How do I find a specific grave?
Patrons can visit the Cemetery office to obtain a map to a specific grave.  Office hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding City holidays.  Maps can also be provided through mail, e-mail and fax.  Unfortunately, names of deceased are not available on-line yet.  An outside kiosk is also a pending project.  Office staff can be contacted using the following options:

Cemetery.info@cityofmesa.org
Phone:  480-644-2335
Fax:      480-644-3190

 

What is the availability of graves and what is the cost?
The City of Mesa Cemetery still has gravesites available for sale in Heritage Garden, which is the section West of 12th Street, near the Country Club Drive entrance.  This section allows only flat markers.  All other sections of the cemetery are sold out.

Costs for graves can be found on our Fees page. 

Note:  Owners very rarely return graves to the Cemetery.  Any private sales can be found in the newspaper or on websites such as gravesolutions.com.

 

What decorations can be placed on the grave?
Decorations can be placed on a grave, niche, or urn garden; however, they must be placed in an approved, permanent flower vase.  All other decorations are subject to removal  AT ANY TIME for maintenance and safety purposes.  The only exceptions are funeral arrangements and certain holiday decorations. 

Glass, fences and plantings (including sod) are strictly prohibited.  Holiday arrangements are allowed only on the following holidays and will be removed 10 days after the holiday:  Christmas, Easter, Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, Father’s Day and Veteran’s Day.

 

What do I do if the earth around a monument or on a grave is settling?
Contact office staff and they will process a work order to backfill the grave or raise and level the monument. 

 

What cremation options does the cemetery provide?
Two cremation urns can be interred in one grave, niche, or urn garden.  Cremains can also be scattered in a designated area at the Rose Garden.  The niches, urn garden and scattering garden are located North of the office.  Costs for cremation options can be found on our Fees page.

 

How do I purchase a monument for a grave?
A monument can be ordered through any monument company or mortuary.  Companies can be located through the phone book.  The City of Mesa Cemetery installs all monuments and foundations.
