After the passing of a loved one, many families choose cremation as the final form of disposition. Often, the cremated remains are brought home—kept in a special place, held close as a source of comfort, remembrance, and love. This is a meaningful and personal choice, especially in the early days of grief.

However, as time passes, families often begin to reflect on the lasting legacy of their loved one. They may wonder where the remains should ultimately rest, how future generations will honor their memory, and where they themselves can go to feel close to the one they’ve lost. For many, the answer becomes clear: a permanent, sacred space at a memorial park.

At Forest Lawn, we offer a wide range of beautiful, serene, and dignified options for the interment of cremated remains. Whether in a niche, indoor columbarium, a garden, or a traditional burial space, these settings provide a peaceful environment for reflection, remembrance, and connection.

Choosing to place cremated remains at a Forest Lawn Memorial Park ensures that your loved one’s legacy is preserved in a place of honor—surrounded by beauty, history, and care. It also provides friends and family with a shared space to gather, celebrate, and remember, not just now, but for generations to come.
