Wall-Custance Memorial Forest Open House Day

The Wall-Custance Memorial Forest Open House Day is a day-long, self-guided memorial, held each year at The Arboretum on the third Sunday of September. The Open House includes musical moments in the Memorial Forest Grove throughout the day and an invitation to make a walking remembrance along the forest trail. One community tree is added to the Grove each year, beside a plaque listing each person being honoured. Family and friends are invited to come and go on their own time to visit the new tree and remember their loved ones. In addition to the community tree, another native tree or shrub is planted for each person in our ecological forest restoration areas. Since 1989, over 20,000 trees and shrubs have been planted in memory of loved ones.  This grove and trails can be visited all year long. Individual names are also listed on the Wall-Custance Funeral Home & Chapel website. For more information please visit the Wall-Custance website.
