Special Event
Commemorate Your Loved Ones
Memorial Mass in Honor of the Dead
The Notre-Dame-des-Neiges Cemetery team invites you to a commemorative mass in honor of the deceased which will be held at the Notre-Dame-de-la-Résurrection Chapel. Reservations are preferable, but optional — you may attend mass at the best time for you.
We're with you every step of the way. We're here for you, 24 hours a day, every day. Your advisor will guide you through the various stages and ensure your needs are heard and met.
Bury your loved one in one of our eco-friendly groves which involves the burial of biodegradable urns under saplings guaranteed to grow into beautiful trees. The deceased's ashes are thus returned to nature, and generations to come can gather around the growing tree, chosen from a selection of native species adapted to the area's environment.
Mausoleums are large buildings that offer different alternatives to in-ground burials. They house many crypts and indoor columbaria, allowing families to visit their loved ones year-round, regardless of the weather.
Thanks to its exceptional location on Mount Royal, Notre-Dame-des-Neiges Cemetery has hundreds of acres of land with space for many plots for years to come.
Exposed to the elements, your loved ones' monuments lose some of their luster over time. Honor your loved ones by restoring their monuments to their original glory. Our chemical-free technique leaves the engravings intact.
