Perpetual Care: Hillcrest Memorial Park

Perpetual Care in Texarkana's most beautiful and historic cemetery.

Hillcrest Memorial Park was established July 1, 1929, and is one of Texarkana's most distinguished landmarks. The original 15 acres have been expanded to over 39 acres of gently rolling hills and native shade trees. Hillcrest Memorial Park is now the resting place of U.S. Senators, Congressmen, local dignitaries, and people from all walks of life. Perpetual care means family members will always know the cemetery and grave sites will be cared for with loving attention. The cemetery became a Perpetual Care cemetery in 1946 and is operated under the State Banking Laws of Texas. Hillcrest Memorial Park was purchased by Texarkana Funeral Home in 1977. There are now over 7600 burials in the cemetery.

Hillcrest Memorial Park offers complete monument service, burial space, mausoleum space, and options for burial of cremains.
