White Chapel Memorial Gardens features the convenience and flexibility of an on-site crematorium.
In Canada, the popularity of cremation is steadily increasing. While cremation can be a simpler and more affordable option than a traditional burial, it still provides a meaningful way to say your final goodbye.
Final Resting Place Options
Depending on your preferences, the urn can be buried, or placed in an indoor/outdoor niche, mausoleum, columbarium, or special urn garden.
