Maurice Delmonte, beloved entertainer & artist

Help us make things right and follow through on Maurice’s burial wishes.

If you knew (or knew of) Maurice Delmonte, you were of the lucky people to understand how someone could embody art and entertainment. He was born to perform and made it his life’s work.

In his later years, Maurice cared tenderly for the grave site of his wife and mother who he intended to be buried with.

Unfortunately, due to a miscommunication with the government, Maurice was not laid to rest in his desired plot or even in his home town of Zwanenburg.

His family in Canada is fundraising to cover the costs associated with having his casket moved from Zwaanshoek to satisfy his wishes of being buried with his loved ones. The move will take place on June 24th with a memorial to follow on June 25th, 2024.
