As warmer weather approaches, we would like to remind visitors that seasonal cemetery maintenance is beginning soon. Our grounds team will be removing winter wreaths and any decorative items that do not meet cemetery guidelines.

We kindly ask visitors to place only fresh cut flowers at their loved ones’ resting places. Thank you for your cooperation as we work to preserve the beauty and serenity of our grounds.

Letting go of items doesn’t mean letting go of memories.

It’s normal to feel some guilt when sorting through a loved one's belongings, but know that releasing certain items does not weaken the bond you shared.

Take your time, honour your feelings, and allow yourself the space you need to make the right decisions.

Le mois de mars est consacré à la célébration de la langue française et de la richesse des cultures francophones à travers le monde. Le Mois de la Francophonie met en avant le dynamisme, le patrimoine et l’identité commune que véhicule la langue française.

Cette année, le thème « Active ta francophonie » invite la communauté francophone à s’impliquer dans sa culture et y tisser des liens. C’est une belle occasion d’apprécier, d’apprendre et de célébrer une langue qui rassemble les francophones et francophiles, en particulier ici au Canada.

------------------------------------------

The month of March is dedicated to celebrating the French language and the richness of Francophone cultures around the world. La Francophonie Month highlights the vibrancy, heritage, and shared identity carried through French.

This year’s theme, “active ta francophonie,” encourages engagement and connection within the Francophone community. It’s an opportunity to appreciate, learn, and celebrate a language that brings people together, especially here in Canada.

As we celebrate the diversity that strengthens our multicultural communities, we honour the many traditions that bring people together in meaningful and heartfelt ways.

This season holds special significance for those observing Nowruz and Eid, both of which reflect themes of renewal, reflection, and hope.

May these celebrations, and all cultural traditions, bring peace, unity, and warmth to you and your loved ones.
