Woodlawn Crematorium

The Crematorium in Woodlawn Memorial Park in Guelph was opened in 1984. The Cremation chamber is located behind and on the lower level of the Mausoleum. The traditional chapel in the Mausoelum provides intimate surrounding for cremation services and its unique design allows the symbolic "lowering" of the casket to the cremation rooms below. The chapel offers comfortable arm chairs if family members wish to be near and present as the cremation takes place. The chapel is heated in winter and cool in the summer. There is a CD player for your convenience, should you wish to play favourite music while you are there. There are two cremation machines in the Crematorium.
