Our history

  • An innovative company - 100% from Quebec

    An innovative company - 100% from Quebec

    In 2003, Jocelyne Dallaire Légaré, from a family of funeral entrepreneurs in Montreal, created MEMORIA. A pioneer in funeral rituals in Quebec, the company continues to develop new ideas and innovate, whether it be in bereavement (such as Lundis-causerie and Art-therapy) and estate-assistance services, new-and-improved funeral home designs, or "green" initiatives such as the Jardin des mémoires and biodegradable urns made of ice. Today MEMORIA comprises 10 complexes, each a harmonious mix of modernity and calm, rooted in tradition.

    In 2023, the company joined the Athos Memorial Services group, the largest private network of funeral complexes in Quebec, in order to expand its range of services and meet the expectations of its clientele. Today MEMORIA remains a 100-per-cent Quebec enterprise.

    Everywhere it has a funeral home, MEMORIA continues to serve families with the same respect and compassion it has shown since its very early days, helping a wide variety of communities in their time of need.
