Shared Memories (Communal Cremations)

Your Pet is cremated with other beloved ones. The cremains are then scattered on our very own “Pathways of Life”, a serene green lawn which overlooks the beautiful Ottawa river and the tranquil Quebec mountains. Here your pet will have its final resting place with other beloved ones.
