Reviews of York Cemetery and Funeral Centre (Mortuary)

York Cemetery which opened in 1948 and is full of colourful flower arrangements, unique architecture/sculptures and offers a beautiful walking path. Something about this place is super peaceful and at the same time quite a popular walkway in the neighbourhood. A great place to walk and I love how expansive it is!

Great place for a stress relieving morning or evening walk. Very well maintained with beautiful plants and trees as well as water bodies.

My mom is buried there since 2009 and it's very well kept, clean and peaceful. I'm positive my dear mom is resting in peace there with our other family members.

I personally want Imre S to be recognized for his patience, great service, compassion and understanding. He went above and beyond to ensure I felt heard and comfortable with everything we discussed. Not once did I feel rushed, pushed and like he was trying to "make a sale". We were preplanning and I had attempted with a couple of others but never took the plunge. The others felt like "a sale" nothing personal, no compassion, rushed, almost forced. Imre service was excellent! It wasn't a one day affair, as I came back a few times to look at examples he provided, went through my concerns, just made sure that I was completely comfortable with the whole process. Amazing young gentleman, professional but with a heart and soul. This is the kind of individual you want to have in these tough times and situations. It's already uncomfortable to make the decision to preplan and even harder for those who are grieving a loss. These are the kind of people that should be employed within an organization as such and highly recognized for the outstanding services. The Mount Pleasant Group is lucky to have such an individual working for them. Highly recommend this gentleman! If you want someone that is caring, compassionate, a professional with a heart and soul and who will ensure that he answers all of your questions, ask for Imre.

Beautiful

A perfect place to blend in with the nature. You can take a walk, jog, cycle, sit or do light exercise here. This place gives such spiritual vibes I am in awe of it. I try to visit here as many times as possible. Although I don't know anyone who rest in peace at this cemetery but to walk through their grave make me silently pray for them and their family.

Andrew Oosterhoff

The grounds are beautiful and well-maintained. From a 'non-customer' who enjoys riding through the cemetery, there are many interesting locations within.

A cemetery well maintained with long history. Tim Horton and his wife's gravy is in it.

Great place, clean and peaceful.

Hallowed grounds adjacent to the North York Cenotaph. Plenty of parking. The memorial rooms are modern and airy and takes the stigma away from cramped and dark memorial services.

Beautiful place. I enjoyed almost daily walks in this peaceful “garden”. Once I was caught up in rain and the grounds keepers spotted me and offered the ride to the main building. Thank you so much. It speaks highly of the professionalism one can expect here, either in this life or the next.

A beautiful cemetery & well taken care of plus nicely landscaped. NOW would be a GREAT idea to put out at least TWO Portable Toilets to allow anyone, but esp. older people visiting their loved ones to be able to use them as the washrooms in the office are STILL closed off. I am disappointed that this had NOT been done yet!!! I'm sure the organization can afford to do this!! JUST DO IT!!!

Rene Gauthier

Well looked after and maintained.

shiv sharma

Beba Kay

Credit should be given where credit is due. The utmost professional and dignified place and service. Thank you so much for honouring my Mom in this manner. She would have loved it. Now I know why she chose this as her final resting place.

Jay Stor

Quite place, well maintained

tina Laghaee

My mom is buried here in 2017. They maintain very well but the only thing is that We put flowers and is missing. Last year I bought flowers for my mom's anniversary and a week after one of the plant was disappeared. for her birthday I got beautiful flower someone stole it. this is very sad to see someone steal from the grave. I don't think whoever took it they can call themselves human .I complained to the office and they told me sadly they know but they cannot do anything.

A huge and heartfelt “Thank-You” to the staff at York Cemetery and Funeral Home; especially to Imre Szabo (Funeral Director) who went above and beyond in his duties and took such good care of our family during a difficult time. Imre was professional, knowledgeable, patient, kind and fun. Our family had planned a joyful, contemporary, and God-centred celebration for our mother starting with the morning burial, the afternoon service, and ending with a relaxed and casual reception. Imre and the additional staff involved in assisting us, went out of their way to meet all our requests. Again, “Thank- You”. The building on the grounds where we held our mother’s service and reception was bright, classy, and cheerful; one of the nicest I have personally been in. The property is well kept and park-like. The location is easy to find and there is plenty of parking

York Cemetery is a truly magnificent ,tranquil place with stunning landscaping and devoted and caring staff. My special thanks to Mr.Peter Summers for expeditiously resolving a problem with compassion, care, and far beyond our expectations . We are very grateful and thank him from the bottom of our hearts. The Cemetery should be proud to have this very special men on their team. I would like to thank Mrs.Elizabeth Cunningham as well for her warmth and understanding.

Bob Hussain

Thank you for keeping my dads grave neat and tidy! You have some amazing staff members who take care of there clients and ensure that everything is done right the first time. My dad was buried in 2000 and we have no complaints what so ever Peace and love be with your staff members

Sandra Ruscetta

After consulting with Peter Summers of ground maintenance and explaining our concerns to the grounds, he was very empathetic and understanding. He immediately spent the time with me going through each issue and I left satisfied knowing we were in good hands. I appreciate the very different nuances that go with this role and he understood ours. I want to thank Peter for his understanding and his actions to rectify the situation. Thank you Peter.!!

York cemetery provides a detailed and caring service. I dealt with Wendy, Vivian, and Jennifer and they were all exceptional.

barry carson

Great location but constant delays and broken promises when it comes to delivering services such as inscription which is paid up front and it takes about 4 months during the summer to get their supplier to come out to put a date on an existing grave marker. Ask yourself why a cemetery would continue to use only one supplier when that supplier takes months longer than others, doesn't delivery per agreed upon deadlines and charges more!

Laura Chong

A sincere thank you to Imre Szabo, who organised my father's funeral last week. He was professional, attentive to detail, answered emails quickly including during his time off, and made significant accommodation requests. The whole process was as stressless as possible, and the room was lovely.

Steven Yi

Great place to walk your doges!
