Mission

Our goal at Starlight Memorial Park is to preserve local legacies through restoration of this incredible historic space while also creating a community gathering space. We seek to celebrate life and honor history by also offering better deathcare and final placement options for Tempe and the surrounding areas.

Personallized Pre-Planning

Our dedicated team can help with your legacy plan whether you are looking for cremation memorialization, opting for in-ground burial, or considering an alternate final placement option. End-of-life planning is more than just funeral planning and  we provide a community resource center to help individuals make informed decisions about their final plans or wishes.

Final Placement

We offer final placement for cremated remains in our curated gardens. Using Homecoming’s unique columbarium design, we are able to provide a more environmentally-friendly deathcare alternative in a beautiful community space that celebrates life while honoring death.

Gathering Space

Our beautiful historic space is a place for gathering. Whether looking to host a funeral, a wedding, or a workshop, our stunning grounds and historic buildings can provide a gathering place  for your next event.
