Our first cemetery is 'Old' Tacoma Cemetery, located on 42 acres in the heart of Tacoma, at 48th & South Tacoma Way. Opened in 1875, the cemetery contains many of the founding fathers of the great City of Destiny. On any particular day you will find walkers enjoying the natural beauty of this Victorian cemetery with the many majestic trees located throughout the grounds.
We understand that making the many decisions which come at a time of loss can be difficult. We offer our support by providing you with two options as you consider making immediate arrangements. With online Arrangements, you can take your time to select the arrangements which are best for your preferences and budget.
These regulations are designed to preserve the beauty of our cemetery for everyone to enjoy. Flowers and grave decorations cannot be burdensome to our staff or encumber upon another grave out of respect for all. Our park staff will remove flowers &/or decorations when deemed wilted, faded or unsightly or do not conform to our regulations.
Meet the dedicated Staff of New Tacoma that are committed to providing the highest level of personal service to you and your family ensuring the best possible experience at the most difficult time. We hear over and over "You made this easier" and that's our job, to lessen your burden, fears, anxieties and most importantly, your pain.

Gorgeous walking on slight hills, this cemetary is also the best place in Tacoma to walk your dog. Our đ and I have made this beautiful place our destination countless times when I want to give him a good tiring out. Within the cemetary, find the grave site with Rockin' Robin Roberts, local musician, as well as the gravestone surrounded by two massive cedars near the
back of the grounds.

The most beautiful cemetary in Pierce County! This scenic, sprawling cemetary has beautiful 134 year old trees, rolling green lawns, and thousands of unique vertical monuments. The founding fathers of Tacoma, Job Carr and General Morton McCarver are laid to rest here, along with many of Tacoma's historical elite. Tucked up off of South Tacoma Way; this cemetary is a hidden gem of the city, rich in history, beauty, and serenity.
