 1927, making it one of the longest-operating funeral homes in metropolitan Vancouver. The chapel features stained-glass windows, traditional pew seating, and a piano — elements that give the space a warmth and gravity that many families find comforting. The facility was refreshed in 2019 to maintain its character while modernizing its amenities.

What distinguishes Mount Pleasant Universal is its deep expertise in multicultural funeral services. Staff conduct services in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, and the funeral home has become a trusted choice for Chinese and Asian communities across Metro Vancouver. It is the only chapel in the area that accommodates the Taoist practice of burning joss paper — a detail that matters to families observing traditional rites. The funeral home is also an active member of the Mount Pleasant Business Improvement Association, reinforcing its role as a neighbourhood institution.
