What is a Columbarium?

Jul 4, 2022 | 12:33 PM

Columbariums are above-ground, outdoor structures made up of individual niches specifically for the entombment of cremated remains.  Each niche houses one or two urns containing the cremated remains of the loved ones.

For those choosing cremation, Oliver’s owns and maintains its own Columbarium Walls conveniently located within both the Grande Prairie City and the Beaverlodge Town Cemeteries.

Our columbarium walls are both warm and inviting, maintaining an atmosphere of dignity, and serenity.

While cremated remains can be kept at home by families or scattered somewhere significant to the deceased, a columbarium provides friends and family a perpetual place to come to remember and visit.

It also preserves your loved one’s name and memory for generations to come.

Columbarium walls do not take up a lot of space and may prove to be a less expensive alternative to a cremation plot in a cemetery.

To personalize your loved one’s memory, the front of each niche may include an engraving or bronze plaque.

Columbariums provide a distinct and dignified cremation interment option that blends elegantly into the natural landscape as an everlasting tribute to your loved one.

 

To learn more about Oliver’s Columbarium options please call us at any time.

We at Oliver’s have put together a wide variety of options to ensure your loved one’s final resting place is one that suits your family.
