Shadow Mountain Mortuary

Shadow Mountain Mortuary, located at 2350 East Greenway Road in Phoenix, Arizona, has been a cornerstone of compassionate care in the Valley of the Sun for nearly five decades. Founded in 1974 by Lee Scott, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran of the Korean War, the mortuary was built on a foundation of service excellence and deep community involvement. Scott and his team were active in numerous local organizations, including hospital boards, the chamber of commerce, Rotary International, and Masonic Lodge #61. They also provided funeral services to fallen police officers, often at no cost to their families. In keeping with its founding values, Shadow Mountain Mortuary eventually joined the Dignity Memorial network, allowing it to offer expanded resources while maintaining its legacy of personalized care.

The mortuary is one of the larger funeral chapels in Phoenix, seating up to 200 guests with flexible configurations for intimate or large gatherings. A dedicated reception room and on-site catering services allow families to host everything from a formal sit-down dinner to a casual buffet, creating a seamless experience for before or after services. The facility is wheelchair accessible with free on-site parking.

Shadow Mountain Mortuary specializes in creating personalized funerals and memorials that celebrate each individual’s unique passions and personality. From displaying collections of paintings or quilts to organizing themed gatherings with live bands or dove releases, the team works closely with families to craft tributes that warm hearts and honor legacies. They also offer a full range of cremation services, including simple cremation, cremation followed by a memorial service, and unique options like scattering ashes, underwater cremation at Neptune Memorial Reef, or even memorial spaceflight via Celestis. All-inclusive pricing ensures transparency and peace of mind.

The mortuary is proud to serve veterans, arranging military funeral honors and burial benefits through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
