About Rose Hills Memorial Park

Established in 1930 as a non-profit organization, Rose Hills Memorial Park is located on a mountainside overlooking the lovely, wooded hills of Westchester and Putnam Counties.  Rose Hills is non-sectarian and serves all faiths.  Directly adjacent to Rose Hills is King David Memorial Gardens for those of the Jewish faith.  Encompassing nearly 100 rolling acres, both Rose Hills and King David are widely considered to be among New York’s most naturally beautiful cemeteries.
