Memorial Garden

Ashes may rest in the Memorial Garden, which is situated on two acres just north of the Terraces, between the Rose Garden and the Hanes Lawn.
The entrance is a Duke blue stone courtyard and bench, augmented by perpetually flowing water.  A gentle, winding path leads from the courtyard up a wooded hill to a cul-de-sac.  The path, bordered by azalea, camellia, osmanthus, narcissus, among other shade loving plants, is edged by stone inscribed with the names of those whose ashes rest in the Memorial Garden.


Additional information and explanation of the charitable contribution required may be obtained by contacting   Jeffrey Yohn, 668-1711 or jeff.yohn@duke.edu.
