At Queen of Peace Monuments, we are dedicated to helping people commemorate their loved ones by creating high-quality, lasting memorials. In doing so, we have forged relationships with large, public cemeteries and small, local cemeteries alike. North Babylon fits into the latter category, as a local cemetery with beautiful scenery.
About North Babylon Cemetery
Established in 1924 as a small local cemetery, North Babylon Cemetery offers an intimate resting place for your loved ones. The large cross at the center of the cemetery fosters an atmosphere that is conducive to reflection, and remembering positive times during visitation. There are several decorative plants surrounding the large cross. The brick gate at the entrance welcomes visitors, creating an inviting setting. There are many shrubs and raised brick flower beds throughout the property, which aid in creating a natural and reflective feel.
