Granite Niches

Our beautiful columbarium options at Woodlawn provide permanent places for loved ones to pay their respects in a beautiful and serene setting. Columbarium niches can be personalized with granite, marble, or walnut fronts for beautiful memorial tributes. Granite niches are available in our Garden Conservatory Mausoleum as well as our new Hillcrest Mausoleum Complex and Knollwood Mausoleum.

Glass-Front Niches

Our glass-front niches, located inside the Garden Conservatory Mausoleum and new Knollwood Mausoleum, allow for beautiful, personalized tributes. The urn containing the cremated remains is placed inside the niche and surrounded by photos, cherished mementos, and items which best depict the life of a loved one. By choosing a glass-front niche, a family is able to create a meaningful tribute while enjoying a quiet, secure, climate-controlled, and comfortable atmosphere to pay their respects.

Family Niches and Personalized Cremation Memorials

Built to personal specifications, family niches are designed to hold the cremated remains of one or more individuals. These memorials are an ideal option for those who choose cremation but still want a traditional, meaningful, and lasting tribute.

At Woodlawn, you can select ground property and work with the monument dealer of your choice to design a memorial that reflects your family’s vision. Whether it’s a custom memorial bench, private niche, or other unique structure, we provide the space and flexibility to create a truly personal place of remembrance in a peaceful, dignified setting.

Brookside Cremation Garden

Our Brookside Cremation Garden includes landscape niches nestled into the natural rock alongside the running brook or tucked into the wall of the bridge that spans the stream. Offering both in- ground and above-ground burial of cremated remains, niches are blended into the landscape or are nestled into natural rock alongside a running brook.

COMMUNAL SCATTERING

Cremated remains may also be scattered in a communal receptacle known as an ossuary within the Brookside Cremation Garden. A bronze name plaque placed on a wall near the ossuary permanently memorializes the individual.
