In-stock flat markers are ready in 2–4 weeks when the granite size and color are in stock. Special orders may take longer; we’ll let you know up front. Once delivered to Evergreen, the cemetery typically sets the marker within a few business days.

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

Yes. We add inscriptions to existing memorials on site at Evergreen Memorial Park. We bring our portable engraving equipment right to the gravesite, so there’s no need to disturb the memorial or coordinate a removal. Adding a second name, a death date, or a short inscription typically takes a couple of hours on site. Learn more about on-site engraving →

About the Park

Part of Riverside Since 1872

Riverside’s First Burial Ground

The first burial here took place in 1872, a year before the Riverside Cemetery Association was formally organized.

The association incorporated in 1880 as the Evergreen Cemetery Association and adopted the current name in 1966. Today the park covers more than 20 acres along 14th Street in downtown Riverside, with approximately 27,000 interments. John W. North, who founded the city of Riverside, and Eliza Tibbets, who planted the first navel orange trees in California, are both buried here.

Families from across the Inland Empire use Evergreen, including Riverside, Jurupa Valley, Norco, Corona, Moreno Valley, and Colton.

Ownership: Private, nonprofit, nonsectarian. Operated by the Riverside Cemetery Association, a 501(c)(13) nonprofit cemetery company.
