The opening of Vail Memorial Park gives Vail and its 5,000 residents--and
40,000 county-wide residents--a place where those who lived in or loved
the valley can be memorialized. Any current or past resident of Vail or
Eagle County and anyone who feels an emotional connection with the region
are invited to purchase a memorial inscription and place or scatter ashes
in the memorial park.
Several types of memorials are available:
Memorial inscriptions on stones in low dry stacked walls
Memorial inscriptions on native boulders sensitvely placed in clusters
Memorial inscriptions on flagstone slabs along pathways of crushed
stone
Stone benches and trees are also available as unique memorials.
Ashes can be scattered in designated areas or placed in biodegradable
urns behind the memorial walls or under memorial stones.
Stones for inscription can be selected online. Click on the link below
to see which stones are available in the dry stacked walls. A written
history of the person being memorialized may also be submitted online.
