Connelly - McKinley Funeral Homes
​Edmonton and Area
​Healing Hearts, Inspiring Trust, Honouring Legacy.
As of November 1, 2024, Foster & McGarvey Funeral Homes, a long-standing and trusted provider for our CMS members in the Edmonton area, became part of the Connelly-McKinley family. This change reflects a shared commitment to compassion and continuity of care for you and your loved ones.

We want to reassure you that the personalized, respectful service you’ve come to know from Foster & McGarvey will continue under the Connelly-McKinley name. They remain dedicated to honouring all CMS member benefits and ensuring that the values we hold close—dignity, understanding, and support—remain central to their work. If you have any questions or simply wish to speak with us about this transition, please reach out. We’re here for you, just as we’ve always been, every step of the way.

​With warm regards,
The Cooperative Memorial Society Team
