As one of the community’s most cherished and esteemed spaces, the Innisfail Cemetery offers a peaceful and idyllic setting in which citizens can solemnly pay respect to, and remember, their loved ones. The Town of Innisfail strives to maintain the cemetery grounds in the most sensitive, least intrusive manner possible. Town staff work diligently to ensure the premises remain exceptionally well-tended.
In order to ensure staff can maintain these standards, breakable vases, ornaments and decorations are not permitted in the cemetery, including within columbarium areas. Decorations that encroach on neighbouring columbarium niches are also not permitted and will be removed. Such items can make grounds-keeping exceptionally difficult and time-consuming. For this reason, the Town will be placing any such items in a common area at the cemetery entrance for retrieval starting on June 1, 2026. If you have placed any memorial items at a gravesite or columbarium, you will have the opportunity to claim the items in this designated space.
Should you wish to add a specific monument or structure - such as a planter, vase, statue, bench or lawn ornament - please contact the Town beforehand. That way, we can review and approve the item(s) so we know what should and shouldn’t be removed as we work to upkeep and maintain the facility, including columbarium areas.
