Traditional Burial Placement at Washington Memorial Park

When you choose cemetery services, you’re entrusting an important part of your family’s heritage to the care of others. Because your loved ones will visit that cemetery for many years to come, it’s essential to consider several key factors. Look for well-maintained grounds, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a willingness to discuss a wide range of options and prices. It’s also wise to seek good recommendations from trusted sources such as neighbors, the Better Business Bureau, or other consumer groups, and to ensure the cemetery is managed by a well-established and respected firm. BONNEY WATSON partners with many cemeteries throughout the Puget Sound region, providing clients with more options to meet their proximity and personal preferences.

The Cemetery at Washington Memorial Park in SeaTac

BONNEY WATSON’s own Washington Memorial Park is located on 70 beautifully landscaped acres in the City of SeaTac, about 10 miles south of downtown Seattle. The cemetery sits atop a hill with commanding views of the Cascades and Mount Rainier to the east, and the Olympic Mountains to the west.

An endowment care cemetery, Washington Memorial Park has numerous grave, columbarium, mausoleum, and niche sites, offering everything from simple urn scattering gardens to private family estates.

Washington Memorial Park was developed in the 1920s, and the first burial took place in 1931. Since then, we’ve been entrusted to handle the permanent placement of over 30,000 people. Through proper planning, we have room to serve families for the next 100-plus years.

The BONNEY WATSON Difference

The convenience of an all-in-one location with a funeral home, reception center, crematory, and cemetery is a significant feature that differentiates Washington Memorial Park from other cemeteries.

Washington Memorial Park offers a full range of above-ground and below-ground burial options. We also feature several columbariums, mausoleums, and several niche and memorial gardens, along with designated veterans sections.

Washington Memorial Park is home to the first and only POW/MIA Living Memorial Plaza in the United States. Built in 1992, this memorial includes a repository where people can permanently enshrine their POW/MIA bracelets. The adjacent Freedom Shrine features historical documents representing the history of our country.

For generations, families who choose BONNEY WATSON appreciate the broad range of options for burial or memorialization at Washington Memorial Park, and the ease in which they can lay their loved ones to rest.

Burial Placement Options

Washington Memorial Park offers a variety of burial options — including mausoleums, ground burial, crypts, scattering gardens, and more — to help you find the most suitable resting place for your loved one. The Chapel of Memories Mausoleum provides indoor entombment in a beautiful setting with book-match marble crypt fronts, custom memorialization, and stained glass. Outdoor mausoleum options, such as the Terrace Garden Mausoleum, feature exterior crypts surrounding a tranquil fountain. The cemetery also includes more than 50 acres of ground burial space across 21 distinct gardens, offering both upright and flat memorial options amid artful and serene surroundings.

Cremation Placement Options

BONNEY WATSON provides a full range of cremation placement options at Washington Memorial Park, including urn gardens, scattering gardens, boulder estates, and above-ground niches in columbaria. The Mountain View Columbarium, inspired by Asian architecture, features both indoor and outdoor niches and a stained-glass design celebrating the Northwest landscape — from the Olympic and Cascade Mountains to Mount Rainier, Mount Baker, and Mount St. Helens. For a more natural setting, the Lake Urn Boulder Garden offers families a distinctive way to create a lasting memorial by placing cremated remains in a private boulder beside the cemetery’s peaceful water feature.
