About this Event

Today’s seniors are embracing more personalized and meaningful approaches to end-of-life planning.

This engaging presentation explores non-traditional cremation and burial options that reflect individuality, values, and lifestyle. From burials and cremations to alternative memorial ideas and legacy planning, we’ll guide you through the choices that go beyond the conventional.

You’ll learn about the benefits of planning ahead—how it reduces stress for loved ones, ensures your wishes are respected, and often saves time and money.

We'll also discuss how to talk to your family about your plans, what to include in your documentation, and how to make informed decisions that align with your beliefs and budget.

Whether you're curious, ready to plan, or simply want to understand your options, this presentation offers insight, reassurance, and the tools to take the next step with confidence and peace of mind.

This is a free event, but space is limited—reserve your seat today!



This event is hosted in collaboration with Yonge Eglinton Community Centre, and takes place at their centre located at:
