 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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.

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!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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 Olivewood

Do you handle everything with Olivewood?

Yes. We design and engrave the memorial at our Chino factory, and once you approve the design proof we take it from there: paperwork, cemetery approval, and delivery coordination. No separate calls to Olivewood on your end.

What are Olivewood’s visiting hours?

Olivewood Memorial Park’s grounds are open daily from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. during standard time and until 7:00 p.m. during Daylight Saving Time. For holiday hours or section access questions, call the cemetery office at (951) 683-6611.

What types of memorials are allowed at Olivewood?

Olivewood allows flat granite markers set level with the ground; upright monuments are not permitted. See the Cemetery Regulations section above for every permitted size and section rule.

What are the setting fees at Olivewood?

As of July 1, 2026, Olivewood charges a marker setting fee based on size, paid directly to the cemetery before they’ll accept delivery of a marker: $440 for the baby marker (16″×10″×3″), $450 for cremation markers in Sky View Terrace, the Urn Garden, and Sections Q3/R3 (20″×10″×3″), $480 for the standard adult marker (28″×16″×3″ or 30″×18″×3″ with a bevel), $625 for the companion marker (40″×18″×3″), and $600 for VA markers (24″×12″×3″, veterans only). These fees are separate from the cost of the memorial. Olivewood’s endowment care is collected when the burial plot itself is purchased, so there’s no additional endowment charge when the marker is installed.

Straight from Olivewood, here are their official rules and price list:

Rules & Regulations (PDF) ↓ General Price List (PDF) ↓

Who installs the marker at Olivewood?

Olivewood’s own staff. We deliver the finished memorial to the cemetery, and their team sets it level with the ground. The setting fee covers this installation.

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

In-stock flat markers are ready in 2–4 weeks. Special orders may take longer; we’ll let you know up front. Once delivered to Olivewood, their own crew sets the marker as part of their regular schedule.

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

Yes. We add inscriptions to existing memorials on site at Olivewood. 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 →
