Approved Sizes and the Cemetery’s Regulations

La Verne Cemetery’s Rules: What’s Allowed

La Verne Cemetery accepts flat granite markers with any edge style: plain polished, a polished bevel, or a sanded border. Upright monuments are permitted in select sections once the cemetery approves the design and the monument’s foundation. Porcelain photo portraits are welcome on any marker; tile photo inlays are not permitted. Every memorial goes through the cemetery’s installation application before delivery, and we handle that paperwork for you.

Cremation / Child Marker 24″ × 12″ × 3″

A compact flat marker for cremation, infant, or single graves where a smaller stone fits the space.

Single Marker 28″ × 16″ × 3″

The standard single adult marker, with room for a name, dates, artwork, and an inscription.

Side by Side Marker 36″ × 18″ × 3″

A companion flat marker for two adjacent plots, centered across both spaces.

Upright Monument

Select sections only, with the cemetery’s prior approval. Each upright is set on an approved foundation, and the cemetery supervises the setting once the foundation has cured.

V.J. Memorials is the place to go if you are looking for a headstone for your loved one. They were very efficient, patient and empathic during our difficult time. Corrine made the process very smoothly for our family. Their turn around time is the fastest in the surrounding counties and their prices are very reasonable for their great quality of work. Would strongly recommend to visit their business you will not be disappointed!

I wanted a personal and meaningful grave marker for my baby. I found Vj memorials online and set up an appointment. This vendor exceeded my expectations. Corinne made the process of purchasing easy and comfortable for me and my husband. I came with my own design and Corinne was able to create a very similar one which I am very happy. She explained and answered all the questions that I had. I am truly grateful for good service she provided us.

Corrine Moreno was so kind and patient with me. So helpful with offering different choices while keeping in mind my financial situation. She patiently listened to stories about my sister which really made this dreaded 1st time experience a fun therapy session! She’s the best!

We called VJ Memorials after speaking with another business that just didn’t feel welcoming. From the first phone call, they were kind and patient with us. We came in the next day, designed everything, and paid — the whole process was easier than we expected. She was so empathetic and kind during a hard time. We highly recommend them. Our memorial will be placed in Pomona Cemetery.

Common Questions

What Families Ask About La Verne Cemetery

Do you handle everything with La Verne Cemetery?

Yes. We design and engrave the memorial at our Chino factory, and once you approve the design proof we take it from there: the cemetery’s installation application, approval paperwork, delivery scheduling, and the installation itself. No separate calls to La Verne Cemetery on your end.

What are La Verne Cemetery’s visiting hours?

La Verne Cemetery does not publish set visiting hours. For current gate hours or section access questions, call the cemetery office at (909) 593-1415.

What types of memorials are allowed at La Verne Cemetery?

La Verne Cemetery allows flat granite markers and, with prior approval in select sections, upright monuments. See the Cemetery Regulations section above for every permitted size and section rule.

What are the setting and endowment fees at La Verne Cemetery?

As of August 18, 2026, La Verne Cemetery charges a $135 layout and inspection fee for each marker installed, payable when the installation application is submitted. Upright monuments add a $55 supervision fee when the monument is set on its foundation. The cemetery also collects an endowment care contribution of 40¢ per square inch of the marker’s base, about $179 for a standard 28″ × 16″ × 3″ marker. These fees are separate from the cost of the memorial and are itemized in your quote. The endowment care fund is a savings account that funds the long-term care of the grounds; every cemetery in California is required by law to maintain one.

Who installs the marker at La Verne Cemetery?

We do. La Verne Cemetery does not provide installation services, so our own crew delivers the finished memorial and sets it. The cemetery’s staff verify the layout and inspect the finished installation, which is what the layout and inspection fee covers.

How long does it take to get a headstone made and set at La Verne Cemetery?

In-stock flat markers are ready in 2–4 weeks. Special orders may take longer; we’ll let you know up front. Once La Verne Cemetery approves the installation application, we schedule a delivery appointment and our crew sets the marker on that same visit.

Can I add an inscription to an existing memorial at La Verne Cemetery?

Yes. We add inscriptions to existing memorials on site at La Verne Cemetery. 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 Cemetery

A Quiet La Verne Landmark

A Place in La Verne Since the Late 1800s

Established as Evergreen Cemetery in the late 1800s, when the town around it was still known as Lordsburg.

The cemetery covers about ten quiet acres at 3201 B Street, with mature trees and a clear view of the San Gabriel Mountains. It carried the Evergreen name for years before taking the name of the city that grew up around it.

Families from across the eastern San Gabriel Valley use La Verne Cemetery, including La Verne, San Dimas, Pomona, Claremont, and Glendora.
