Modern web presence for a family owned funeral home

As the only locally owned funeral home in St. Catharines, Ontario, George Darte Funeral Home & Cremation Centre has served generations of Niagara families with compassion and care. This redesign focused on accessibility, ease of use, and a refined visual language rooted in their long-standing values.

Trusted Since 1911

George Darte Funeral Home & Cremation Centre has been part of the St. Catharines community since 1911. Their team wanted a refreshed website that honoured their deep local roots while offering a warm, clear, and accessible online experience for today’s families.

Built for Ease, Care & Connection

I designed and built a new WordPress website that balances tradition with clarity and care. The project included:

  • A mobile-friendly design that makes key information easy to find
  • An updated navigation structure and clear calls to action for obituaries, service details, and contact
  • A homepage layout that highlights both history and family-focused care
  • Flexible content areas so their team can keep the site updated with ease
  • A refined wordmark, expanded colour palette, and custom type system to bring consistency to their visual identity
  • Canva templates for pre-planning resources that reflect the updated design direction

The result is a welcoming, modern website that supports families during times of need while reflecting the professionalism and care George Darte Funeral Home & Cremation Centre is known for.
