Traditional in-ground burial
A “traditional” burial means that the full body is placed in a casket and buried below ground. At Williamsville Cemetery, we do everything possible to accommodate your individual needs and desires when it comes to traditional burial, including keeping spouses and families together (which is obviously much easier if you have made pre-arrangements). Even if you prefer a traditional in-ground burial and your spouse wants cremation – or vice versa – you can still be together, as most graves can accommodate one casketed burial plus up to four urns (or five urns if there is no casket).
Please note that Williamsville Cemetery does not offer above-ground burial in crypts or mausoleums. However, if this is your preference, we do have space available at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Buffalo and Lakeside Cemetery in Hamburg.
To learn more about traditional options, please call one of our Family Service Representatives at (716) 885-1600, or email wc@williamsvillecemetery.com.
