Honouring legacy in a serene setting.
Entombment
A Permanent, Protected Place of Rest
Entombment is the placement of a casket in an above-ground mausoleum, offering families a sheltered, permanent resting place for their loved one. For families who prefer above-ground interment, McCall Gardens works exclusively with Royal Oak Burial Park in Victoria, which has the only mausoleum facility on South Vancouver Island.
Entombment Service Options
Entombment places a casketed body in a crypt within a mausoleum structure, rather than below ground. The crypt is then sealed, and a memorial marker or nameplate is affixed. McCall Gardens coordinates entombment services in partnership with Royal Oak Burial Park, which operates the only mausoleum on Vancouver Island. Our funeral directors handle all arrangements, from transportation to final placement, ensuring the process is handled with complete care and dignity.
