Celestial Memorial Gardens

Celestial Memorial Gardens Celestial Memorial Gardens is one of the few family owned and operated cemeteries in this area. We are conveniently located just off US 1, on Delree Street.

Celestial Memorial Gardens and Mausoleum is Columbia’s most accommodating cemetery. This beautiful park was founded in 1963, by the late Duke Newton. Celestial remains one of the few family owned and operated perpetual care cemeteries in the Columbia area. Celestial is situated on a 47 acre tract of land, easily accessible to our Columbia area residents. At this time, only 15 acres are developed,

leaving 32 acres for future development. We have space availability in our established gardens and mausoleums. The availability of so much property allows families to establish a burial estate for current and future generations, which helps maintain your family’s heritage. When choosing Celestial as your final resting place you’ll find many options: Private Estates, Mausoleum Entombment, Traditional Ground Burial and Cremation Niches, Bench Entombment or Ground Burial. Celestial consists of several gardens that are separated by the type of memorial in that garden. Celestial also has a beautiful veterans garden that recognizes all branches of service. Making cemetery arrangements prior to a death actually occurring comes with its benefits: ability to reason, choice selection, terms customized to fit your budget, in-house financing, with no credit checks and interest free options. Our families receive lower prices through pre-need discounts. We offer protection of your loved ones' burial needs, as well as a Family Protection Plan. This all leads to our valued families having peace of mind. Someday everyone will eventually have to face the purchasing of cemetery property, merchandise and services. It is easier, kinder and more economical to do it together, before the need occurs. We are dedicated community servants who provide compassionate assistance, with dignity, integrity, honesty and respect to all our families in need. While reaching out to families offering the benefits of prearrangement. We offer a free burial space, honoring veterans and first responders.

We want to share a brief update with all our families we are honored to serve. Our annual pricing review period has arrived. Each year we carefully evaluate our operating costs and work closely with our vendors to keep pricing as fair and manageable as possible while continuing to provide the level of care and attention you deserve.

This year there will be a modest price adjustment effective March 1st. Sharing this notice in advance gives families time to review options, plan ahead if they choose, and ask any questions they may have before the new pricing takes effect.

Our focus remains where it has always been, on serving you with compassion, clarity, and respect. We are committed to being available, transparent, and supportive, ensuring every family feels informed and cared for throughout the entire process. Thank you for the continued trust you place in us and for allowing us the privilege of serving our community.
