Located in Jackson County, Mount Moriah Cemetery is one of the most beautiful and well-maintained cemetery properties in Missouri. Situated under the endless blue skies of nearby Kansas City, green lawns, statuary, wrought iron fencing and well-placed trees, flowerbeds and walking pathways offer visitors to the cemetery property a glimpse into the dignity, pride and obvious care with which staff and members of the cemetery take care of their property.

Today, Mount Moriah Cemetery is a proud member of the Dignity Memorial network of cemetery and funeral service providers, the largest in the United States. Since the early 1920s, staff at Mount Moriah Cemetery has met the nonsectarian needs of Kansas City and surrounding communities.

The beautiful woodland surrounding the property as well as the obvious care with which groundskeepers maintain the property offer visitors an always well-kept and groomed property throughout all seasons, and staff strife to be helpful and understanding when supporting grieving family members and loved ones.

Among the most notable structures on the property is the huge stone mausoleum, chapel and cremation interment niches as well as a multitude of memorial benches, landmarks and memorials scattered throughout the property. A large marble statue with bronze plates honors the memory and sacrifices of all military service branches, placed against a beautiful backdrop of deciduous native trees that bloom in riotous colors of russet, gold and red in the fall.

The property offers a variety of locations, all beautiful, with meandering pathways offering easy access to visitors traversing the property by foot or car. A beautiful pond on the property is also home to many area ducks and native geese, graced with a waterspout and surrounded by memorial benches that offer spectacular views in all directions.

Mount Moriah Cemetery is the final resting place of many area notables; including television broadcast journalist Walter Cronkite, Korean Congressional Medal of Honor Recipient Jack Davenport and multiple sports figures, congressional representatives and Stover candy founders Russell and Clara Stover.

The acreage of Mount Moriah Cemetery is located due west of Lee's Summit and slightly southeast of downtown Kansas City along Interstate 470.
