Remember the Reposed

"The Novo-Diveevo Cemetery is the largest Russian Orthodox cemetery outside of Russia. The cemetery provides a glimpse into Russian history [...] In keeping with Orthodox traditions, all graves and monuments are required to display a cross as the focal point. Only persons of a Christian faith are permitted to be buried within this cemetery."

"Located at Holy Trinity Monastery are three large cemeteries, with one more presently under construction. Many of the faithful find great consolation in laying to rest their loved ones in the prayerful care of the Monastery with its beautiful and uplifting surroundings. Not only visitors but the monks and seminarians as well can be seen walking in the cemeteries [...] Only Orthodox Christians are allowed to be buried within our cemetery."

"Dating from 1719, the Cemetery is also Washington’s oldest cemetery and was designed as part of the rural cemetery movement first advocated by the architect Sir Christopher Wren in 1711. The burial ground in the churchyard’s urban space, with its natural 86-acre rolling landscape, functions as both cemetery and public park. This, the Cemetery’s famous residents, and stunning variety of sculptures and monuments make Rock Creek Cemetery a place of pilgrimage for people of all faiths."

"Glenwood is a place of solemn beauty, conscientiously maintained, and with many choice sites available at modest fees. It is bordered by North Capitol Street on the west, Franklin Street on the north, Lincoln Road on the east and Prospect Hill on the south."
