Cremation Services

Simple and Meaningful Choices
Cremation With Remembrance

Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens can provide convenient and flexible cremation services.

Cremation is on the rise in Canada, as many prefer the simpler and sometimes less expensive option over traditional burial. Cremation is no less dignified and respectful than burial, and provides an array of choices to honour and memorialize your loved one.

Final Resting Place Options

Cremation urns can be placed in an outdoor or indoor niche, columbarium or mausoleum. Or you may choose to bury the urn in a garden designed specifically for that purpose.

Chapel or Graveside Service

You still may want to pay your final respects to your loved one with a chapel or a graveside service just like you would during a traditional funeral.

Public Viewings and Visitations

For many families, viewings and visitations are an important part of the grieving process. And you can also choose to hold a reception, where friends and family can gather to share refreshments and reminisce.

Urns and Keepsakes

We provide a collection of keepsake urns, jewelry, and memorial record packages to ensure that your loved one’s memory remains with you every day.

The Benefits of Planning Ahead

  • Savings:  Planning early offers cost savings of up to thousands of dollars.
  • Reduce the burden on your family: Planning your final arrangements ahead of time reduces the responsibilities on your family at their time of distress.
  • Peace of mind: Gain comfort in knowing your plans are ready.
What is cremation and what choices can be made?

While it’s natural to think of cremation as the only decision to make, it’s really the first of many choices and details to consider. Similar to a traditional service, cremation allows for visitations, as well as funeral or memorial gatherings to celebrate a life well lived.  Learn more in our video about cremation.
