From the Township of Lake of Bays
This week, the Township of Lake of Bays installed a new columbarium at Paint Lake Cemetery in Dorset. It is the third columbarium available across the Township.
The columbarium is located within the Paint Lake Cemetery, a historic site that has served Dorset’s early settlers. It provides above-ground interment options for families wishing to honour their loved ones in a tranquil place deeply rooted in local history.
The first known burial at Paint Lake Cemetery was Zachariah Cole, a settler who died in 1873.
