From India’s Taj Mahal to the grand Pyramids of Egypt, the mausoleum is a time-honored custom of above-ground interment.  People of different ages and faiths, from all walks of life, are realizing the wisdom and dignity of selecting a mausoleum as their final resting place.
 
  • A Mausoleum is a dignified and everlasting memorial to your family.
  • Above-ground mausoleum property is clean, dry, and ventilated.  It is the most dignified and everlasting method of interment.

  • Built of granite and reinforced concrete to last through the ages. Perpetual Care is assured by irrevocable trust funds administered by a local bank. Above-ground entombment is accepted by families of all religious faiths. By purchasing your mausoleum before the need arises, you reduce estate taxes, eliminate the need for other memorials and avoid costly vaults and expenses of under ground burial.  All of the factors combine to make the cost of the above-ground mausoleum entombment comparable to that of the traditional burial.

The cost of mausoleum is comparable to, or in some cases less expensive than, traditional ground burial.

The new section of Linwood Cemetery is our Mausoleum Garden of Tranquility.  It is an inspiring addition to the memorial architecture of the cemetery.  We were very careful to select the finest materials available in order to provide a prominent, lasting tribute to those entombed within the mausoleum.  We are proud to say it is not only a fine memorial, but also a beautiful place to visit and spend time thinking of the deceased.  The building has 240 casket spaces.
