Instead of having time to mourn and reflect when a loved one passes away, family members are often bombarded with difficult decisions and planning responsibilities. At Greenlawn Memorial Gardens and Cemetery, we offer a wide variety of pre-arrangement options so you can ensure your wishes are met. Pre-planning allows you to make the decisions for your burial in a calm and relaxed manner.

We have experience handling a variety of special services, including those for firefighters, police and military for service members throughout Hampton Roads.

Rather than leaving the guess work to family during a difficult time, planning ahead ensures that you receive the exact type of service and memorial location you desire.  It also saves money, giving you the ability to purchase over time. Family members of those who have passed often consider a pre-arranged burial a gift of love. It frees them of financial and planning burdens during a time when their moments should be spent remembering you and tending to the emotional needs of loved ones.

Payment Options
At Greenlawn Memorial Gardens, we know that every person’s plans and financial situation are unique. We will specially design a plan to fit your needs, whether you’re arranging for an immediate need or planning for the future.

Greenlawn Services
We offer a wide variety of services and options for burial in our beautiful western Chesapeake cemetery, just minutes from Suffolk and Portsmouth, including ground burial, mausoleums and the placement of cremated remains. Many people who come to plan a burial have never considered many of the questions that arise during the arrangement process:

• Will the person be buried or cremated?
• If cremated, what will the family do with the ashes?
• If they’re placed in an urn, where will the urn be 100 years from now?
• A mausoleum? A home?
• If scattered, would you like a memorial headstone for family to visit?
• What will the headstone look like?
• Will you plan to have the person’s spouse memorialized beside them?

As you can see, planning a memorial can be quite complicated and overwhelming. Fortunately, our cemetery staff  has the knowledge and experience to gently guide you through the decision-making process, while making sure your desires are met and your budget considered.

Call us at (757) 488-2546 or fill out the form on our website, and we’ll set up a visit at our Chesapeake location or even in your Hampton Roads home to discuss the options at your convenience. We’re conveniently located and ideal for visitation, just minutes from Suffolk, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Norfolk.
