Greenlawn offers the very best funeral, cremation and cemetery services to families within our Bakers

Greenlawn Northeast is a much-loved area landmark, distinguished by its mature shade trees, beautiful lake and fountains, expansive lawns and colonial-inspired mortuary and chapel building. Here rest many of Bakersfield’s founders, leaders, and uniformed heroes. And here is where today’s families can still find a multitude of memorial burial and cremation options for themselves and their loved ones.

What Does “Home” Mean to You? 🏡

For some, home is a place. For others, it’s the people, traditions, stories, and memories that stay with us wherever life leads.

At our funeral home, we often hear families share stories about the places and moments that made their loved one feel most at home. Sunday dinners, a favorite chair, holiday traditions, time spent in the backyard, or simply being surrounded by family can become meaningful parts of the memories we carry forward.

Those stories help us understand the life being honored and the people and places that mattered most.

Behind the Scenes: Preparing the Register Book

Before every service, thoughtful details are prepared with care, including the register book where family and friends can share their names and messages of support.

Years from now, those handwritten notes often become treasured reminders of the people who gathered to honor a loved one. It's one of the many small details that can hold lasting meaning.

Interactive Question: What Family Recipe Means the Most to You?

Personal touches help tell a unique story.

Photographs, favorite books, military memorabilia, artwork, hobbies, or meaningful keepsakes can help create a service that reflects the life and personality of your loved one.

These thoughtful details often become some of the most memorable parts of a meaningful tribute.

National Cremation Placement Day is this Saturday.

If a loved one's ashes are still in your care, you are invited to learn about permanent placement in a welcoming, respectful setting.

Come with questions. Explore your options. Take the next step only if it feels right.
A guided tour with a counselor activates a $500 credit toward cemetery property. If you choose to move forward, apply the credit to your selection and pay the remaining balance over time while your loved one's ashes remain respectfully placed in the crypt.

No purchase is necessary to participate.
