Services Offered by River Bend Cemetery

We are actively providing spaces for full casket burial and/or cremation burial at reasonable prices. RBC also has a payment plan for those wishing to own a burial site at today’s prices rather than at a higher cost many years in the future.

Interment Options

Available for casket burials are single graves, two-grave lots, and lots of as many graves as a family may need. Graves may be used for casket burials and/or numerous cremation burials. Lots may have a monument or a bench as the main headstone.
Separate cremation-only gardens are situated on the shore of the Pawcatuck River.
A columbarium has been installed and above ground spaces are now available.
Graves must be paid in full before interment is permitted.

Special Memorials: Tree Beautification Program. Anyone can memorialize a loved one (buried in River Bend Cemetery or elsewhere) by having a tree planted to beautify the cemetery. The cost is $750, which includes the cost of the tree, the planting of the tree, and a 24″ x 12″ granite marker on the ground. Engraving of the marker is not included, but paid separately to a monument company.

Monument Cleaning: Power washing with a special stone cleaner will restore your monument or marker to “like new” condition. Call the office for estimates.
