Cemetery Services

Long after the funeral ceremony and reception are over, the memories of a special life live on. Today’s choices for lasting memorialization offer new opportunities to make a statement about the unique nature of that life.  Family and friends can experience a deeper sense of connection with their memories and with one another in a tranquil setting that’s guaranteed to be maintained forever.

Whether you prefer cremation or burial, our specialists will help you choose the perfect way to commemorate a special life. While River Park Memorial Chapel will work closely with any cemetery you choose, we suggest you consider our sister Arbor Memorial cemetery, Prince Albert Memorial Gardens.

Make a Tribute that Makes a Statement

From magnificent monuments to contemporary engraved plaques, there is sure to be a memorial choice that best suits the unique personality.  Here are some of the possibilities:

• Bronze memorials are installed on a granite base and flush with the ground or, for cremations, used to mark an  outdoor columbarium niche.
• Upright monuments, placed on a minimum four-foot deep concrete pad so as to prevent leaning, are created from the finest granite quarried worldwide. 
• The Living Tribute Program plants a tree in our cemetery in memory of your loved one, growing each year as a symbol of hope. You can include a plaque recognizing the family and/or person being honoured.
• Benches, and garden features such as rocks and sundials, are a natural way to memorialize your loved one.
• Indoor glass-front columbarium niches hold cremated remains, and offer family and friends the ability to visit year round.
• Outdoor columbarium niches provide a tranquil and peaceful setting in a natural environment.
• Crypts can accommodate multiple generations. With many styles and sizes available, we can craft the perfect crypt to reflect your family.
• Mausoleums are climate controlled buildings that house both crypts and niches. We also have areas that can be blessed by religious leaders or designated for special family customs. Many opt to include pictures, epitaphs or memorable scenes on the memorials. This makes the tribute even more individualized and distinct.
