Commercial cemetery, funeral home and crematorium on Albion Road in north Etobicoke, operated by Arbor Memorial; address, postal code and the published contact number are taken from the structured data on Arbor's own branch page (the number is Arbor's central line, not a site-specific office number - see caution below). A general cemetery serving all faiths and operating a crematorium, so all_muslim is false. Named as a burial destination on the funeral page of Brampton Makki Masjid (Islamic Society of Peel), which lists it fourth among the cemeteries where "burial arrangement will be accommodated by the Society ... provided the family requesting the service make all the necessary arrangements" (the others being Meadowvale, Glen Oaks, Glenview Memorial Gardens and Beechwood); the Society itself only arranges burials directly at Brampton Memorial Gardens. NOT CONFIRMED and left null: whether Glendale has a designated Muslim section. No mosque page found states one, and Arbor's own site is JavaScript-only and says nothing about faith sections. The Etobicoke Muslim Community Organization publishes a burial-plots page for this cemetery but the site was returning a database error on the day of research and could not be read, so it is not cited here. PHONE CAUTION: public listings show a site-level funeral home number 416-679-1803 and cemetery number 416-675-9489, neither of which could be confirmed on a primary source; only Arbor's own 1-888-700-7766 is recorded. Verify by phone before publishing.
At a glance
Arranging a burial here
- Contact the masjid handling the janazah first — most cemeteries deal with the funeral provider rather than the family directly.
- Ask what the plot costs and, separately, what opening and closing the grave costs. They are almost always billed apart, and the second surprises people.
- Ask whether the section faces qiblah and what markers are permitted.
- See what a Muslim burial costs across Canada before you commit — plot prices vary more than fourfold between cities.
What we haven’t confirmed
We could not establish: whether there is a designated Muslim section, size, whether plots are available. Those are published as gaps rather than filled with a plausible guess. If you know the answer — especially if you are from this organisation — tell us and we will verify and update the listing.
Planning ahead, rather than in a crisis?
The two things a funeral coordinator asks a family for are the burial wishes and the will. Recording where your will is kept and working out the inheritance shares now spares your family both questions at the worst possible moment.
