Marie-Anne Risdon

2025

The ashes of Marie-Anne Risdon were gently rooted today at La Forêt de la Seconde Vie, in Ste-Sophia. This gesture imbued with respect and serenity symbolizes our attachment to nature and the deep love we have for it.

Through this last return to land, Marie-Anne joins the cycle of life in a peaceful and lively place, faithful to her values. In this way, she will continue to be part of the world she cherished so much.

She, who loved trees so much, will find roots there, in the heart of a forest where their quiet strength, their wisdom and their deep roots remind us of what she herself embodied.

His memory will live on in each of the trees that surround him, in the wind that caresses the leaves, and in our hearts forever.

Take root in your lifetime | Second Life Forest

Ecoforest cemetery

The Forest of the Second Life is a Ecoforest cemetery; an alternative solution to traditional funeral homes that allows you to contribute to the creation of forests, in tribute to the memory of your loved ones and for the benefit of future generations.

Unique concept in Quebec

We are up to date The only location in Quebec, among all those who have the necessary authorizations for the burial of the ashes, to have added to our project a forest conservation easement to ensure, forever, the preservation and protection of the forest.

Future generations

Our alternative funeral services allow you to pay tribute to your deceased by allowing them to dedicate their second life to the benefit of the next generations. The reforestation initiative The Second Life Forest makes it possible to capture up to 175 tons of carbon from the atmosphere each year.
