Traditional Burial

Our memorial gardens feature specific themes that reflect on attributes of life and character. Located next to Our Redeemer Chapel are the Garden of Faith, Garden of Hope and Garden of Resurrection, each with individual and family lots.

Two other gardens are specially dedicated to honor community members who have served their community and their country: Pastor’s Point, especially for Lutheran pastors and their spouses; and the Garden of Valor, for veterans of military service and their spouses.

Our Redeemer Chapel

Our Redeemer Chapel is the centerpiece of Glen Eden East Memorial Park. Its design recalls a classic old-world church with its covered front porch and steeple. Visitors to the chapel find the peace and serenity conducive to reflection and meditation. Our Redeemer Chapel’s tiled entryway leads to an interior bathed in natural light from arched windows, with vaulted ceilings highlighted by decorative wood beams.

With seating for 150, Our Redeemer Chapel is a comforting setting for religious services.

Redeemer Mausoleum

Adjacent to Our Redeemer Chapel, the masonry-veneered Redeemer Mausoleum continues the old-world style design, and easy access between the two buildings makes year-round visitation convenient and comfortable.

Once an expensive option for the wealthy, mausoleum entombment is now an attractive and affordable option for many families who prefer the dignity and classic elegance of above ground burial.

We offer a variety of options including single, true companion or deluxe companion crypts, all with the distinctive beauty of a stone front with bronze memorial plaque.

Those preferring the simplicity, dignity and affordability of cremation can choose a marble fronted niche, or a beveled or stained glass front to display personal mementos.

Cremation

For Macomb Township area residents who prefer the advantages of cremation, Glen Eden East offers the choice of traditional in-ground burial, or above ground inurnment in Our Redeemer Mausoleum.

If you prefer a traditional in-ground space at Glen Eden East, you may choose one of five themed gardens: The Garden of Faith, Garden of Hope and Garden of Resurrection; or one of our two specially dedicated gardens -- the Pastors Point Garden, reserved for Lutheran pastors and their spouses, and the Garden of Valor a special setting of honor for our veterans and their spouses. Each space can accept the urns of four loved ones.

If you prefer above ground, indoor inurnment you may choose niche spaces in our Redeemer Mausoleum. Designed to complement the old-world Lutheran style of the Redeemer Chapel, it provides for year round, weatherproof visitation of family and friends.

Beveled glass fronted niches display personal mementos, providing an enduring memorial.

Veterans

Traditional In-Ground Veterans’ Memorials
At Glen Eden East, a massive bronze sculpture of an American eagle overlooks the Garden of Valor – our specially themed resting place for Veterans and their spouses.

Government-Provided Marker
The U.S. Government provides a 24” x12” bronze grave marker free to each veteran. It includes name, dates of birth and death, rank and service, and the military cross.

Optional Upgrades
For individual gravesites, you may purchase a granite base for the government marker, with or without a bronze flower vase that features the military cross and a circle of stars.
For companion memorialization, you can purchase a larger granite base that provides space for the addition of a matching companion memorial-marker and a military-style bronze flower vase.

Sometimes, couples have different memorialization choices.
Not everyone has a firm decision on their burial wishes, and often, couples don’t want the same arrangements.

Our memorial advisors are dedicated professionals who will fully and clearly explain all of your options, so that individual choices can be accommodated. Having worked with virtually every family preference and situation, they’ll guide you through the selection process so you’ll feel certain you’ve made the right choices, whether the couple reposes together, or separately.

Each Glen Eden traditional in-ground lot can accommodate a single casket or a single casket and a single urn of cremated remains, or up to four urns. A mausoleum crypt can accommodate a single casket or a casket and an urn. Individual mausoleum niches and companion niches for urns are also available.

A reminder about flower placement.
Fresh flower arrangements are allowed on lots in a permanent bronze vase or a disposable vase. Silk flower arrangements are only allowed to be placed in a permanent bronze vase.

In mausoleums, one floral tribute per crypt or niche is allowed to be placed. Floral displays may be placed in a vase affixed to the crypt front, and are limited to items of eight inches (8”) in height and six inches (6”) wide. Only one floral tribute per crypt or niche is allowed unless an additional vase has been placed on the crypt or niche front.
