Ocean View Memory Gardens Cremation & Burial Service

Ocean View Memory Gardens Cremation & Burial Service, located at 1525 Ocean Boulevard NW in Coos Bay, Oregon, is a historic cemetery and full-service funeral provider that has served the Bay Area since its establishment in 1939. Over the decades, the cemetery has been stewarded by several respected local families, including the Flanagan, Steiner, Hansen, Hamilton, and Hille families, each contributing to its legacy of compassionate care and community service. In 1985, Ocean View Memory Gardens installed the only crematory in the Bay Area, marking a significant expansion of its capabilities. To honor its 75th anniversary in 2014, a licensed full-service Cremation & Burial Service was added in 2013, ensuring that families receive comprehensive end-of-life care under one umbrella.

The 14-acre park offers a serene and well-maintained setting for both traditional burial and cremation services. Families may choose private or public in-ground burial, as well as inurnment services at the gravesite, with the option of a portable chapel for intimate ceremonies. For those who prefer a larger venue, services can be held at one of the affiliated chapels in the area, such as the Coos Bay Chapel or North Bend Chapel. Ocean View Memory Gardens provides a wide array of merchandise and memorialization options, including burial spaces, cremation spaces, headstones, markers, monuments, benches, burial vaults, urn vaults, caskets, urns, cremation jewelry, keepsakes, printed materials, and video tributes. These can be arranged at the time of need or through advance preplanning, with flexible payment terms available. Pet cremation services are also offered, reflecting the facility’s commitment to honoring the entire family.

As part of a network of local funeral homes—including Coos Bay Chapel, North Bend Chapel, Sunset Memorial Park, Myrtle Grove Funeral Service, and Pets in Peace Animal Crematory—Ocean View Memory Gardens benefits from a shared tradition of professional, personalized care. The facility is wheelchair accessible and offers accessible parking, ensuring comfort for all visitors. While currently listed as temporarily closed on some platforms, the historical and ongoing significance of Ocean View Memory Gardens as a cornerstone of the Coos Bay community remains evident. The dedicated team, backed by decades of experience, continues to provide dignified and respectful service, helping families navigate their most difficult moments with empathy and professionalism.
