Our Story

Forest Park Westheimer Cemetery has been a part of the Houston community since 1956. Our cemetery, then called Calvary Cemetery, originally began as a Catholic cemetery blessed by the Houston-Galveston archdiocese. Today, we are no longer exclusively Catholic and serve all religions, traditions and cultures.

Founded by James Forbis Eubanks, Forest Park Westheimer Cemetery was located on a little 2-lane road surrounded by cattle fields. As Houston grew around it, the cemetery became the most convenient and centralized cemetery in the western part of the city.

In 1976, a funeral home was constructed at Forest Park Westheimer Cemetery.

Over the years, we looked for opportunities to better serve the large and vibrant Asian community in Houston. We were delighted when we saw the chance to create a funeral home and cemetery space like no other. Our teams consulted with a feng shui master and architect to create the Chapel of Eternal Peace at Forest Park and Garden of Eternal Peace at Forest Park.

The chapel at Forest Park Westheimer is a traditional space with pews that seat approximately 250 guests. This non-denominational chapel features a towering A-frame vaulted ceiling and a large stained-glass window that fits perfectly into the triangular roof line.

A private viewing room, located next to the chapel, is available to family members and invited guests who desire a quiet place to remember and reflect on a loved one’s life.

We honor our families with a commitment to celebrating life with dedication, excellence and innovation. Please contact us if you need immediate assistance, or if you would like more information about our services.

The 126-acre cemetery, founded in 1956, offers those who come to honor loved ones a peaceful place of remembrance. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Houston, the cemetery has palms, live oaks and evergreens—the shade they provide is much appreciated on hot summer days. The well-landscaped property also features lovely annual blooming flowers and nature gardens—all ideal spots for reflection.

Occupying close to 25 acres, the octagon-shaped Garden of Eternal Peace at Forest Park is the 1st feng shui-designed cemetery in Houston. With 4 pagoda entrances, all of which feature celestial animals, the garden offers a spiritual place for members of the Asian community to reflect and remember loved ones.

Hand-crafted stone from China and plantings are carefully and purposefully located to enhance the tranquil quality of qi throughout the garden. The Garden of Eternal Peace also features bench and walled estates, custom lots and estates, private mausoleums, individual flat and raised monument gardens, semiprivate and private estates, and space for a future cremation garden.

The water feature in the Garden of Eternal Peace is a circular fountain with 4 symbolic animals: a crane, fish, frog and duck. Bubbler fountains with stone pads collect no water at their bases on the 4 corners of the garden.

Our professional funeral directors are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to assist you with arranging a funeral, whether you need immediate assistance or are planning ahead.
