BUSINESS CLOSURE ANNOUNCEMENT

It is with a heavy heart that I announce that Garden City Funerals & Cremations (formerly Patrick J. Darte Funeral Chapel) has closed its doors in downtown St. Catharines. We have now ceased operations and are winding down our business.

We want you to know that this decision was not taken lightly. The challenges of operating downtown, the rising costs of maintaining our facility, and the changing needs of families have all played a role.

To the families who have trusted us with pre-arrangements,  please rest assured that your plans, and any funding you have put in place, are secure and have been safely transferred to Darte Family Funeral and Cremation Centre (George Darte Funeral Home), a respected provider in our community. Your wishes will be honoured exactly as intended. If you have any questions, you may reach George Darte directly at (905) 937-4444.

We are also in the process of finding a new home for the obituary archive from our website and will communicate the details once plans are finalized. Until then past notices will continue to be available here.

Though this chapter is closing, my dedication to serving families with compassion and care remains as strong as ever and my future is committed to funeral service. But, for today, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for your trust and support over these years.

Sincerely

Bryce Giroux
Owner & Managing Director
