Memorial Ethics

Memorial Ethics - What You Need To Know!

Code of good practice

Memorial Ethics - the Collins Dictionary defines the word;

Ethic: "Relating to morals, science of morals; moral principles, rules of conduct."

The emphasis of dealing with professionals in the memorial industry who have been recognized by colleagues and associations is testimony to the service they provide to consumers in every day practices.

These memorial ethics are followed by monument retailers/manufacturers across Canada and the United States on a voluntary basis,and members are sworn to follow a code of good business practice. Which is in short to serve the public interest in an honest, fair and sincere manner.

Here are two associations that you can refer to for help in finding members in your area:
