Funeral and Memorial Services for Lynden Families
When a Lynden family loses a loved one, Sig's Funeral & Cremation Services is ready to help, day or night. We offer traditional funeral services that include visitation, a funeral service, and a graveside or committal service, arranged around the traditions your family wants to honor. For families who prefer a different shape to their farewell, we also arrange memorial services and celebration of life gatherings that focus on remembering a life well lived rather than following a fixed order of service.
Many families choosing a traditional service also ask about a service followed by cremation, which lets loved ones gather for a visitation or ceremony before cremation takes place. We coordinate every detail of interment for families who choose burial in Lynden.
We serve families of every faith and background, and for those who do not have clergy already chosen, our team can connect you with a life celebrant to lead a meaningful, personal service. For families with a loved one who served in the armed forces, we help arrange veteran funeral honors, including flag presentation and honor guard coordination, a service we take particular care with as a firm that includes a Marine Corps veteran on staff.
Families thinking ahead can also begin pre-planning a funeral through our Purple Cross Forethought program, which lets you record your wishes now so your family has clear answers later. When you're ready to talk through your options, our funeral directors are only a phone call away.
Why Lynden Families Choose Sig's Funeral & Cremation Services
Lynden is home ground for the Aase family, who own and operate Sig's Funeral & Cremation Services. That local connection means Lynden families are working with a funeral home that understands the community, not an outside company. Our funeral directors are fully licensed, and we welcome families to ask to see those licenses before any arrangement conference begins.
Sig Aase has worked in Bellingham-area funeral service since 1977, and Sig's Funeral & Cremation Services has served Whatcom County families since the firm's founding in 2010. That combination of long personal experience and a family-owned firm gives Lynden families a steady, familiar hand to guide them through a difficult time.
Our team includes Ryan Christie, a funeral director and embalmer intern who is also a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, giving veteran families in Lynden someone on staff who understands military service firsthand. We also offer online cremation arrangements through PartingPro, which passes the savings of fewer in-person meetings directly to families who prefer to handle paperwork from home. Whatever option a Lynden family chooses, a licensed funeral director from Sig's Funeral & Cremation Services is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to answer questions and help with arrangements.
About Lynden, Washington
Lynden is the second-largest city in Whatcom County, sitting in the broad Nooksack River valley about 13 miles north of Bellingham and roughly five miles south of the Canadian border. The city grew from farmland cleared along the Nooksack River in the 1870s, and dairy, berry, and poultry farming remain central to the community today.
Lynden is widely known for its Dutch heritage, visible in the windmill and Dutch-styled storefronts along Front Street and celebrated each spring during the Holland Days festival. The city is also home to the Northwest Washington Fair, held every August, along with community gathering spots like Berthusen Park and the Lynden Pioneer Museum.
For families arranging a funeral or memorial service, Lynden's place within Whatcom County means cemeteries, churches, and community halls are all close at hand, and our Bellingham office is a short, direct drive down Guide Meridian Road for families who want to meet with us in person.
