Traditional Lawn Space
This "traditional" interment choice consists of a single space in a section or garden area of your choice.

Double Depth Lawn Space
A variation on traditional ground spaces, double depth consists of one interment space atop the other.

Lawn Crypt
The lawn crypt is cement-lined and consists of one space above the other, located in our garden areas or courts. Pre-crypted spaces offer families an excellent property value.

Companion Estate
This is especially fitting for couples and features two side-by-side spaces arranged in front of a wall for semi privacy, with a pillow block for the family name. Companion estates are always in garden areas, with special plantings and benches accenting each four or five estates.

Family Garden
This beautifully distinguished private enclosure features four to twelve spaces, a bench, special plantings, walkways and a pillow block for your family name.

Wall Crypts and The Caves of Abraham

Interment within a wall or cave is a tradition that dates to Biblical times. The earliest reference to this type of burial is in Genesis, in the account of Abraham’s acquisition of the caves of Machpelah as a burial site for his beloved wife, Sarah.

Mount Sinai has brought this ancient tradition into the present with elegant wall crypts at Mount Sinai Memorial Park in Hollywood Hills and with The Caves of Abraham, a contemporary interpretation of this revered approach, at our Park in Simi Valley.

Wall crypts are available in single spaces or in side-by-side or front-and-back double configurations at various heights above the ground.
