Riverside's Christmases Remembered

As Christmas approaches each year, we often remember our loved ones that are no longer with us.  Whether its an empty chair at Christmas dinner, or the gift that never was delivered.

We can still keep the memory of our loved one alive at Christmas.

Please join us on December 1, 2023 between 4pm and 7pm at our newly renovated historic Chapel,.

If desired, you may hang a supplied memorial ornament in memory of your loved one, on our Riverside Memorial Christmas Tree. 

Refreshments will be serviced.

This is a sponsored event by The Lindsay Cemetery Corporation.

All welcome!



Decoration Day

The Lindsay Cemetery Corporation will be hosting a Decoration Day & Community BBQ.


Decoration Day BBQ is Saturday June 22, 2024 from 11am to 1pm

Come join us on this day to reflect and remember our loved ones.  This is a time to visit an old friend, and share a memory or two.

Stop by our main maintenance building for a hamburger, hotdog and refreshments, compliments of Riverside!

Whether you plant your flower bed, or have us do it for you through our flower program, its a great time to enjoy the beauty flowers bring us!


Thank you,

Timothy Godfrey

General Manager of the Lindsay Cemetery Corporation

Ontario's Funeral, Burial and Cremation Services act, 2002, - effective July 1, 2012

The Funeral, Burial and Cremation Services Act, 2002 regulates funerals, burials, cremations and related services in the province of Ontario. This act came into effect on July 1, 2012.  One of the biggest changes for us here at Riverside Cemetery came in the area of contracts.

First of all, Funeral Homes can no longer act on behalf of the cemetery to collect fees for cemetery services UNLESS there is a specific written agreement authorizing them to do so.


Secondly, full contracts are required for every sale of licensed cemetery services in excess of $250.00, and said contracts must be accompanied by an offer to provide copy (paper or electronic) of the Consumer's Guide to Funerals, Burials and Cremation Services; a copy of Cemetery Bylaws; and a copy of the Cemetery Price List. Please see our ABOUT page.


For more information please visit the Ministry of Consumer Services at www.ontario.ca/consumerservices and the Board of Funeral Services at www.funeralboard.com
