alley Memorial Park is located beyond the Knik River at mile 12.8 on the Old Glenn Highway near Bodenburg Butte, a well known landmark in the area. The 7 acre cemetery was established in 1962 and Angelus assumed management and care of the Park in 1983.
As you enter through the stone pillars and wrought iron gates, your eyes are drawn to the Monument of Flags at the crest of the hill that is the backdrop of the cemetery. As you survey the surrounding area, Matanuska and Pioneer Peaks and Lazy Mountain are just a few of the easily identifiable landmarks.
Valley Memorial Park is a non-denominational cemetery and families may choose traditional ground burial or above-ground garden crypt entombment. Thaere is also a special garden dedicated for cremain burials. Only flat bronze or flat granite markers are permitted in the cemetery. Families wanting additional information may contact the Angelus office in Anchorage.
