Members of Warsaw Lodzer receive a guarantee of space in Pardes Chaim Cemetery in Vaughan, within the grounds dedicated to the organization.
Toronto is a growing city, and interment space is in high demand. It has never been more important to plan ahead, especially for young families who want to ensure future generations have access to Jewish burial in our community.
Established in 2010, Pardes Chaim Cemetery is located at 11818 Bathurst St. in Vaughn, and run by Toronto Hebrew Memorial Parks.
Warsaw Lodzer members are welcomed at biannual breakfast meetings to connect with the Jewish community of Toronto.
Historically, Warsaw Lodzer was the heart of a community for new Jewish immigrants to Toronto and their families. Weekly or monthly meetings, breakfasts, banquets, dances and summer picnics allowed immigrants to speak Yiddish or Polish, share news from Europe, and preserve hometown traditions.
Today, we keep the community tradition alive by meeting twice every year to share a table.
On request, Warsaw Lodzer offers members assistance, information, and support for end-of-life planning.
Jewish traditions and rituals are a valuable link to our legacy and past. Events can move quickly when we lose a loved one, pre-planning is the best way to maintain tradition, alleviate stress to loved ones and friends, and allow a family to be truly present and together in a time of loss.
Warsaw Lodzer members benefit from our pre-negotiated prices for burial and interment services.
Our grounds in Pardes Chaim Cemetery guarantees a place close to home to memorialize our family, loved ones, and members of our community with respect, while honouring Jewish traditions and rituals.
Our members have the opportunity to guarantee access, and steady, reasonable prices to take these planning and financial responsibilities off the family’s shoulders at a time of loss.
We are currently welcoming new members and encouraging the next generation to learn more about the importance of securing interment rights early. By becoming a member, you help preserve an important communal legacy while protecting your family’s future needs.
Annual Membership Fee: $90
