Who we are

Celebrating life since 1923

As a proud member of the Gardena community since 1923, we're honored to help families celebrate their loved ones. We pledge to ensure that every funeral and memorial service is deeply personal, fostering healing and remembrance.

Truly an oasis of beauty and serenity in the heart of the city, Roosevelt Memorial Park Cemetery 18 serene acres of green manicured lawns, idyllic tree-lined drives and impressive architectural landmarks from 1923.

The year was 1923.

Today even more to celebrate.

Nestled in Gardena, in the Roosevelt neighborhood, Roosevelt Memorial Park is thriving as a treasured community resource. And since we’re just a short drive from most of Southern California, we’re more valued than ever by so many local residents.

In the community since 1923, we’ve learned a lot about caring for families over the years. We realize that we aren’t just caring for a loved one, but the entire family.

People come to us during their most difficult times, and we respond with kindness, understanding and expertise. Our goal is to make everyone feel at home as we work with them to create a memorable service in honor of a beautiful life. Our bilingual staff is here to help your family every step of the way.

If you have questions or needs, feel free to call us. We would be honored to help.

Our story

Families have preferred Roosevelt Memorial Park before the city of Gardena was incorporated on September 11, 1930 with the blending of rural communities Moneta and Strawberry Park. Founded in 1923, this lovely, gracious Memorial Park in the center of the city offers tree-shaded areas for traditional burial, seven magnificent mausoleums, and a peaceful rose garden for the scattering of cremated remains. What we offer today is superb service, pricing with no surprises and care that’s above and beyond. Whether you need our services right now or are planning for the future, we’re there to help you every step of the way.
