Greenoaks Funeral Home & Greenoaks Memorial Park

Greenoaks Funeral Home & Greenoaks Memorial Park, located at 9595 Florida Boulevard in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, provides compassionate funeral, cremation, and cemetery services to families of all cultural and religious backgrounds. The cemetery was founded by H.B. Parker in 1949, and in 1991 it joined the Dignity Memorial network, the largest network of funeral, cremation, and cemetery providers in North America. The funeral home was added to the 80-acre property in 1994 to better serve the Baton Rouge community, and the Greenoaks Life Celebration Reception Center opened in 2009, capable of hosting up to 200 guests for receptions, community events, and gatherings.

The funeral home features two staterooms and a spacious, non-denominational chapel. One stateroom offers an untraditional setting that can be converted into a small reception area. The team at Greenoaks understands the importance of a final tribute that tells the story of a life. They are committed to following your wishes, whether you are seeking a simple cremation and scattering, a full traditional funeral with graveside service and burial, or a modern celebration of life with live music, catering, and personalized touches such as a dove release, crawfish boil, or zydeco band. The staff takes the time to visit with your family and help plan a unique and personalized celebration.

Greenoaks Memorial Park, situated on 80 beautifully maintained acres, offers a picturesque setting for remembrance. Options include standard ground burial with bronze or granite markers and upright monuments, mausoleums, private family estates, memorial and cremation benches, and other permanent memorialization. Notable gardens include the Garden of Valor, honoring civil servants and U.S. armed forces members with lawn crypt burial, and Arbor Gardens, which features mature live oak trees and a gazebo for small committal services. The St. James Mausoleum is an outdoor community mausoleum; future development plans include 12 structures named after the apostles. Approximately 15 acres remain undeveloped for future expansion while maintaining a serene, park-like atmosphere.

The funeral home and cemetery are dedicated to veterans, offering a meaningful veteran's memorial service and participating in the Dignity Memorial Homeless Veterans Burial Program to ensure dignified burials for homeless and indigent veterans.
