Every stone at Gravel Lawn tells a story. Some have stood for more than a century while others were placed only recently.

Between those stories are the quiet moments of care that happen every day. Leaves are cleared, flowers are straightened, and flags are replaced. Families stop by and talk softly for a while.

We are proud to keep Gravel Lawn a place where every name is respected and every visit matters.

If you have a loved one here or a memory to share, please tell us in the comments.

Thank you for trusting us to care for this ground.
