2014 marks our 100th year of service and we are celebrating with some very special events. Firstly we are working on an addition to our very popular Holly Oak Lane area and will be posting updates and photos about that work. Holly Oak Lane is a very historic and lovely part of our park, soon to be even nicer with the addition of some landscaping features. We are also considering hosting some Summertime music soirees in our mausoleum, that is still in the planning phase. Thirdly, we are very excited about the long-awaited completion of the breathtaking stained glass window ceiling in our main building. We're putting together photos and more info about that to share with you too, so please check back soon!

Monday, May 28th, 2012 This year thousands of people attended the Memorial Day service at Loma Vista Memorial Park. Set up took a full week, with nearly 500 volunteers ironing and putting up 3800 flags, and crosses. In addition, grave markers were swept, and crosses painted and repaired. The event started in 1939, when Fullerton’s Chapman family placed 50 flags and crosses on veterans’ graves. Now the number of deceased vets grows by hundreds each year. |
