Oakdale’s Rules: What’s Allowed

Oakdale permits flat granite and bronze markers throughout most of the park, with upright granite monuments allowed in Sections F, G, and H (flat markers are also an option there). The east curb of Elm and Sections D and G are upright only, no flat markers. Every marker needs one of three edge treatments: a 2-inch sanded border, a 2-inch beveled edge, or an LMP (lawn mower proof) edge. The Garden of Guadalupe section requires Oxford granite in the 32″ × 20″ × 3″ size with an LMP edge. All headstones must be approved by Oakdale before delivery.

Baby / Cremation Marker

18″ × 9″ × 3″. The smallest flat marker at Oakdale, for baby or cremation spaces, with a 1-inch sanded border.

Single / Companion Marker

28″ × 16″ × 3″. The standard marker size for a single or companion space, permitted throughout the park.

Standard Marker

32″ × 20″ × 3″. A larger single-space marker. Call ahead so we can verify your grave’s exact size before ordering.

How long does it take to get a headstone made and set at Oakdale?

In-stock flat and bronze markers are ready in 2–4 weeks. Special orders may take longer; we’ll let you know up front. Once we deliver to Oakdale, their own crew sets the marker on site.

Can I add an inscription to an existing memorial at Oakdale?

On site engraving is one of our specialties at most Southern California cemeteries, but Oakdale handles inscriptions on existing memorials in house through their own office. To add a name, date, or inscription to a memorial already at Oakdale, contact the Oakdale office directly at (626) 691-2000.

Do you handle the approval process with Oakdale?

Yes. Every design goes through our office first. Oakdale requires headstones to be approved before delivery, and anything that doesn’t meet their specifications gets refused at the gate, so we submit your proof to their office and confirm approval before your marker ever leaves our factory.

About the Park

A San Gabriel Valley Landmark Since 1890

A Place in Glendora Since 1890

Founded in 1890 when citizens of Glendora, Azusa, Covina, and Santa Ana pooled together to buy the original 20 acres after the older Fairmount Cemetery ran out of room.

Oakdale was incorporated on July 9, 1890. The park grew to its current 118 acres with a 1925 expansion onto neighboring orange-grove land, and a crematory and on-site funeral home were added in 1968.

Families from across the San Gabriel Valley use Oakdale, including Glendora, Azusa, Covina, West Covina, San Dimas, and La Verne.

Ownership: Private, for-profit. Owned and operated by Service Corporation International under the Dignity Memorial brand.
