Cemeteries in Feasterville-Trevose, PA: A Guide for Families
|
By the Abby Rose Inc. Team
Deciding where a loved one will rest is one of the most important parts of making final arrangements. For families in Feasterville-Trevose, Pennsylvania — part of Lower Southampton Township in Bucks County — that decision most often comes down to a choice between two well-established memorial parks, each with its own layout, standards, and approval process.
Understanding those memorial parks can also make choosing the right headstone much easier. Before ordering a memorial, it helps to know the park's rules on size, materials, placement, and installation.
Abby Rose Inc. works with families throughout Feasterville-Trevose and the surrounding Bucks County area to design and install personalized headstones, monuments, and grave markers.

Memorial parks in Feasterville-Trevose
Families across Feasterville-Trevose most commonly choose between Roosevelt Memorial Park and Sunset Memorial Park, both large, well-maintained memorial parks serving Lower Southampton Township and the surrounding communities.
Roosevelt Memorial Park
Roosevelt Memorial Park is one of the established memorial parks serving Feasterville-Trevose families, with its own defined sections, monument standards, and approval procedures. Because larger memorial parks are typically laid out with consistent rows and landscaping in mind, Roosevelt maintains particular standards for monument size and base type that families should confirm before finalizing any design.
Sunset Memorial Park
Located at 333 County Line Road, Sunset Memorial Park is another primary option for families in the area, with sections that reflect a range of monument styles from upright headstones to flat, ground-level markers. As with Roosevelt, current specifications for materials and dimensions should be confirmed with the park before a memorial goes into production.
The broader cemetery landscape in the area
Lower Southampton Township — home to Feasterville, Trevose, and Oakford — has roots dating back to 1703, when it was established as one of William Penn's original inland townships. The township split into Upper and Lower Southampton in 1928, and the historic village names have persisted ever since. Beyond Roosevelt and Sunset, the wider area around Feasterville-Trevose includes a number of smaller, older cemeteries and churchyards that reflect this long local history — a reminder that not every burial ground here is a large modern memorial park. Families researching an older family plot in the area may find it connected to one of these smaller, historic sites rather than to Roosevelt or Sunset.
Choosing a memorial for a Feasterville-Trevose cemetery
Once a family has identified the memorial park and gravesite, the next step is determining the right type of memorial for that specific location. Requirements can vary between Roosevelt and Sunset, so families should always confirm the applicable rules before finalizing a design. Important considerations include:
Memorial dimensions
Permitted monument types
Granite or bronze specifications
Foundation requirements
Installation procedures
Lettering and design restrictions
Religious symbols
Cemetery approval procedures
At Abby Rose Inc., we help families work through these details before any design is finalized.
Types of memorials available for Feasterville-Trevose cemeteries
Upright headstones
Single upright monuments remain a traditional choice for individual gravesites and offer generous space for names, dates, inscriptions, religious symbols, and portraits. Explore custom single upright headstones.
Slant markers
Slant markers have an angled face that keeps inscriptions easy to read while sitting lower than a full upright monument. See custom slant markers.
Flat markers
Flat, ground-level markers are common — and sometimes required — in newer sections of both Roosevelt and Sunset Memorial Park.
Double and companion headstones
For spouses or family members sharing a gravesite, a companion monument creates a unified memorial while still leaving room for individual names, dates, and inscriptions.
Mausoleums and crypts
Some sections of larger memorial parks allow above-ground entombment. Abby Rose also designs custom mausoleums, including single crypt, family crypt, and walk-in styles. Explore custom mausoleums.
How cemetery requirements shape memorial design
A design approved at Roosevelt Memorial Park may not meet Sunset's requirements, and vice versa — dimensions, foundation specifications, material, and installation procedures can all vary between the two. Abby Rose Inc. supports families through design, granite selection, engraving, cemetery coordination, delivery, and installation.
