At Holly Hill Memorial Park Cemetery, we’ve been working to help people plan a dignified rest for over 70 years. Your loved ones deserve honor, respect, and compassion – a way to establish the permanence of their memories in the form of a physical monument. Here, you will receive the highest level of care. We were founded in 1947 by Ralph H. Wilson. The city manager of the time, Robert M. Cooksey, had begun to realize several difficulties involved with running a cemetery as a public utility. He and the city council approved a plan to sell the existing city cemetery to Wilson, who would realize a new concept: the city cemetery as a public park, to be cared for and maintained via a perpetual trust fund. With flat bronze memorials, sidewalks, and landscaping, the cemetery was re-envisioned as a place that would beautify the community while honoring those who had passed away. We have years of experience caring for families, from all walks of life. Each family comes to us because they know we are leaders in our profession, dedicated to excellence in service, and have the highest integrity.
