Mount Nebo/Kendall Memorial Gardens

Previously known as Star of David Memorial Gardens, Mount Nebo/Kendall Memorial Gardens opened in 1952 in Miami-Dade County. The cemetery is a lush, tree-filled property with sections of both flush-to-ground memorials and above-ground monuments. Greenery winds throughout cemetery properties in between headstones and seating benches, offering a natural setting in which family members and loved ones may find quiet and calm to remember their loved ones.

Our cemetery team takes great care to assure that your requests, needs and customs are adhered to, and strives to see that each family's heritage and traditions are strictly observed. Our cemetery follows the Jewish yahrzeit tradition of candle lighting observances on the anniversary of the passing, offering a sense of enduring comfort, peace and tranquility for family survivors.

Traditional in-ground as well as cremation niches in a beautiful mausoleum offer families a variety of options for memorialization.
