December 2023 Events

Memory Lane

Dec 4, 2023 09:00 AM to Dec 31, 2023 05:00 PM

If you have a loved one interred at River View, the cemetery will host a “memory lane,” a lantern illuminated pathway in the cemetery for River View families to share the stories of their loved ones by sharing copies of a photo of their loved one or their obituary.

Holiday Service of Remembrance

Dec 9, 2023 01:00 PM to Dec 9, 2023 02:00 PM
We recognize that this time of year is difficult with a flood of memories and feeling of loss that comes when a loved one is not with you for the holidays. Each year we are honored to offer the community an event that is dedicated to the memory of those who
have passed. Rev. Chuck Bonneau will be hosting us through the service and providing comforting seasonal thoughts. You are welcome to come to the event, hang an ornament on our holiday trees.

We will be hosting a non-perishable food, clothing and hygiene product drive for Portland Rescue Mission, please feel to bring some items to add to our barrels.

If you are unable to make it in person, we invite you to send your loved one’s name so that we can light a candle in their memory. You may submit your loved one’s name to katie@riverviewcemetery.org, no later than December 1st.
