Our Staff

At Slade's Funeral Homes we are pleased to have a professional, caring and understanding team to offer a strong support system to the families we serve. We pride ourselves on our personal manner treating each family as if they were our own.

Edward (Ned) and Elizabeth Slade made their dream a reality when they established there first funeral home in 1993 in Carbonear. In 2006 their vision grew when they established another Funeral Home in Bay Roberts. In 2012 together, Edward and Elizabeth decided to purchase their newest funeral home in the town of Upper Island Cove. We believe that families deserve Funeral Service choices that respected their values and honor the people they cherish.

These are instrumental in establishing the high standards of services their clients have come to know and expect at Slade's Funeral Homes and we continue to provide unique ideas to better serve the families that entrust such dignified services with us. The Slade's take great pride in providing professional service to their communities they serve and recognize the loyalty the communities offer in return.
