Memorial Park Cemetery
Memorial Park Cemetery distinguishes itself from other cemeteries with floral arrangements and plantings that make it a peaceful place to visit. Our lagoons provide a sanctuary for swans and ducks that add to the beauty of the park. The lovely cremation garden located in the west portion of the park impresses visitors with a story of life. Our broad lawns are artistically landscaped with an abundance of magnificent shrubbery, evergreens and flowers that make it a place where one may meditate, reflect and worship. The Memorial Park Mausoleum and columbarium exhibits beautiful stained glass windows complimented by marble wall and floors from many parts of the world. The main chapel and Chapel of Peace display ceilings that are hand painted and stain glass windows that lend to the atmosphere of quiet dignity and beauty. Also, located on the grounds is a functional greenhouse that provides many of the flowers for the plantings throughout the park. The Memorial Park Greenhouse displays a variety of planting selections and winter decorations that add to the beauty of individual family spaces. Weekly floral bouquets are also available for purchase that can be placed anywhere in the cemetery. The staff at Memorial Park is knowledgeable and has many years of experience to assist families with preneed and immediate need arrangements. Memorial Park Cemetery is open 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Please contact us if you need immediate assistance, or if you would like more information about our services.

Many thanks to staff at Memorial Park Cemetery in helping me locate burial sites
Deanna Desimone was so helpful when we were trying to find if one of our ancestors was buried at Memorial Park. When nothing came up on her first try looking for the plot number, , she suggested trying a different spelling of the first name. It worked. Everything matched. She emailed us maps with exact locations specified of our lost relative plus other family members that we knew were buried at Memorial Park. When we arrived after hours at the cemetery, it was easy to locate the graves using her maps. We are forever grateful that we were able to visit the graves so easily Also, the cemetery is so beautifully maintained. The next day when we visited, the caretakers working nearby even loaned us a tool to use to prune a plant at one of the graves.

Serene setting
This is a very peaceful cemetery, well kept in summer and winter. The staff isn't always the friendliest, but they are competent and are willing to assist if help is needed. Not sure if they still have graves available for purchase.
