As part of the Diocese of London, our presence in the community of Windsor and Essex County dates back to 1781, or put differently, 230 years and counting. Over that time, we have continuously evolved our operations, from the opening of Heavenly Rest Cemetery in 1929, to currently providing unsurpassed, state of-the-art facilities and services now and forever.

It should be noted that while Heavenly Rest Family of Catholic Cemeteries serves Windsor and Essex County, we are part of a much larger Family of Catholic Cemeteries serving the entire Diocese of London. Our goal is to provide a dignified final resting place and to minister to the cemetery needs of the community. This is inspired by our Christian belief in the Mystery of Death and Resurrection.

Today, we are truly a family of seven Catholic cemeteries committed to helping people of all faiths. Simply, we are here to respond to the needs of our families, whether it is a time when death has already occurred, or – more ideally – in assisting you with preplanning prior to death.

We thank-you for taking the time to visit our web site and encourage you to browse the various sections which are intended to be both informational and educational and integral to the needs of you and your family. We trust you will find it useful.

Heavenly Rest Family of Catholic Cemeteries also offers support in grieving and can assist you in contacting clergy anywhere in the Diocese of London. Monthly memorial masses for the deceased are scheduled the first Tuesday of the month at 4:30 p.m., inside Resurrection Mausoleum at Heavenly Rest Cemetery.

In addition, I would ask that you view our Family Service Advisors section - where our highly specialized staff, with more than a century of experience combined, can be contacted directly. One-on-one appointments can be arranged in your home or at our office, seven days a week. Likewise, our staff is available for group presentations.

I also encourage you to visit the Diocese of London web site where you will find a comprehensive listing of Catholic information and services for Ontario, and links to Catholic organizations world-wide.

Thank-you again for taking the time to visit our site. Please do not hesitate to Contact Us to request information, ask questions or make comments.

Remember, we are here to serve.
