Ashgrove Columbarium

We are now accepting reservations for our Ash Grove Columbarium.  These niches hold the cremated remains in an above-ground beautiful location overlooking the cemetery and are available in single or dual niches, for $2000 per urn.

The site is where a huge 175-year-old Ash Tree was removed in 2015. This tree saw the growth and lives of all Mt. Washington residents since 1840 when it sprouted. We felt the tree should be memorialized in this manner. Contact us at 513-484-9729 or click here for ordering information.

We also have full burial and cremation burial sites available.  Search our map using the last name “Available” HERE
