Green Acres Memorial Park & Mortuary

Green Acres Memorial Park & Mortuary, located at 11715 Cedar Avenue in Bloomington, California, has been a cornerstone of compassionate end-of-life care in San Bernardino County for decades. Developed in the 1950s by Henry Maag, Green Acres Memorial Park was conceived as a park-like cemetery, a novel approach at the time, featuring lush lawns and a variety of beautifully manicured gardens. Unlike many cemeteries built in phases, Green Acres was constructed all at once, allowing for grave sites to be available throughout its 60 acres of serene property. In 1973, Green Acres Mortuary was built on the grounds, creating a unified location where families can conveniently arrange all aspects of a funeral, memorial, and burial or cremation service.

Today, Green Acres Memorial Park & Mortuary offers a comprehensive range of services, including traditional funerals, cremations, and burial options. The mortuary is dedicated to honoring diverse traditions and personalizing each service to reflect the unique life of the deceased. Their light-filled, non-denominational chapel seats up to 180 guests and is equipped with two 55-inch flat-screen televisions for multimedia presentations. The professional staff, many of whom are bilingual in English and Spanish, provide round-the-clock support and are committed to exceeding expectations. As part of the Dignity Memorial network, the largest group of funeral, burial, and cremation service providers in North America, they uphold a 100% service guarantee and offer pre-planning options with low-interest payment plans.

The cemetery itself is a tranquil resting place with several distinct gardens. The Veterans Circle honors military service members, police officers, firefighters, and civil servants with a monument featuring U.S. armed forces medallions and an American flag. The Guardian Angel Columbarium is designed for cremated remains, and there are also a dedicated cremation garden and a garden for the Jewish faith. The Good Shepherd Garden features a serene lake and fountain with a Carrara marble statue inscribed with the 23rd Psalm. Other notable landmarks include a monument of Our Lady of Guadalupe and a 9-foot statue of Jesus Christ. The park’s peaceful atmosphere is enhanced by various water features and well-maintained grounds.

Green Acres is deeply engaged in the Bloomington community, hosting events throughout the year. They hold two Memorial Day services, including a mass and a later memorial service supported by local Veterans of Foreign Wars chapters. Their Dia de los Muertos celebration includes face painting for children, refreshments, and a mass. Additionally, a candlelight service in December, held in conjunction with the Bridge Church of the Nazarene, allows families to place candles on loved ones’ graves. These community-focused events reflect the facility’s commitment to serving families with compassion and professionalism during difficult times. Green Acres Memorial Park & Mortuary remains a trusted provider, offering a peaceful and respectful setting for honoring and remembering loved ones.
