Traditional Burial

The time-honored method of interment, in ground burial, involves three components -- the lot, the memorial and the burial vault. Glen Eden requires the use of a burial vault, which maintains the grave and protects the casket. A basic sealing vault meets our requirements, and a vault with a liner, which offers greater protection to the casket, is also acceptable. The lot and memorial are available at Glen Eden; the vault is available through your funeral director.

Glen Eden offers many settings for individual and family lots, which range in price by location or Garden. Lots are available throughout Glen Eden, and the Memorial Parks have large reserves of as yet undeveloped property. Memorials at Glen Eden are all installed level with the lawn. The memorials, which can be personalized to reflect the individuality of the loved one, are bronze, an enduring metal. Today most bronze memorials are installed with a granite base. Glen Eden offers memorials from Matthews Bronze Memorials, the finest and largest manufacturer of bronze in the United States.
