Cemetery Description: |
"Toronto Hebrew Memorial Parks (THMP) is a not-for-profit Ontario corporation founded in 1972. Run as a business by a corporation, it serves and is owned by the total community in all of its diversity. Pardes Chaim opened in 2010 and is THMP's second cemetery; it comprises two hundred acres with about 70,000 burial lots. In addition to fourteen member organizations which have allotments in the cemetery (expected to increase as organization sections in Pardes Shalom are filled), Pardes Chaim offers whole community sections for the burial of Jews who did not have burial rights through a synagogue or other institution.
In all sections, rows are lettered sequentially from A (at the west edge of the section) eastward and graves are numbered sequentially from 1 (at the south edge of the section) northwards.
Headstone photographs are available for most burials through 2012/2013 (and are in the process of being added to JOWBR). Please contact cemetery@JGSToronto.ca to request a headstone photograph; please provide the decedent's name, cemetery section, and row and grave numbers. Headstone photographs for more recent burials can also be requested at this address and are anticipated to be fulfilled during the summer months.
Pardes Chaim Cemetery is owned by Toronto Hebrew Memorial Parks; telephone: 416-635-5595; e-mail: info@thmp.ca; website: thmp.ca

In 2019, THMP launched its ""THMP Find a Grave"" app (available for iOS and Android) that helps to locate graves at their cemeteries, including GPS directions."
