A Natural Place of Lasting Peace 
Why Choose Riverside Cemetery for your interment needs?
Riverside Cemetery, situated on 123 acres of land that borders the west bank of the Genesee River, provides for a lovely natural and dignified 
memorial setting in which to honor loved ones who have been laid to rest.
At Riverside we are committed to providing customers with innovative interment options. The cemetery offers traditional in-ground burial, above-ground interment in one of our community mausoleums or columbaria, and a designated garden for the scattering of cremated remains.
The cemetery grounds are an ever-expanding landscape, offering burial space for both full body and cremated remains. The cemetery has a designated veterans section which honors those who have served our country.
Riverside cemetery provides three community mausoleums for above-ground interment. Crypt and niche spaces are available in our two garden mausoleums and the new Chapel of Peace Mausoleum. The new mausoleum includes an indoor chapel that affords families a convenient location to hold committal services. Additionally, several free standing columbaria for the inurnment of cremated remains have been erected in various sites throughout the cemetery. 
Riverside cemetery provides a tranquil garden on the cemetery grounds for the scattering of cremated remains. The Walk of Peace scattering garden borders a natural wetland area that is home to diverse wildlife. Memorial markers are provided at the garden’s location so that loved ones may be honored.
