For generations, caring and compassionate staff at Evergreen Washelli Cemetery have served the needs of Seattle and surrounding community residents. Located in a historic community, the name honors America's Native American past and is reminiscent of a quote from the famous story of Hiawatha. Honor and dignity are the focal points of service provided by staff at Evergreen, whose Indian name literally translates into The Cemetery of the Land of the Hereafter.

The beautiful name is backed by a beautiful property, with a variety of locations, lots and burial options for grieving family members, loved ones and friends. The cemetery is divided into large sections, and offers upright monument memorials, ground level memorials as well as family estates, depending on location.

The grounds at Evergreen Washelli also offer lawn crypts, traditional ground burial as well as entombment in the San Juan Mausoleum. Staff at Evergreen offer individuals and their families a variety of options regarding memorialization as well as final resting placement including the San Juan Mausoleum niches, a Tree Ring Cremation Garden, traditional cremation gardens, which include Memory Glen, as well as a columbarium with glass front niches that offer individualized and personal memorialization for grieving family members.

Since 1884, the cemetery property has offered a variety of burial options for residents of the Seattle area. With a full service Veterans Memorial Cemetery begun in the late 1920s and a funeral home developed in the early 1970s, Evergreen Washelli Cemetery also offers endowment care, meaning that the grounds will be paid for and cared for in perpetuity, Evergreen meets the needs of Seattle's multicultural and multidenominational residents.

Dozens of sections and hundreds of acres of property offer one of the largest and most beautifully maintained properties in the Seattle area. Groundskeepers take obvious pride in their ability to maintain the property, and dozens of drives and pathways facilitate both car and foot traffic.

Located due north of downtown Seattle, visitors may reach the cemetery property by taking Interstate 5 north from downtown Seattle. Surrounded by Puget Sound to the west and located between Seattle and Richmond Highlands to the north, travelers may exit on North Northgate Way, with a turn north on Aurora Avenue North.
