Morgue services

Morgue services cover all essential procedures required to prepare the deceased for burial or cremation. The process is carried out with dignity, proper hygiene, and professionalism — from transportation and storage of the body to dressing, casketing, and cosmetic preparation.

Funeral home Angel AB provides a full range of mortuary services in Riga and Jurmala

Transportation and storage of the deceased

We provide 24/7 transportation of the deceased from the place of death to the morgue. After transportation, the body is placed in specially equipped morgue facilities at the appropriate temperature. This ensures preservation until burial or cremation, in full compliance with sanitary standards.

If you require a consultation or transportation of the deceased to the morgue, please contact us at our 24-hour phone line:

Sanitary services

Sanitary procedures include washing and disinfecting the body, shaving, and care for nails and hair.
These services ensure a hygienic and well-groomed appearance before the farewell ceremony.

Dressing and casketing

Funeral home Angel AB offers dressing and casketing services

The deceased is dressed in the chosen clothing, provided by relatives or purchased at the funeral home. After dressing, the casketing process takes place — the deceased is placed in the casket using special accessories (pillow, shroud).

Our funeral home branches offer a wide range of funeral and cremation accessories — coffins of various designs and materials, including classic wooden coffins and refined oak sarcophagi, as well as a full set of clothing for the deceased. We offer dresses, suits, and other clothing items in different sizes, colors, and models to ensure a dignified and appropriate appearance for the farewell ceremony.

Cosmetic preparation

Cosmetic preparation is a procedure that helps correct visible damage or changes. Special products and techniques are used to preserve a natural appearance.

Embalming

Embalming is a special procedure for preserving and sanitizing the body. It slows down natural processes and helps maintain a natural appearance until the farewell ceremony, transportation, or longer storage.

When embalming is recommended:

  • for long-term storage or postponed funerals
  • for international transportation (repatriation), if required by the recipient country
  • if it is necessary to improve the appearance after trauma or illness
