Established 1967...  Located 3 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean, originally named Roselawn Cemetery, the property was purchased by the Los Angeles Arch Diocese in 1952. The cemetery has three columbariums on the property, with beautiful renderings of the Pieta, Our Lady of Guadalupe and Our Lady of La Vang atop the structures.

“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep.” (John 10:11) One of the few Christian symbols dating from the first century is that of the Good Shepherd carrying on His shoulders a lamb or a sheep, with two other sheep at his side. The lamb or sheep on the shoulders of the Good Shepherd is a symbol of the soul of the deceased being borne by Our Lord into heaven; whereas the two sheep accompanying the Shepherd represent the saints already enjoying eternal bliss.
