About Us

Created on August 29, 1917, the Palm Springs Cemetery District operates two cemeteries: the Welwood Murrary Cemetery in Palm Springs, near the O’Donnell golf course and Desert Memorial Park in Cathedral City. These public cemeteries serve residents of Cathedral City, Desert Hot Springs, North Palm Springs, Palm Springs, Sky Valley, Thousand Palms and most areas of Rancho Mirage.

The Palm Springs Cemetery District was formed under Health and Safety Code 9000 and has served the citizens of Riverside County since 1917.
