Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Erlanger, Kentucky)

Forest Lawn Memorial Park, is a cemetery is located at 3227 Dixie Highway in Erlanger, Kentucky.

In 1935, Marguerite Stetter, of Bellevue, Kentucky purchased the old Tom Cody Estate on the Dixie Highway for use as a cemetery.

The absence of large grave markers and monuments made Forest Lawn unique in the 1930s.

Grave markers were to remain small and flush with the ground, thus, maintaining a rural garden atmosphere.
