Since 1969, Jardim da Saudade Group has been a pioneer in funeral services in the South region of Brazil, offering the concept of cemetery park. The first enterprise of the Group was Parque Jardim da Saudade Curitiba, idealized by the engineer Jayme Matzenbacher, and had its Foundation Stone laid in the same year, with the illustrious presence of the football player Pelé (RIP).
