This Municipal Cemetery contains the remains of many pioneers and leaders of the city of Lansing. It's rolling hills and valleys are remnants of a glacial moraine. There are several microenvironments within the cemetery and there is a plethora of flora and fauna; wildlife includes foxes and eagles. Opened in 1874, this cemetery also includes remains moved over from the city's first cemetery, Oak Park. Monuments and markers range from the very simple to the mausoleum of the R. E. Olds auto pioneer family. There is a Civil War veterans section, which also contains remains from the Spanish-American War, and a Firefighters Memorial section. The new Fratcher Memorial Garden encompasses a columbarium wall, a cremation tower section, a fountain, a gazebo, benches, wandering pathways, and several flower beds. Monuments and markers are made from a variety of materials, including sandstone, limestone, marble, granite, and zinc. Styles range from extremely ornate to very basic. Much of the history of the city of Lansing can be found in the names of those at perpetual rest in this peaceful place.
