Garden of Memories was started in 1939 with the purpose of creating a cemetery offering below ground burials. The cemetery has grown throughout the years and is now the largest single park in the Jefferson Parish area. Part of the Dignity Memorial network, Garden of Memories has trees and lush landscaping. The grounds are also home to the Thomas Jefferson Arboretum as well as one of the earliest memorials in Jefferson Parish that honors not only Veterans of the Vietnam War but also Prisoners of War and those missing in action. These sections honor all branches of service and pays respect to those who served our country in combat. Garden of Memories offers professional, caring service by trained staff members and gives families various burial options. This Southern cemetery not only memorializes those who have fought for their country but also those who consider the Cajun state home. The serene grounds of Garden of Memories commemorates the lives of those at rest and gives family and friends a special place to take a peaceful moment to remember their loved ones. You can join some of its most famous residents, including Bennie Ellender, former Tulane head football coach; Mike Miley, former LSU quarterback and pro baseball shortstop; Ed Morgan, major league baseball player with the Cleveland Indians who hit .350 in 1930 but also led the American League with 66 strikeouts. In 1931 he batted .351 behind Al Simmons and Babe Ruth. Also buried there is Gram Parsons, rock musician with the Pacers. Credits: Notes and photos from web site: www.findagrave.com
