The CSIS National Memorial Cemetery
A memorial to those who served courageously in the shadows
The CSIS National Memorial Cemetery is an outward appreciation of the service of the CSIS
and its current and former employees.
The CSIS National Memorial Cemetery was created by the tri-partnership between CSIS, the
Pillar Society and Beechwood Cemetery Foundation. Over the course of the next few years,
the CSIS National Memorial Cemetery will be building a memorial monument that will honour
all current and former CSIS employees. CSIS NMC will have significant enhancements
including flagpoles, pathways and beautiful landscaping.
The CSIS National Memorial Cemetery will be a place of national commemoration for current
and former CSIS employees and all Canadians.
The men and women of CSIS, like their predecessors in the RCMP Security Service, have
served Canada, the Canadian people and Canadian interests overseas, since the mid 1940’s.
They have gone about their work quietly, without public recognition and expecting none. The
men and women of CSIS and the Pillar Society now have a final, dignified resting place,
hallowed ground where family, friends and other Canadians may pay their respects, within the
shadow of the Peace Tower. They are honoured to rest in the company of the Canadian
Forces, RCMP and Ottawa Police Service.
For they have all dedicated
their lives to Canada and the
Canadian people and have
contributed greatly to
making Canada the
wonderful country that it is.
The CSIS National Memorial
Cemetery , to our
knowledge, is the only
Western intelligence service
that has a dedicated national
memorial cemetery
dedicated to its employees.

Top 5 Reasons to Preplan Your Funeral
1 .You want to ease the burden on your family and loved ones.
• If your wishes are unknown when you die, they will be faced with making
difficult decisions at a trying time. Will they know if you wish to be buried or
cremated? Will they agree on an open or closed casket? Will they agree on
how much to spend? Confusion and disagreements are common occurrences
when there is no plan to follow. You can avoid this by leaving behind a plan.
2. You want your family to have the benefit of a meaningful funeral.
• A funeral is an important event for a grieving family. Psychologically, it
provides a sense of closure and enables the family to begin the healing process.
Families benefit emotionally and socially by honouring the lives of their loved
ones with a fitting ceremony and by giving them a proper send off. It is difficult
to make the funeral the best it can be when planning it in a short time.
3. You want your final wishes to be followed.
• If you have specific preferences for the disposition of your remains and the
nature of your funeral services, you can clearly express them in your funeral
plan. You may have a preference for burial or cremation, the epitaph on your
headstone, or the music and readings at your funeral. Or you may not want a
funeral ceremony. Whatever your wishes, they need to be set forth in your
funeral plan.
4. You want to be self-reliant and have your affairs in order at the end of your life.
• Taking care of your funeral arrangements is a thoughtful and caring thing to
do for your family. It is comforting to know that you have done all you can do
to ease their burden. And you can be assured that they will appreciate that
your caring for them continued after you are gone.
5. You want to assume the financial responsibility for your funeral.
• Planning ahead allows you to make financial arrangements to cover your
funeral costs. Even if you are leaving behind sufficient money, will your
survivors be able to access it? Preplanning provides you with sound financial
planning options you can consider ahead of time.

Your interest in the CSIS National Memorial Cemetery
Dear Member;
Thank you for your interest in the CSIS National Memorial Cemetery, at Beechwood
Cemetery.
There are many single and two grave locations available and all locations are extra
depth allowing 2 traditional casket burial per grave. We also allow up to 8 urns per
grave to be interred in all traditional graves.
All traditional locations will allow for a single upright family monument. A single sized
monument will generally hold up to 2-3 names and a two grave monument as many as
6-8 as the additional 8 inches of width allows us to accommodate more information on
one line.
All monuments must have the CSIS crest to the top of the monument and can
accommodate other crests as long as they are not larger than the CSIS crest.
We will have a number of cremation lots with each location accommodating 2 urns per
lot. This location will use an angled Pillow style monument in black granite with room
for the CSIS crest and 2 names. The Beechwood Cemetery will retain $300 from every
land sale within the section and this will go toward the central monument.
To show our commitment to the community, we are offering:
• 5% discount for purchasing in advance of need.
• an additional 5% if paying in full at time of signing.
• 10% discount off retail price for monuments.
Our rates will be reviewed and updated on an annual basis beginning January of each
year but families will still enjoy nearly 25% off Beechwood’s regular rates.
We look forward to serving the CSIS community for many generations to come. If you
have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.
Thank you
