Wildwood Cemetery has prided itself on offering multiple interment options in an otherwise limited field. Below are some of our offerings, alongside an explanation of what each entails.
The cemetery is divided into halves- the East and West sides. Each side is then divided further into sections, and each section into lots. Then, a lot is divided up into individual grave spaces. For example, Peter Herdic is buried in Lot 1296 of Section C West, Grave Space unspecified.
Traditional Graves
A traditional grave is what most think of when they talk about graves: at Wildwood, they range in size from 3 1/2 to 5 feet in width and 8 1/2 to 10 feet in length. Size differences in lots can be attributed to what was common for the era in which the lot was planned and developed. Traditional grave spaces can accommodate one full casket as well as up to three urns. The price includes the grave and perpetual care.
Cremation Graves
A cremation grave is similar in size to a traditional grave; these graves are solely for cremations due to spacing or soil variances. These graves can accommodate up to three urns. The price includes the grave and perpetual care.
Green Burial Graves
A Green Burial grave is 5 feet wide by 10 feet long. It is larger than a typical Traditional grave to allow for extra room between burials, so as not to disturb adjacent burials that are unprotected by a vault. The price includes the grave and perpetual care.
Niche Cabinets
Another interment option for cremations is a niche cabinet; essentially an 11-inch cube of space within a shoulder-height granite cabinet that can accommodate 1-3 urns. Niches are marked with either a laser-engraved granite faceplate or bronze placards, depending on which unit you should purchase. This price includes the marker, documentation in our records, and perpetual care.

Crypt Mausoleum
Wildwood Cemetery offers community crypts at its Praying Hand Mausoleum section of the cemetery. A crypt can accommodate one full casket and multiple urns at the cemetery manager’s discretion. This price includes the documentation in our records and perpetual care.
The Pursell Cremorial
The Pursell is an all-in-one burial unit with a laser-engraved granite marker. You could say it’s an in-ground, personal niche cabinet. This product includes everything: burial space, marker, perpetual care, and opening fee when purchased at need in our Pursell section. This price includes the marker, documentation in our records, perpetual care, and the opening fee if purchased at need.
Traditional Cremorial
The Traditional Cremorial is a burial unit with a bronze marker mounted on a granite base. This product includes: burial space, marker, and perpetual care in our Garden of Memories section. Normally, this is purchased pre-need, but can be purchased at-need. This price includes the marker documentation in our records and perpetual care.
The Trailsend Scattering Garden
The Trailsend scattering garden is an ideal option for those on a budget or who would like to conveniently visit the resting place of their loved one. It’s a lovely trail that flows through the woods in West Wildwood. This includes a small marker at the trail entrance, documentation in our records, and perpetual care.
The Forever-glades Scattering Garden
The Forever-glades scattering garden is located in East Wildwood in our Green Burial section. It includes everything that the Trailsend scattering area does, but it is a meadow environment rather than a wooded trail environment. This includes a small marker at the meadow entrance, documentation in our records, and perpetual care.
