About Buffam & Leveille Funeral Home
In the Temiskaming communities of Haileybury, New Liskeard, and Englehart, the connection to the outdoors runs deep. When families started asking for ways to incorporate nature into remembrance, Buffam & Leveille wanted to offer something truly meaningful — and Ashes to Earth™ gave them that option.

Why we offer Ashes to Earth™
A NOTE FROM BUFFAM & LEVEILLE FUNERAL HOME"In our community, the connection to the outdoors is strong. When families asked us for ways to incorporate nature into their remembrance, we wanted to provide something truly meaningful. AWAKE allows us to offer a beautiful, environmentally thoughtful option that helps families create a lasting, living legacy."
HOW IT WORKSAshes to Earth™ patented soil science transforms cremated remains into plant-friendly earth. Removing the alkaline toxicity that prevents growth and replacing it with nutrients that help new life flourish.
The result is a living memorial: a tree, a garden, a potted plant — something that grows and changes with the seasons, that you can return to, tend, and share.

“After 5+ years on my dresser, my beloved’s ashes now are supporting this beautiful Maple with leaves in all the colours he loved. Every time I walk by it there is a peacefulness that warms my heart.”
