Our annual tree dedication program creates living memorials through community planting events. Each year we plant a tree in Portage la Prairie with engraved benches listing loved ones' names. This program provides a lasting, growing tribute in a peaceful garden setting while fostering community connections through shared remembrance.

We unreserably recommend McKenzies for their compassion & care to grieving families. McKenzie staff do not encourage or pressure for services beyond what families request. Our family will continue to use the services of McKenzies Funeral Home.

Heartfelt thanks to Mackenzie Portage Funeral Chapel for their excellent customer care. When I called to find out where the tree is planted in memory of my Mom, Amy met me and my sister Pamela Bradley Weir, and helped us find the tree. So grateful for your assistance! We love that you plant trees every year, and are so happy to know where Mom’s tree is since we couldn’t come to the planting ceremony.

Once my dad passed away and I was no longer able to care for him Jeff and the amazing staff at McKenzie were there too. The support was unimaginable and through our time of grief they were always there. I cannot express enough how much comfort I had knowing McKenzie's was taking care of my dad.
