It was a pleasure and such an honor to attend St.Francis Xavier Cemetery in Renfrew this weekend to honor the Mulvihill family. We are excited that the family has chosen our Semi-annual maintenance package to keep the headstone looking beautiful year after year.

Did you know that we also care for and maintain roadside Memorials? Some families find comfort in a roadside memorial, so these are just as special to us. We maintain the grass around the memorial, plantings, rock features and even make a commemorative cross if you so choose. If a memorial is important to you, it's also important to us. Reach out if you would like more information!

Let's talk about Water staining and patience!

The first photo is the result of years of water staining build up. You could literally feel the build up!

The second photo is after 1 good scrub down cleaning. Yes it took some of the build up, but not much of the staining.

The last photo is the result 3 weeks later and having NEVER scrubbed it again!

I will likely scrub the last remaining pieces that are taking longer to help it along, but this is the result of what just even a little bit of care can do!

Many people Have no idea how to stop this, or how to care for it when it starts to happen. Reach out to us for a consult, clean and maintenance advice!

Preserving History. Honoring Legacy.

From Bonnechere Valley, to Cormac and then onto Shawville, today was a long but very productive day. It was also special. Today I honored my husband's Grandparents and Uncle, along with their baby daughter. ❤️ It means so much when I get the chance to honor our families!

We are off the Bonnechere Valley today to visit the Dacre Memorial Cemetery, and Saint Ann's Cemetery in Cormac! Then it's off to Shawville and Thorne Quebec! Busy Day!

It's a new week and what better way to start it then checking in on Louis and Catherine Laventure! Things are coming along nicely on this 1800's stone. As expected, the black on the top is taking some time to work through, and I expect that will take months. They will get another scrub down this week and then we wait some more!
