Hendersonville Memory Gdns Funeral Hme & Crmtn Ctr

Beautiful resting place… Not really hard to find the sites… It’s pretty much right behind the funeral home right off one of the sidewalks

While it may be odd to Unilocal a cemetery, this one was a sort of pilgrimage for my 10 year old daughter and myself. We are both great fans of Johnny Cash, and the visit to his gravesite was something my daughter had been wanting for several years. At the end of March we drove the 6 hours to go and pay our respects. We chose to park and find the location of Johnny and June’s graves ourselves, rather than ask an employee. It was a beautiful day and the walk through the memory gardens was incredibly pleasant. The grounds were kept very clean and well manicured. I’d recommend wandering a bit once you’ve visited the Cash graves, as several members of the Carter family as well as other Nashville and country music legends are laid to rest here, as well.

Pilgrims to this hallowed, hill-​top cemetery need only drive a few minutes outside Nashville proper. Though not well signed from the road, the staff at the funeral home are friendly and patient when directing your driving. All are welcome, regardless of dress and without pretense, to enter the office for walking directions and general info.
Whether you are here to see the grave of Johnny Cash and family, one of the many other musician here, or to visit a deceased loved one you will find a relatively quiet venue for thought and remembrance.
