Cemetery

  

The Village of Chase operates the Chase Cemetery located on Foothills Road, offering traditional in-ground burial for both casket and cremated remains. We offer services for when a death occurs and accommodate those planning a placement for the future.

Burial & Cremation Options

Deciding how to memorialize the loss of someone is emotional and can be overwhelming. Choices can be guided by past family tradition, religious practice, cultural considerations, and personal preference. There are many ways to be memorialized. Here are options offered by the Village of Chase:

  • Casket Service Options
  • Cremation Service Options
  • Monument Regulations
  • Memorial Options

Administration and Visiting Hours

Administration of the cemetery is managed by Village staff at the Village Office (826 Okanagan Avenue) during regular business hours, excluding statutory holidays.
