Our Columbarium

Families find solace and peace of mind with our spacious affordable niches within our Columbarium.

The structure of the Columbarium is crafted from materials such as marble and granite. It stands as a timeless monument, offering both a sacred space for remembrance and a haven for the cherished remains of those who have passed.

The Columbarium at Greenwood Cemetery is surrounded by Humboldt County’s majestic redwood trees, beautiful florals and a coastal ocean breeze; including manicured premises. Give us a call at (707) 822-1662 so that we may answer all your questions.

Graveside Services

Greenwood Cemetery offers graveside services for urn burials, as well as services alongside the columbarium niche for urn placement. Greenwood communicates with families to provide the setup of chairs, turf around the urn burial site, placement of florals, speaker podium and table setup to place urn. Greenwood partners with local funeral homes that perform official funeral services. While graveside service is most popular sometimes due to weather changes, we also perform setup in the chapel where family and friends can gather to pay tribute to their loved one.
