Cemeteries

The City of Monroe owns and manages two municipal cemeteries: Hillcrest Cemetery bordering Stafford Street at Adams Street and Suncrest Cemetery bordering Parker Street, Washington Street, and Cemetery Drive. Both cemeteries were originally church cemeteries prior to becoming City-owned and maintained. In the Suncrest Cemetery, sections known as “Old,” “Western,” and “Central” date back to the early and mid-1800’s. Sections “A” and “B” in Hillcrest date to the 1940’s.

Spaces are currently available in Suncrest Cemetery.
