Ridge Hill Memorial Park is a 100-acre (0.40 km2) cemetery (60 of which are developed) located in Lorain County, Ohio. Started in 1929. It is non-sectarian and welcoming to all faiths and cultures. In 2023 Ridge Hill Memorial Park became the first and only cemetery in Lorain County, Ohio to offer glass front cremation niches and a cremation scattering garden.[1]
Ridge Hill Memorial Park is governed by a board of directors, who are elected by and from the cemetery lot owners. Trust funds are utilized to ensure that the cemetery remains financially solvent in perpetuity.
