A few small signs often indicate it's a good time to have a memorial professionally cleaned before fall sets in.

☐ Dark staining or discoloration on the surface
☐ Visible buildup in engraved lettering
☐ A dull or faded appearance compared to nearby memorials
☐ Moss or algae forming along the base

Addressing these signs before the season changes can help preserve the memorial's appearance for years to come. Reach out to Eglington Cemetery to learn more about our memorial power washing services.

A 19th-century burial record often reveals details that modern records rarely capture — handwritten notes, family relationships, and even small clues about a person's life beyond just dates. Those older records sometimes hold information that's been lost everywhere else, making them surprisingly valuable for tracing family history.

Have you ever uncovered an old family record that revealed something you didn't expect?

Did you know? Environmental researchers have found that quiet, natural green spaces — including parks and memorial grounds — can measurably lower cortisol levels and promote mental recovery. Cemeteries, with their open landscaping and peaceful surroundings, are among the environments that consistently produce these effects.

Have you ever noticed a shift in how you feel after spending time in a quiet outdoor space?
