Our Cemetery

Montlawn offers many types of unique and personalized options to commemorate the lives of loved ones and to help ensure that legacies will endure for generations to come.

Since its founding in 1932, families of the Raleigh community have embraced Montlawn Memorial Park as one of the area's finest and most beautiful resting places.

Tradition echoes throughout the park's lawns and gardens. A serene lake offers Montlawn visitors a quiet haven for reflection and remembrance. Visitors often come just to feed the park's ducks and geese.
