Cemeteries
Arbor Memorial cemeteries are beautifully maintained and protected green spaces that invite families and friends to find solace and comfort. Arbor Memorial offers a broad selection of crypts, urns, and niches for individuals or families. Spaces can be personalized and memorialized with bronze or marble markers, vases, lamps, bronze frames or ceramic pictures. Our indoor locations are well-lit and ventilated, tranquil, clean and elegant, providing comfortable visitation in any season.
Funeral Services
A funeral service gives family and friends the chance to remember loved ones and relive joyous moments while saying goodbye. Our experts will advise and assist you throughout the whole funeral process, from filing documents to choosing a casket, niche or crematorium, to arranging the mourning ceremony, procession and vigil.
Cremation
More Chinese Canadians are choosing cremation as part of their final arrangements. Cremation is often combined with a traditional funeral or memorial service. Prior to cremation, there are often visitations and services held at the funeral home, church or crematorium chapel. A collection of quality cremation products, including cremation and keepsake urns, jewelry and memorial record packages, help ensure your loved one’s memory will be with you forever.
