As the holiday season comes to a close, we would like to remind you that our flower pick up schedule is about to return to normal. Flowers that have been decorating your loved one's grave or crypt space will be picked up on either Wednesday, January 7 or Thursday, January 8th, 2026. The day will match your regular day of the week for pickup. Please make sure you have collected any decorations you wish to keep before then. The flower pickup schedule is also available at our website. All of us at Cherokee Memorial hope you have a safe and happy New Year! #2026

Even though the holiday season is here, it still is technically fall here in Lodi. Our funeral assistant snapped this photo today in Garden of Hymns, with our beautiful bright trees reminding us that this is a bright and blustery time of year!

This December 10, 2025 will be a special edition of Growing Through Grief, called Conversations with Last Responders. Get your questions answered about what your funeral and cemetery staff do and why - from the first notification of death until long after services are over. We will have a funeral director and a cemetery counselor available to answer any questions you may have about death. This is NOT a sales presentation, just a chance for conversation. See you at 6pm, December 10, 2025 at Cherokee Memorial Funeral Home.

Cherokee Memorial is pleased to produce and sponsor a variety of events that bring the community together throughout the year.  These events are held in a variety of locations within the park and encourage families to gather and celebrate.
