Fir Grove Cemetery

Options for traditional burial at Fir Grove Cemetery include in-ground burial in one of the 23 developed areas. We offer single, double and family lots. Most areas accommodate either a flat marker or upright monuments.

Placement of urns on traditional burial spaces is common. Up to two interments are allowed per full sized gravesite. This can be any combination of caskets or urns. This allows families to utilize burial space they many already have available. All burial spaces come with one interment right, a "Second Right of Interment" will need to be purchased for the second casket of urn placement.

Fir Grove Cemetery's newest addition began to take shape in February of 2004. It sits atop a prominent knoll overlooking the cemetery and has a beautiful panoramic view of The Cascades. The Cascade Addition offers families many options for remembering a family member that has been cremated.

Fir Grove Cemetery's Cascade Addition situated on a knoll in a forested setting offers over 700 urn burial spaces. These locations are offered in 2' or 3' square spaces. The larger of the two allows for traditional sized flat markers to be used. Urn placement is a way to integrate contemporary cremation with traditional burial. A lasting tribute for generations to come.

Brilliantly polished granite columbaria provides for the permanent placement and shelter of cremated remains. Fir Grove Cemetery currently has two columbaria installed in our Cascade Addition of the cemetery. The columbaria are located under a forest canopy and well within easy walking distance from the road via paved pathways. Each niche compartment can accommodate up to two urns each and the niche compartment is sealed with a polished granite cover. Each niche allows for the installation of a bronze memorial name plaque and vase ( each sold separately). For Veterans the VA provides a bronze service medallion.  

You can reserve a space today by purchasing the niche in advance of need.

Fir Grove Cemetery in collaboration with their respective cemeteries, also operates and maintains columbarium’s at both Creswell Pioneer Cemetery and Drain City Cemetery. Much like the ones in Fir Grove Cemetery, these Columbaria offer the same features as provided at Fir Grove and are wonderful options for permanent placement of urns

For more information on our columbaria in Creswell and Drain, please contact our office.

Perhaps you have scattered a loved one's cremated remains in a favorite place. Maybe your loved one is buried in another state or cemetery and now you have no local place to go and reflect on memories. Fir Grove Cemetery has a beautiful solid granite "Book of Remembrance" nestled in a natural garden overlooking the valley. Each square has a personalized bronze cenotaph plate with name, year of birth and year of death. This is a perfect, quiet place to visit and remember those special times.

Located on a knoll in beautiful Fir Grove Cemetery is a memorial pathway of individual granite stepping stones. These stones can be placed in memory of a loved one, providing a permanent, local place to reflect on memories and remember a life. These stepping stones wind their way through Fir Grove's, Cascade Cremation Garden leading to a bench where you may sit and reflect on memories while overlooking the valley. Each remembrance is a solid gray granite stone that is naturally designed to last. Engraving and personalization are included with each stone. This is a simple yet permanent way to remember a life lived.

A monument is created to commemorate a life. A memorial bench will satisfy your heart-felt need to honor your loved one. Cremated remains can be placed within a bench if desired. They provide a pleasant place for your family and friends to visit, rest and reflect. A limited number of benches locations have been preselected throughout Fir Grove Cemetery. These beautifully landscaped locations are available with spectacular views of the valley and the Cascades.

From small flat grass markers, to large custom granite monuments, our knowledgeable staff can help you design a lasting tribute, a permanent memorial that will last for generations. Markers are primary constructed out of granite or bronze. Customizing a marker can be a rewarding process, as it allows the family to design a memorial that truly reflects the deceased. Some of the decisions you will need to make are:
1. Choosing a flat marker vs. an upright monument.
2. Choosing the type of granite; color etc.
3. Choosing the size, shape and style.
4. Choosing personalized inscription and design.
Our staff can help you with these decisions by showing you examples and templates that will help you ultimately create your tribute. Markers can be a simple (flat bronze marker) or elaborate (hand-diamond etched full-color pictures) as you desire. Know that this creative process is a wonderful way for your family to be involved in the final care of your loved one.
