Many San Francisco Bay area families find that cremation meets their family’s needs best. Even if cremation is your loved one’s choice, we always try to stress the importance of establishing a permanent memorial for a loved one. We have found this can be very helpful to the grieving and healing process. An enduring honor to a family member or friend gives those who loved them a place to connect and pay their respects after they’re gone. 

At Sunset View Cemetery, we offer various memorial options designed to reflect your loved one’s individuality and create a lasting remembrance. There are many memorialization options available with cremation, even if you decide to scatter your loved one’s cremated remains in a meaningful location. We can make it possible for you to scatter a portion of the cremated remains while saving the rest to preserve in a beautiful urn that can be displayed in your home. You might also choose to bury a portion of the cremated remains outdoors or place them in a mausoleum.

Those who choose to bury their loved one’s cremated remains can select from beautifully crafted headstones and monuments to engraved plaques. Each memorial can be customized to celebrate your loved one’s unique story. These enduring markers provide a place for family and friends to gather, reflect, and find comfort during future visits.  

Another memorialization option is a columbarium niche, which provides a permanent place loved ones can visit and pay their respects. This wall of recessed spaces holds specifically designed urns of different styles and sizes. Some columbarium niches allow for personal items and have enough space for multiple urns so you can keep your family together for generations to come.

Our compassionate team is here to guide you through the selection process and ensure your memorial perfectly captures the legacy of your loved one. Come to the memorialization experts at Sunset View Cemetery. We can help introduce you to the various memorialization options that are available.
