It's spring in St. Luke's Cemetery and a good to time to visit and see the flowers and blossoms at this time of year.

It's also time to provide an update about upcoming events. While I know that many of you on the e-mail list don't live in the Victoria area, please share this e-mail with family members who live in the area.

The Old Cemeteries Society will hold a tour of St. Luke's Churchyard on May 4th starting at 2 pm.

The tour will feature the stories of the farmers, florists, and gardeners who are resting in St. Luke's Cemetery. If you are a descendant of one of the farmers, florists, or gardeners who is resting in St. Luke's Cemetery and would like to share their story, please talk to Barb Prescott. All of your stories will make for a very interesting tour!

Fee is $5.

Easter Blessings to All!

This year’s Spring Fair will feature plants and garden art, jewellery, antiques and collectibles, crafts and creations, books, toys, home baking, jams and jellies, silent auction, vintage clothing and accessories, white elephant, Mother's Day gifts, and more!

9 am to 10 am will be for Early Bird shoppers, with an entry fee of $10. There will be no charge from 10 am – 2 pm. 

Ample parking. Wheelchair accessible.

We have picked dates in the spring and early summer for some cemetery cleanup mornings.

We will be holding our cemetery cleanups on the second Saturday of the month this year in May, June, and July. The dates will be May 17^th, June 14^th, and July 19^th. The cleanups are usually from 9:00 – 11:30 am. 

Please mark these dates on your calendars. Many hands make light work. If you are able to come, even to help for a short time, your help will be greatly appreciated.

This e-mail list was compiled from contact information St. Luke’s Cemetery Committee has regarding descendants, family members, and friends of people buried in St. Luke’s Cemetery. 

The e-mail list is used to send out newsletters and information about special events regarding the cemetery at various times throughout the year. If you do not wish to be on this list to receive these occasional updates, please reply to this e-mail and let me know and I will take you off the list.

We also encourage you to visit the Cemetery pages of St. Luke's website. Click on the Read More button below. The Cemetery section at the website includes links to a database of veterans buried in St. Luke's Cemetery, stories of the people resting in the cemetery, and a database with names and plot locations.
