Fallbrook Masonic Cemetery takes care of history and the future

FALLBROOK – The newest statue erected in Fallbrook Masonic Cemetery is called the Queen of Angels Guardian of Children statue. It is located within the newest section of the cemetery, Hiram Gardens, in a lovely park-like setting.

The garden offers a single pillar for one interment, the companion boulder is ideal for two interments and the multi-niche option for a family memorial. The cemetery gardens provide peaceful resting places as well as a place for family and friends to remember and reflect for generations to come.

Over the years, the cemetery has grown and provided options for such important remembrance. It is still one of the few cemeteries in Southern California to offer vertical as well as horizontal headstones with six locations for cremated remains to be interned.

This new section of the cemetery features the installation of granite columbarium niches that are for above ground interment of cremation urns. In continuing with the concept of giving options to the community, the cemetery made sure that the light gray granite monuments are accompanied by black engravable panels so every memorial can be customized to represent the loved one’s history.

Since 1917, the residents of Fallbrook have understood the need for a better future. From the moment the Fallbrook Masonic Cemetery opened to the public, it has maintained the principles of promoting the community by humbly remembering the loved ones that shaped the past.

Just like the beautiful natural landscape that flows through town, the monuments and markers at the cemetery are done in a manner that all the community can enjoy.

For anyone who has not visited the cemetery before or just have not been there in a while, it is well worth the stop. The history of Fallbrook rests within its gates, and it is open to the public. In a time when peace and quiet reflection seem so far away, this serene spot nestled in the heart of Fallbrook could be a great place to make plans for the future and beyond.
