Interments in AlL Cemeteries
In addition to the burial plot and casket, there is usually going to be the need for an outer burial container. There are not required by law but are usually required by the cemetery as a requirement for being interred there. The outer burial container surrounds the casket in the grave to protect it from sinking into the ground. There are a few types of these the most basic is a grave-liner, generally made from reinforced concrete that covers the top and sides of the casket. Other models completely surround the casket and are thicker and offer more features such as re-enforcement and personalization.

Cemetery Types
Elevated Markers
More traditional cemeteries feature elevated grave markers and each grave space is a separate plot. This is very common in smaller towns or in order cemeteries. It is what cemeteries looked like when you were growing up. Many cemeteries have sections of the cemetery like this. A good example of this can be found at Mount Hope Cemetery.
Modern Cemeteries
Many modern cemeteries use a grave type known as a “Grave Crypt”, where a grave is designed to accommodate a double depth burial container. This option has become necessary for space constraints in cemeteries throughout the US (and world) as cemeteries are filling up. These cemeteries often have flat grave plaques in the ground.
Mausoleum
A mausoleum is a rectangular shaped building or above ground structure accommodating caskets. Mausoleums can honor a single family or multiple families. Cemeteries often have multiple mausoleum structures, all of which traditionally include a plaque affixed to the chanber entrance noting deceased information.
Selecting a Cemetery
There are many items that go into selecting a cemetery. Items such as personal tasts, location of cemetery, price of cemetery, religious affiliation as well as others. There are a least a couple dozen cemeteries in the San Diego area. Some are large and have mausoleums housing hundres of bodies as well as cremained remains.
The price of a lot or nitch for an urn vary greatly by cemetery and location with that cemetery. If your loved on is going to get a great view, it is going to cost more. We would be happy to give you recommendations to help with your decision – just ask.
