Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park and Mortuary

Story

Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park and Mortuary has been providing services in the community for over 100 years. We are situated on two-and-a-half acres replete with established trees and beautiful flowers, and provide families a quiet place to honor the memory of their loved ones. As an established pillar in the community our funeral home provides services for burial and cremation as well and forwarding and receiving remains. We are non-denominational and work with all cemeteries. Our chapel has been recently remodeled to reflect the beauty of the surrounding cemetery as well as to be versatile for today’s families. We have removed the pews and replaced them with beautiful chairs in order to provide flexibility in arranging the seating for the right type of service to meet each family’s needs.

Our cemetery has a unique offering of memorialization for burial and cremation including garden mausoleums as well as indoor crypts, private and semi-private bench estates, a beautiful cremation garden and a variety of ground burial spaces. We invite you to visit us and if you would like a tour of our facility, please contact one of our family service counselors.

We are proud to be a member of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers. Dignity Memorial providers offer exclusive benefits, including National Transferability of Prearranged Services, the Bereavement Travel Program, the 24-Hour Compassion Helpline® and access to an acclaimed grief management library.

This place definitely deserves 5 stars. Not many people, including locals, know where it is situated. It is down a driveway next to a library. Look for Pierce Bros. If you do visit, make sure you take a map of the grounds that you can download as you will kick yourself that you didn't see everyone who is here. Very quiet, peaceful and you would not even know you were in LA. Definitely will visit again. Take flowers as well if there is someone there who is special to you.

There is so much history in these 2.5 acres of land nestled in between the hi-rises that are in Westwood. Only a few blocks from UCLA this little park to the stars thrives. If you are coming up Glendon its to the right before you get to WILSHIRE BLVD. Don't get it confused with the big pink parking lot. It will seem as though you are going into a little alley way type road, you will then see the a discreet sign that say PIERCE BROTHERS WESTWOOD VILLAGE MEMORIAL CENTER make a sharp right and you will enter the gates go the Memorial Park, if you would like to start by going to Marilyn Monroes grave then keep going around the oak tree until you are a third of the way around the park. It is one of the most shiniest on the all so you cant miss it. It is said that someone hand cleans that dialy. Which reminds me, that although they open pretty early try getting there around 10:00 when the groundsmen have already done their daily watering. An interesting story about the man who is buried above Marilyn Monre, his name is Richard Poncher, he bought the plot from Joe DiMaggio after he divorced Marilyn. Richard Poncher wasn't necessarily a Marilyn fan but it is said that eventually who grew to have an affinity for Marilyn so he requested of his wife that he be buried face side down, facing Marilyn, that way he would always be on top of her. If you continue down to the end of towards the benches on the west side, you will find TRUMAN CAPOTE and JOANNE CARSON, they wanted to be buried together and here they are next to each other like true friends. I hope you come on down and check out this place, its worth it.

Beautiful and serene cemetery. Definitely a hidden gem in the city. Here you will find the final resting places of Marilyn Monroe and Dean Martin, both in above ground crypts. Also in the plots on the lawn are Natalie Wood, Don Knotts and several others from Hollywood history!
