Evergreen Burial Park

Specialties

Evergreen Burial Park is a family owned cemetery offering a variety of interment options including mausoleum entombment and cremation arrangements.

Over the years we have made improvements and added new programs mindful of changing needs and traditions but always with the care and comfort of the families we serve as our guiding principal.

We are pleased so many residents of the adjoining Raleigh Court and Wasena neighborhoods walk, jog, and stroll our wide paved roads much like they would any park, but always with respect to those who rest here

History

Established in 1916.

Evergreen Burial Park began in 1916 in what was then Roanoke County. The cemetery was designed by the Hare and Hare design firm of Kansas City, Missouri, a renowned cemetery design firm of its day.

Governor Lindsey Almond, Jr. rests here as do numerous founding families of Roanoke and fifteen mayors of the city.
