GRAVE ESCORT POLICY

At Mt. Glenwood Memorial Gardens, we are pleased to provide all family members with burial site locations recorded in our cemetery records. Feel free to ask one of our customer service representatives for this information to maintain in your family records. Grave locations are intended for personal family records and not for online public indexes. It is at the discretion of the legal next of kin to decide whether to share that information publicly.

Sections in Mt. Glenwood Cemetery are clearly marked with signs for your convenience, and there is an overall cemetery map available in the information box located at the cemetery entrance.

We offer either a personal escort or grave survey of a burial site for up to one year after the burial, allowing you time to familiarize yourself with your loved one’s resting site at Mt. Glenwood Memory Gardens, as well as ample time to order and install your memorial headstone. Without a memorial headstone, it may be challenging to locate the exact burial site on your own.

Please understand that it is impossible for our grounds staff to continually survey unmarked burial sites. Our staff is focused on maintaining the cemetery and providing burial services. It is the responsibility of the family or lot owner to provide a headstone for locating the grave during visits. Escorts for burials less than one year old are provided at the discretion of the cemetery before 2:00 pm Monday to Friday, provided there are no services and staff availability. Escorts are not available during winter months or inclement weather.

If you do not have a memorial placed for locating the burial site at Mt. Glenwood Cemetery Illinois, please feel free to inquire with our customer service staff about memorial headstones. Interest-free financing is available on most memorial selections, and you are welcome to purchase your memorial from any monument company of your choosing.
