Riverside Cemetery & Cremation Centre, Etobicoke Reviews (2)
I purchased a niche in 2007 to be near my parents in the chapel. In 2014 I found out that they sold it. I have the original deed to this niche. A Mr. Robert Holloway of Parklawn corporation and the Bereavement Authority of Ontario have acknowledged this. I can't imagine what my daughter would've gone through at my time of death and proceeded to arrange for me to be in the niche by my parents only to find it occupied. Thank God I made the inquiry.
I have both my great grandfather and great grandmother and also a great aunt in this cemetery and while I was paying my respects one day I noticed that there was a child riding threw the cemetery on his bike and all over the grave sites. I was not at all impressed by this. It seems to me that the neighbors near by just let their children do as they please unsupervised while they tend to other things.
I don't appreciate this at all and would really appreciate it if people would have some respect.

Riding threw on the path is one thing, but on the grave sites!! That's terrible. Maybe mention something to the management next time you get a chance. They can keep an eye out for this type of behavior!!
So you give the cemetery a bad review because someone's small child does not understand what he has done? Sounds like the parents need a talking to.

Riverside’s chapel opened at the same time as the crematorium. It is a peaceful place where many people visit for quiet reflection.
