History

Considered the longest continuously operating business in West Seattle, Forest Lawn Cemetery has served families since 1902. In the early 1980s, Forest Lawn Funeral Home opened to better serve the West Seattle community. The facility closed shortly thereafter and reopened in 1995. In 2002, we merged with West Home Funeral Chapel in West Seattle. Today, both the funeral home and cemetery are members of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers and create personalized tributes to celebrate those who shape our community each day.

"We have used Forest Lawn Cemetery five different times between 2001 and 2020, and each time we have been left feeling like were very well taken care of. We have made sure to have a place for our whole family at Forest Lawn. It is important to have people and staff that are going to treat you like family when you are going through a time when you are emotional and hurting from the loss of a loved one."

"The team allowed me the time to answer each question without rushing the process. When I would get stuck with an answer they would give suggestions which were helpful. They displayed a calm presence which is needed at a time like this."

"With COVID-19, losing a loved one is made even more difficult given social distancing constraints. Making funeral arrangements is still a necessity. In our experience, Forest Lawn Funeral Home felt very safe and comfortable. The facilities seemed sparkling clean and well-ventilated, hand-sanitizers as well as masks were available for visitors to use and were well-supplied, and all staff wore masks. We utilized cremation and related services. The staff were highly professional, easy to talk to, responsive to requests, and made the entire process much less of a hardship on the family. —Anonymous, West Seattle"

"We were over joyed to be able to have a small Memorial service, based on maintaining the 6 ft separation, and not feel at risk. The video streaming that was offered allowed others to be involved in the Memorial and was greatly appreciated. Everyone appreciated the way that Forest Lawn had arranged for Doves to be released at the conclusion of the service and it was the perfect 'good bye'."
